My mom gave me an outdated oak table that she was ready to let go. I saw curves that would look fantastic with some chalk paint distressing, so that is what I did. See how some paint, crackle medium, antiquing medium and a change in hardware went into this fun furniture flip. As an aside, mom wants her table back now. Should I charge her?!
I removed the hardware and painted a layer of Chalky Finish in “Vintage” as the base layer.
Once that dried, I painted a thick layer of crackle medium from the Chalky Finish line. When that dried I painted a layer of Chalky Finish “Treasure”..
I rubbed away the top layer of paint on the edges in random places to show the base layer in a chippy paint kinda way. For the drawer, I followed the same steps, using the Treasure as my base paint and Vintage as the top paint layer.
I sealed the entire piece by brushing on Clear Creme Wax, followed by Aging wax.
I am loving the transformation! What do you think? Have you used this paint?
