French Chair Makeover in Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan in Old White

I found this fabulous chair at my local Restore. It is perfect for an upstairs sitting area that I am currently working on. I painted the chair with Annie Sloan Chalk paint in Old White, distressed and sealed with clear wax. More photos are on my blog with post details.
I am still undecided about the leather. I am going to leave as is for now until I finish the other chair. I may leave as is, paint the leather or reupholster.
The leather is a champagne color. It looks a bit different in my home than the photos show.
This is our sitting area on the upstairs landing. It is a work in progress! The antique sewing cabinet is being moved and a small side table will take its place. The chair to the left will be painted and slip covered.
Up close details with light distressing in Old White.
