Boring Blanket Chest Gets a Makeover

My hubby's aunt had an old blanket chest that was pretty enough, but kind of blah. It has nice detailing that got lost in the brown finish. So a coat of Pure White and Louis Blue Annie Sloan Chalk Paint gave it an entirely new finish and made the details pop. More details on this piece can be found on my blog.

    Beautiful! Nice job... I don't think I've ever used Chalk paint before I didn't even know they made such a product... I will have to try that next time..=)
