How to turn orange wood furniture into pottery barn look-a-like! Easy White wash tutorial

Here’s how I did it!
removed all the brass hardware & accents
scraped off all the old varnish with my carbide scraper
sanded off the remaining finish with 120 grit, working my way up to 220
applied @realmilkpaintco wood wax into the inside of the chest to moisturize & renew the wood! It made such a difference
generously applied #realmilkpaintco soft wax in WHITE to the outside of the chest in a circular motion
I buffed off the excess white wax with a clean lint free cloth - an old teeshirt would work too!
I polished the old brass hardware with some brasso & steel wool

Now… what do you think?!?! This was a client commission but I truly love how it came out. It gives the white wash look but with more protection with less work AND cost. Talk about a life hack, haha!

How much would would you pay for this piece?
