Ok! Happy Halloween Everyone!
Today I wanted to share some knowledge about refinishing, or polishing your vintage hardware. Not a super long post because it is really not that difficult to do!
Now, I have done all of it. I have added hardware to pieces that didn’t have hardware in the first place. I have kept the vintage hardware with a refresh, and I have completely changed out the hardware look and size on a piece.
I honestly believe that the hardware is the frosting. The glitter. The jewelry. The cherry on top. Ok. You get it.
Totally just kidding! Here it is! We went with the copper wax. It looked so rich on this piece and the contrast was so incredibly elegant. If you are asking yourself “Oh my God, WHAT is that amazing colour??” The answer is Cast Iron by Fusion Mineral Paint. It is one of my favourites and never fails me. The top is stained with Jacobean stain by Minwax.
Here is another piece I did where I spray painted the hardware in a flat black spray paint. It’s honestly the best brand I have used.
This is another Stunning piece that my client kept the vintage hardware. These are also a copper wax.
