I found this tote many months ago and enjoyed the natural patina, but after using a custom mix of Miss Mustard Seeds milk paint in Tricycle and Linen I knew this would look amazing on this sweet tote.
Pink seems to be the color lately, although I will be painting some pieces that are not pink.
It’s interesting how colors can change depending on the surface you paint, and the custom mix you make with it.
Yes this is the same paint combination I used on my last tote.
I love the rustic worn look of this piece.
Adding ball jars filled with flowers is one of my favorite uses for these totes.
I also like to use these to keep extra cloth napkins and utensils.
This tote will be making an appearance in the shop soon!
