I can upload! Hooray!
I got my Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in the mail on Saturday. I ordered mine from Classic Wall Finishes out of New Jersey. I was so giddy to see it on the steps. But I couldn't paint anything because there were 11 yards of mulch to spread, a small section of sod to lay and a brand new vegetable garden to plant and figure out how to make it grow. AND, I wasn't sure about this paint because of the high(er) price and the fact that it needed to be ordered....I was a little nervous.
I painted a few things on Monday with it. I couldn't resist painting nearly everything in my house....and a new piece to sell.
I ordered Old White (duh) and Duck Egg Blue. I love each color.
Here's a couple quick before and afters:

This one, I don't have a before of, I don't know why....but it's the one that's available at White Butterfly Furniture....her name is Daisy....
Needless to say, I really like the paint! It's easy to use and goes on nicely. I did find that two coats worked best.
I wouldn't say I'm a convert from my easy to use Rustoleum spray paint, but I sure do love the colors that Annie Sloan has available!
It's kind of addictive! I'm getting ready to order more today, actually. :)
ReplyDeleteI Love your makeovers. I'm thinking about ordering some of this paint. I see it's the newest thing in blogland!
ReplyDeleteI might have to try some of that paint, I love that blue color! So, you can only order it online?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Since hearing about it I think I'm going to cave in too. I live in Dallas and the closest place that sells it is about 45 mins away.
ReplyDeleteYea! You found a giant mirror!
