Black Painted China Cabinet

If you’re new around here, you may not be aware of my painted china cabinet obsession.  If you have been around a while, you may be tired of hearing of said obsession.

There’s this one painted in Annie Sloan Chalk Paint

and this one in high gloss white

and this fella in Kelly green (which is easily my favorite)…

At any rate, I have a black painted china cabinet beauty to share with you:)

Mmm-mmm, I just love it so much.  That swan print fabric makes me swoon.

This was my first time using Fine Paints’ satin sheen.  I can’t articulate how great their paint is.  It’s something you just have to experience.  As woo woo as that may sound, it’s simply the truth.  I’ll definitely be using satin black again!

Thanks so much for coming by!
