Las Vegas: We know you LOVE Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan - Part 2...

...we left you on our last blog post...
...wondering how the chest would turn out...
...you saw a first light coat of Old White...
...and then the beginning of a light coat of French Linen...
...well...

...here it is...

...yes a stripe in Emperor's Silk...
...followed by clear wax and then dark wax...

...and quite a bit of distressing...
...both wet sanding and...
...also with sandpaper...

...no stencil needed...
...what do you think?...
...would you have added one?...

...Chalk Paint® decorative paint by Annie Sloan...
...makes a project fun and easy...
...we love our finished product...
...stop by and see it for yourself...
...you will want to get started on your next project...

...and all of our Bloom customers...
...from all over Nevada...
...and from all over the globe...
...we know you LOVE Chalk Paint® decorative paint by Annie Sloan, too...

...we have so much fun learning more and more about this fabulous paint...

...check out the working apron...
...sometimes we get messy...

...these are Miss Annie's colors...
...but we have been loving mixing custom colors...
...recently a client was redoing a bathroom...
...we mixed paint to match the sea glass in her new tile...
...what a gorgeous shade...
...for an old dresser that will soon house double sinks...
...when we can...
...we will share photos...

...yummm...
...there is nothing better than opening a new can...
...and getting started...

...we sell sample sticks...
...so you can take several home to see colors in your own home...

...the new wax brushes are simply marvelous...
...the pointy tip is such a help in getting wax into little crevices...

...we try to keep all of the colors in stock...
...you keep us busy with re-orders!!!...
...tell us...
...what is your favorite color?...

...be sure to check out current workshops...
...the summer calendar is a bit light...
...because of vacations...
...but...
...soon we will have things lined up for fall...
...there are lots of new ideas popping around in our heads...
...call the shop with your request for a new workshop, too...

...chest purchased this morning...
...by afternoon it took on a whole new look...

...first a light coat of Old White...
...then a light coat of French Linen...
...there was talk of a stripe...
...and perhaps a stencil...
...or not...

...stay tuned...
...hopefully a follow-up photo will be posted soon...
...meanwhile...
...stop in and let us know...
