Trying Out Some Chalk Paint

My daughter has done some amazing pieces of furniture with chalk paint.

I really love the look so I wanted to give it a try too, but on a smaller scale.

I tried out some white on this little wooden rocking horse.

I'm pretty happy with the results, although the wax wasn't what I expected.

Pretty sticky stuff.

Anyway…I knew I could get the pretty "Duck Egg", by Annie Sloan, at www.nomadictradingcompany.net/  here in Punxsutawney PA,
so I purchased a quart to do some restoration projects.
By the way, The Nomadic Trading Company has tons of cool architectural salvage too.
I'm going to make a couple of candlesticks from these.

Another nice small project to try out the Duck Egg Blue.
