A Flea-Market-Chic Bedroom


Designed by Cathy Kramer

chest detail
 

Blonde to Brown

The original maple tone of this 1950s chest was too light to fit into the room's palette. Designer Cathy Kramer remedied the problem with a coat of chocolate paint and teal accents. Adding a large cushion to the top allows the storage container to serve as extra seating.

Tip: If your chest has a shiny surface, roughen it with fine sandpaper or liquid sandpaper before applying paint.
