Let's Gossip

I have been on the hunt for a table like this for a while and finally found one!  What a beautiful piece of furniture!  I know I say that about all of the pieces that I find.  This piece I painted with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Napoleonic blue.  The fabric was old and had a little bit of a smell to it, so I re-padded and re-covered the seat.  This little gem would be perfect in a little nook or as extra seating in a room.  Really it would be great anywhere!  It will definitely be a conversation piece.  As always, let me know if you are interested!

   

   

Bedroom Set

I received these pieces as part of a set that I purchased for a customer. She only wanted the dressers (you can see them in a later post). Everyone paints these sets in a fresh coat of white. Which I like but I wanted to try something a little different. I used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Graphite. It is sealed with a clear coat of wax and a coat of white wax to bring out the detail.  This is a different look than what I usually try. But after looking at it, I think it would be so great in a boy or a girls room. In a girls room, it looks a little like stone so you could play on the stone castle look. For a boy it reminds me of blue prints. You could put maps with the blue print feel on the wall or blue prints of trucks and planes. Here are some links to some ideas:

The possibilities are endless! Anyway, I hope you like this unique look that I tried. It is for sale for $200. Contact me for more information.

If you don't like this look but have something of your own that you would like painted- let's connect and give your piece a fresh clean look! For more examples of my work, you can find them at PaintedOwlDesigns.blogspot.com and you can find me on Facebook and Instagram at @PaintedOwlDesigns

  

Have a seat. Take a load off-SOLD

This is a beautiful solid wood bench with STORAGE.  It would be perfect on you covered patio.  Or to add a pop of color to a mud room.  This bench was a love hate project.  I love the way it looks.  I hate painting those spindles.  I have already had someone driving thought the neighborhood stop me and ask about it as I was photographing it!!!  I mixed a custom color with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and sealed it with clear wax.

36 x 52 x 20

$175 without pillows.  If you would like the pillows- we can make a deal!

   

 

Chest of Drawers

I loved this chest of drawers the moment I saw it.  It was a little beaten up and needed some love. But I gladly took it off the hands of a college student who had started to tackle the project but could't finish it.
This Bassett chest of drawers is solid mahogany and has 5 working drawers.  The hardware is original and I just love how well they go with the new color.  I used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Coco. I finished it with a dark wax to add richness to the color as well as a protector.
The dimensions are 52 1/2in H  17 1/2 D 37 1/2 W
For Sale for $450
