Retro Redo - DIY

My closest friend was getting rid of this piece that had been in her basement since sometime in the 70s. Since we moved into a house for which I do not have enough furniture,  I told her I would take it off her hands. I hoped I could make something good out of it. I had heard about this amazing product that covers almost anything with only a little time and effort. I had almost thought it sounded too good to be true, but I thought it was worth a try. Was it ever! It really is amazing! My husband and I completed this project in less than an hour and a half. It took 1 coat of paint and 1 coat of wax. Done. It may almost be too easy to use. I now want to paint a million different things in my house..

For those of you wondering what this wonder product is it's called Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. In my city I could only find it one place. A cute little store Apple Box Boutique which, by the way, was another great find. Its an adorable place I hope to spend much more time in..

I am so happy with my brand-new old piece!

*ps.. Annie Sloan paints & Apple Box Boutique did not ask/pay/bribe me to review this product :), although I would have gladly accepted if they had*
