So excited to be back after a LONG hiatus from my craft posts. If you haven’t already heard, I became a contributor for Kix Cereal writing craft party posts!! Now 10 years later, I want to paint everything in the house a light shade. My first major piece was this ‘Pesky’ sofa table and I LOVE how it turned out! I’m been making my own chalk paint for a few crafts I’ve already posted… I just didn’t want to spend the EXTRA money, so I made my own.
On a trip to Michaels, I noticed they started selling the Americana Decor chalk paint. You’ll love how I made-over these Dollar Tree clipboards!
Quick Tip: When waxing, all you have to do it rub it in ALL OVER the piece you painted.
I decided I wanted a lighter “aged” look to the piece, so I just sanded around the EDGES with a 200 grade sandpaper. I’m SO excited to start working on some other pieces of furniture in my house, like this easy side table makeover. Time to get rid of all that DARK CHERRY WOOD and brighten up the place!
