This end table has been around for a while. Sitting beside Audrey's bed! Useful and good storage for paperwork but tired and worn out! I recentlyread about Annie Sloan chalk paint and was eager to try it out! I had read that the coverage was so good that there was no need to prep the furniture by stripping or sanding!! I only needed a clean, dust free surface and I could get directly to the fun part - painting! And so I did!
I didn't have the special Annie Sloan chalk paint brush so I used an ordinary Ace hardware one. But it worked! Coverage was nice and not much odor to the paint. No heavy fumes! I love the color! This is called provence! It just makes me smile!
After the paint dried which was extremely fast, I applied a layer of furniture wax. I used Tre Wax, a clear paste wax. I had it on hand. I also have not purchased the Annie Sloan wax. I will eventually. I am excited to see how it compares! I think it came out beautiful! Not bad for a Saturday afternoon project!
