Midcentury pieces are getting harder to find due to their increasing popularity. When I came by this one I tossed around several different ideas for refinishing it. I gradually settled on the idea below in my head.
I liked the idea of restaining the top because it was in such good condition, and I thought I would try a gray/yellow combination seeings its so trendy at the moment.
I modpodged this leafy grey and white paper onto the hidden drawer as well as lined the drawer with some gray and yellow fabric I had.
I used a flat paint for this; 'diamond' by Dulux in a deep charcoal colour. I finished with clear wax and buffed, but the sheen did not come up the way it does with chalk paint, so the piece is still very flat.
