Ever really wanted to start on a project but realize you don't have the paint you need and you're too lazy to go to the store? Happens to me more often than I'd like to admit. Luckily there's a solution. Mix leftover paints!
I had just bought a small sample pot of Annie Sloan's Provence, but decided I wanted something a little richer. Remembering I had some Napoleonic Blue left over, I decided to give mixing a try.
I’ve never really mixed any colors of paint before, but I’m so glad I decided to for this project. I used a ratio of around 3:1 (3 parts Napoleonic and 1 part Provence), and I got the most beautiful blue.
I did some distressing around the edges and then finished the table in clear wax.
Enjoyed the project?

Anna Lee Cherry on May 11, 2015Wish the picture included a total before. Where did you cut the wood off? I agree with Leighanne that it is great but I love the knob.
