The drawers are painted in my favorite white, BEHR's Magnolia Blossom. Then lightly distressed and finished off with a very slightly tinted wax.
The body and the knobs are a teal color that was probably the prettiest oops color I've ever picked up. I had a gallon of it, but when that's gone I'll likely have to go have it color matched I love it so much.
On the two small top drawers I used some classic glass knobs.
The top was stripped and stained with a single application of Minwax's Dark Walnut, which showed up lighter than normal on this piece, but I liked it. Of course I finished it off with some tinted wax and gave it a good buffing to get that aged gleam we all love so much.
