You may remember this buffet my mom bought at a yard sale for 80 bucks. It’s an old Hepplewhite and was in great condition. The previous owner however had painted it a flat dark gray and there was a lot of wear on the paint. I also decided it needed to be lightened up for my home and also to show the beautiful detail that the flat dark paint was hiding.
The dark wax settled nicely in the texture of the chalk paint, don’t you think?
I have a disorder of some sort where I can’t leave things in one spot for too long. Am I the only one who does this?
So pretty!
So pretty!
Oh, what a beautiful piece. I liked it before but just love it now! What a nice job you did.

Musical furniture is the name of the game in my house. My poor husband never knows what he will come home too. I think it is therapeutic. Plus, when something gets used in another room, it is almost like you got new furniture! I played complete switcheroo with my family room and living room stuff this summer, and it has never looked better!

I love this! You've done an amazing job and it looks stunning! I've just finished a French buffet myself.
I really wish we had chalk paint here in Australia. Apparently Annie Sloan will be making the chalk paint in New Zealand soon so they'll be able to distribute to us! Yay!
