ASCP on a Brick Fireplace

I recently convinced my Mom that here red brick fireplace would look great with a wash of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. I used the Pure White, thinned it down with water and applied it as a wash. It was a wonderful transformation! Even my Dad liked it when I finished and he had been skeptical! Four hours and one quart of paint = one great update
Painting a brick fireplace with ASCP
Using a big red cup I mixed the paint with water - about half and half - maybe a bit more paint than water. I just mixed water till the paint was drippy when I pulled the brush out of the paint.

The white brick makes the decor on the shelf pop much more than the red did,
A Peek into the entry
The white is so much more cheery and bright and we are loving it still!
