Chalk painted furniture

This end table was an old oak piece that had water damage due to fun loving children. I loved the look after sanding edges and glazing.

Look for furniture with texture that can be accentuated when it is glazed. I used a rubbed bronze spray paint on all the original handles.

This is the top of the dresser as it was originally. I forget to take pictures until after I had started the project.

Outdoor furniture was one of my favorite changes.

 I took the table apart and used oiled bronze spray paint on the metal
