Lee on Oct 28, 2016I could send my kids over with a bucket of art supplies and they'll distress anything you want. Till then there is numerous articles and institutions on the web. Just dive in. You can't go too wrong. Choosing colors to compliment your decor. If you aren't happy with the first try--start over. You are the artist and you can't go wrong. The popular chalk paint has raving reviews. Hope to see your finished project soon.Helpful Reply
