Goodwill Find Turned Fab With Annie Sloan Chalk Paint

I found this interesting table at my local Goodwill and painted it with Annie Sloan chalk paint and it went from drab to fab! I now have a place to put my handbag, too!

Painting electric heaters

I just bought a small cottage. The electric heaters along the base boards are a little dates and slightly rusty. Can I paint them? Will the heat affect the paint?

Have a look inside this multi-colored mid-century rancher in California. Surprisingly, all that color actually works!

  • The paint color of the chevrons were beige.  I hand painted the chevron but I'm sure you could buy or make a stencil.
  • The table started out as a $30.00 walnut table from Walmart.  I primed and painted it white with paint I already owned.
  • I love how fun the table turned out!

Chevron Table

The chevron doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon. This table was done way over a year ago and still is one of my most popular projects

Sewing/Craft Room Cabinet Re-Do

It's amazing, what a can of paint and a little elbow grease can do!

Refinishing a 'gifted' upper cabinet for my craft/sewing room was easy & adds a lot of storage to a very small room

  • Our recently decorated master bedroom uses the same stencil as our old master bedroom!
  • Use stencil adhesive to keep your stencil tight to the wall and gap free.
  • See - the same stencil, just less contrast for a completely different look!
