A Refinished, Refinished Armoire

Laura recently had a client who bought this armoire which had already been refinished by someone...

 Great shape, great storage and fun distressing!  The client, however, is a graphic artist and had a very specific look in mind for her armoire.  She wanted some personalized graphics on the doors.  Laura knows I've done some reverse vinyl projects in the past, so I agreed to take on the job.  I was thrilled when the jpeg of the graphics arrived.  One door would be a collection of fonts and the other, a very personal statement!  Here's the after...

 The right door are the fonts that this graphic artist lives by.  Here's a closer look...

 The other door is a statement about chocolate- she has to have it everyday, no matter what....

 To achieve this look all I did was import the jpeg images into my cricut using sure cuts a lot software.  I then cut the vinyl, placed it on the black doors and then painted over the vinyl  in heirloom white.  I use a pin to remove the vinyl immediately after painting.  

 

If you've been reading for a while you know I don't love to do commissioned pieces, but this one was so much fun!  I just love the creativity of our client and am so happy with the way this piece turned out.  Let me know what you think.  Love, Kelly.
