Chalk Paint furniture

Meet Lillie!

Well, this is my newest creation.  I repainted it twice because I messed it up ROYALLY the first time.  I'm liking how it finally turned out.  I used Annie Sloan paint and it is SO amazing.  NO priming and NO sanding and absolutely NO prepping!  The stuff dries fast; can be distressed easy...and costs a bloody fortune!  I'm glad I tried it, but I'm about out. :( I've have lots more projects down the pike, and will be trying one of the recipes I have found to make your own chalk paint.  (Stay tuned for possible and likely upcoming furniture fiascos!)  My design, again, came from the Graphics Fairy.

Graphics Fairy Step Stool

If you have never visited The Graphics Fairy, you have missed out on something magical.  I have learned so much by visiting her blog; using her FREE vintage graphic downloads; and plain old been inspired by her creativity.  I made this stool using her design and the CitraSolv transfer method.  I've made several other pieces using her designs and this method to transfer images.  I'll upload more soon.
