Say What? Another Duck Egg Piece?!?!

June 4, 2013 by Cassie 30 Comments

I am on a Duck Egg Roll!  Just Mix me up with some mayonnaise and chive!  Or not.

Yesterday I shared with you a duck egg chest I picked up at a yard sale.  Today, I am sharing the matching nightstand.  You can see the nightstand in this picture….

I decided to go with duck egg chalk paint again for three reasons:
 1. It would pair with the dresser if someone wanted to keep a set.
 2. It would also pair well with this table, if anyone wanted a pair of nightstands. (See below)

And…
 3. Because I love it, and you should, too.

So I gave it the old two coats, light distressing, clear wax treatment and that was that.  You will notice the pull is a little wonky, slightly bent.  I say it’s “vintage character”.  Here it is in its after:

That’s all for today!  I am off for a run, then to drop some items off at the barn, pick some more pieces up, Sawyer’s class’ reading and writing party, and soccer and dance tonight… Is it sad that I am already looking forward to bedtime for me tonight?  Have a great Tuesday!

    I’m going to steal your “vintage character” term and apply it to myself next time something’s a little wonky. I’d be attracted to that piece simply for that reason. Perfection is overrated!

    You should probably just paint everything duck egg. It’d be a good decision.
