I recently thrifted a boring breadbox from Goodwill as I have always wanted a bread box but never found one that I liked. It sat in my kitchen with just the plain wood look for a good 3 mos before I finally decided to paint it.
Let me just tell you... painters tape is NOT my friend! My paint bled all over the place so I had to free hand everything. It’s not perfect, that is for certain, but I really love how it turned out none the less.
