From black to white and green

I found this nicely carved old wooden box at a local flea market. It was black and the former owner wrote her name on it with nail polish. It looked pretty bad but it called out to me filled with potential. I scrubbed it to the wood and I decided to make it white. But then I thought green would be better. Finally I stopped somewhere in the middle and this is the result.

 

 

I want to make some nice floral drawings inside and I got some 3D red paint for that. I'm testing it right now, and if in the morning it won't smudge than I'll show you the sequel tomorrow.
