I have always avoided orange and yellow (except for some flowers and citrus fruits, oh, and of course egg yolks) but I recently bought a lovely duchess hall stand and when asked on Instagram what colour I should paint it, so many people suggested yellow!
I am not sure I could do the whole thing yellow...you all might have thought you'd come to the wrong place :) but I did paint it a sweet custom mix off white with sunny yellow popping through on the distressing.
Nothing like extending your self imposed boundaries and trying out a new colour (even if it is then layer with white paint)
It's bigger than it looks in the photos. Dimensions are 161 cm tall, 90cm wide, 40cm deep. The drawers are very practical and slide well. They are lined with cute paper.
How sunny are these sunflowers? Gorgeous. Making me happy.

Are you a fan of yellow? Need a new hall table?
If you are interested in purchasing this please send me an email.
I have been painting loads lately but not really getting around to photographing much. I'll sort out some photos to share soon.
Oh and here's the before photo
Have a great afternoon
