My great grandfather built these pieces for my mom when she was little. My mom played with them, I played with them and now Sissy plays with them. All 3 pieces were dark in color and didn't match Sissy's room. I decided to shabby chic them to keep the old look while updating them to match her surfer themed room.
I forgot to take "before" pics because I was so excited to get started! Here's one I took before I got too far along!
This was my first time using chalk paint. I decided to try Echo's brand. There are at least 3-4 local chalk paint brands being sold here at the beach. I used Dirty Wax on the pieces after I painted & distressed them.
Sissy wanted to help paint. I hated to say no (because the paint is SUPER expensive) so I let her help paint the bed interior.
Once I get then back in her room, I'll take a good "after" picture.
