I Transformed This Ugly Vanity Into A Gorgeous Piece of Furniture

I had NO idea what would be underneath this thick purple paint! I had to use SEVERAL methods to remove this paint, it was a mess! Chemical stripper, sanding, scraping... you name it, I tried it!
Once I FINALLY managed to strip all the paint and saw the wood underneath, I was inspired to give it a driftwood / beachy sort of treatment. It also allowed me to experiment a bit with Mr. Cornwall's Creative Colors natural pigments, which I blended into some Odie's Super Duper Everlasting Oil (and a touch of the Odie's Safer Solvent).
I used the colours Titanium and Up in Smoke, no specific recipe or amount; I was literally just experimenting with them. For the painted parts, I used Fusion Mineral Paint... a custom blend I created a while back... a light grey with a hint of green. I also added new hardware, and then used Fusion Mineral Paint's Liming Wax to lightly grey the wood AND the paint.
The resulting combination of all this is a beautiful beachy vibe, where the wood almost appears sun bleached, in a way. I LOVE how this turned out, but it's one of those projects that took much longer than expected.
