Master Bathroom Paint & Hardware

This was the Master Bathroom update with just paint and hardware. We could use the shower due to a large crack, but the vanity, floor, and walls got a face lift wuth paint while we saved to do the over-haul.

  • The beauty of chalk paint is no priming or sanding. It goes on top of a previous finish like 1960's antiquing.
  • I am not being compensated by these products. These are the supplies I chose. Maison Blanche, Wrought Iron chalk paint. CeCe Caldwell's clear wax and Annie Sloan's brushes.
  • I cleaned each chair with Krud Kutter. I was surprised at how much of the antiquing glaze came in this step.
