Latest Annie Sloan Projects

I didn't have alot of summer projects,

but this is one of them.

I bought it from a staging client who was selling nearly everything in her house

for a big move to Arizona.

It was solid brown, but I knew as soon as I saw it,

I'd chalk paint it!

That was sometime last fall.

Oh yeah, I paid $40.00 for it.

I just happened to get a wild hair a couple weeks ago

and thought "IT'S TIME!"

So I used the Annie Sloan Chalk Paint

that I had on hand 

and went to town on this beauty.

Ok so here's the recipe:

Base Coat: ASCP Old Ochre

Wash: Old White

Insert panels:

French Linen with a teeny tiny bit of Henrietta

Clear and Dark Wax

Eventually, I want to decoupage the panels.

So look for that to happen in, I dunno, two years, maybe?

And these two:

A handmedown dresser for Diana and an old chair....

The dresser and chair were both originally a cherry finish,

but look how cute they turned out?!

These were each done in ASCP Old White, Clear and Dark wax.

Simple, Simple.
