My mom gave me an outdated oak table that she was ready to let go.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?
No, you shouldn’t charge her! She GAVE you an opportunity to be creative, so give her the results of the opportunity!
Yeah Becky, I was kidding. I would never charge my mom wether she gave me the table or not!
