Tote Makeover

I knew I couldn't wait very long to get rid of the dark green on the wonderful tote I bought on Saturday.  I got out my Lowe's sample paints and got to work  changing it.   BEFORE AFTER I painted lightly over the green with a creamy white.  I then painted inside the sections with a misty green color as shown below.  Again, I didn't try for perfection because I want it to show its vintage look.  I sanded it lightly in places, and added Annie Sloan Dark Wax in spots and wiped it down.  Here's the little metal tag I bought at the same store.  It was only $3.50. (It's not staying on the tote) Look at that big knot hole.  Love that!! I like it better in white, than the dark green. If you look closely, you will see I caught the "blue" hour in this photo below. I just had to cover the green, so this will be fine now, though I may add graphics at some point.  I like it better ...
