OLD CHAIR MAKEOVER


As she sat there, she looked so tired and sad and dark.  Sooooo, out came the white chalk paint, and two coats later she was all bright and cheery.  I even covered the leather seat.  But, then, since I was on that Robin's Egg roll, and since she just happened to get in my way.............
my brush couldn't resist.  Oh, I just dry brushed some of the Robin's Egg over the white, allowing some white to shine through.  Then a little more until it was just right.  Of course I had to go back and sand a little to shabby it up.  I didn't put any kind of finsh on, since I love the soft look of chalk paint.


For right now, she's decided to sit a spell in my lil kitchen. 
Lovin it.
What cha think?
