Supply List:

1 Quart Duration Home® Interior Acrylic Latex Paint in Henna Shade (SW 6326) in Satin Finish

1 Quart Duration Home® Interior Acrylic Latex Paint in Gale Force (SW 7605) in Satin Finish

Purdy® XL™ Dale™ paintbrush

Scotch-Blue™ Painter’s Tape

With a little bit of tape work, Amy covered the metal accents and front-facing wood to preserve the original charm that captured her attention in the first place.

Gale Force (SW 7605) complements the wood’s natural hue and lends contrast to Henna Shade (SW 6326).

Amy’s inspiration for this project comes the typography on the sides the crate.

Carefully, she swept Henna Shade (SW 6326) onto the back of the crate to make the details of the crate stand out.

This cool vintage crate has history dating back to 1979. Now, with a touch of paint and a fresh perspective, Amy will give it a bright, new future.
