Six Drawer Buffet

My favorite look is a wood stained top with a painted body.

Many people have been asking "what is difference between ASCP and CeCe Caldwell's Mineral Clay Paints"? Here's just one:

The labels - The ingredients are listed on CeCe Caldwell's cans. It's simple to read and understand. There is a very long paragraph of Cautions on the AS can but no ingredient list. I've asked a few AS sellers what the ingredients are but I get circuitous responses. I don't think they know. I love AS paints - I feel much more comfortable knowing what's in the paint I use on my furniture and sell to my customers.

Well, she's done. Safely delivered to her new City Chic home in NYC - her new owner loves it.

It was a tough job but the end result was very satisfying.
