Ombre Painted Jewelry Armoire

Ombre is a girl’s best friend. Not really, but it could be. We have all heard the saying “diamonds are a girl’s best friend.” Naturally, they should have a fabulous place to be stored along with all a woman’s other precious jewels, gems, pearls and glittery mementos. What better place than in an painted jewelry armoire.

When I came across this standard brown jewelry armoire it was nothing special but it had an abundance of storage, drawers, hooks, and sections. So I decided to make it gorgeous and classy, I definitely did not want the other standard…white. My least favorite things have to be standard brown and standard white. I love painting in color. And what better way to embrace color than with a gradual painted finish! Have you wondered how to paint an ombre?

The body was hand painted a creamy steel gray and the drawers were finished in a subtle eggplant ombre. When using the ombre painting technique it’s easier to start with your dark color and go lighter as you work by adding white paint. Starting with eggplant paint the drawer that intends to be the darkest. You can paint your pattern from dark to light or light to dark.
The hardware was refreshed to a metallic silver/black pearl which complements the color palette of gray and eggplant ombre perfectly. It gives a hint of glam while remaining classy.
