I just couldn’t resist featuring two pieces from Shizzle Designs…a Provence buffet (it was her first!)
and an Emperor’s Silk console.
Paris Grey dresser (and munchable cutie!) by Chronicles of a Craft Crazy Mom
Coco & Old White Hutch by The Shabbiest Chick
Aren’t those all soooo great???
I can’t wait to show you the piece I finished one day last week, but to my dismay, I have a little case of the sniffles, or something like that.
I’ll have to settle for showing off your work! I hope you’ll visit all these gals and show them some love…they deserve it!
Stay tuned–the party won’t be paused forever. Until then, keep your furniture questions coming to shaunna@perfectlyimperfectblog.com (don’t forget to send pics).
Go on, go paint something already.

Wow I love that last one! I painting one similar now with old white …I hope it comes out half as good as that! I wish the paint was sold in stores!
I know…that hutch is fab. It might be dangerous for me if I could find it in stores.

LOVE LOVE LOVE all of them! Thanks for sharing. I hope you get to feeling better!
You’re welcome, LIsa….thank you for the well wishes!

I am very excited about your post. I found Annie Sloan Chalk Paint at a local antique mall! It was $38.50 per can. I don’t think that is a bad mark-up at all. It is much better than a large shipping fee. I urge everyone to check their local antique shops…you never know! Hugs, Jan
Thanks for the tip Jan!

I am addicted to this paint! I don’t know how I ever painted anything before. And the colors are unbelievable. Feel better!
I really feel the same way, Catherine! I really, really love it…don’t know if I’ll ever go back.

You just can’t go wrong with this paint. That subway dresser is inspired! Not to mention the totally adorable little girl. 🙂

such beautiful pieces, I especially love the coffee table with chalkboard paint….genius! I’d paint my whole house in chalkboard paint if my hubby would allow it! hehe
Hello Shaunna,
I agree with Jan…do check out your local antique shops. They just might carry ASCP. I have two booths in a Warrenton, Va. antiques mall and I just became a stockist for Annie’s fabulous paint.
I will be carrying ASCP, brushesry proud, waxes and all that good stuff in my space…I’m so darned excited!!!!!!
Fabulous furniture features and they should all be very proud.
Get better soon!

I’m a little behind on some blog posts. Congratulations on your wonderful appearance on Nate, Shaunna! You did a great job and are adorable! I love all these chalk paint projects. All are beautiful! I love the Paris Gray dresser! The little girl is a doll, too.
Thank you, Allison! It was sure a fun day!

Oh my WORD ~ You just made my day! Thanks so much for including my hutch in your fab features! Feel better quick!
You’re welcome, Chrystal! It’s one of the prettiest hutches I’ve ever seen….I have it pulled up for another post, too. BEAUTIFUL!

All of these are fantastic and definitely show the versatility of chalk paint. Thank you for sharing these features!
OMG,OMG,OMG,OMG!!!! Thanks so much for featuring my dresser project! You are pretty much my chalk paint hero. I’m feeling so blessed. Hoping you feel better soon.
P.S. Your kiddos are TOTALLY munchable cuties also!
Maria, you’re SO welcome!!! I love it…and your cutie!

I just finished my first AS painted piece. LOVE it !!! The color is so rich…Emperor Silk with a dark wax finish. Tomorrow I will be attaching the doors to the armoire and will take a photo for my blog. It was the best $17 I ever spent! 🙂
Thanks for the tutorial on using the AS paints. It was so helpful.

Oh my GOSH Shaunna!
You just made my heart drop out of my chest! When I started reading the words on this post I thought to myself, “self, wouldn’t it be cool to have Shaunna feature my furniture some day”? So I’m tooling along talking to myself “hmm that’s an interesting color combination” and “there’s my favorite subway dresser”
…and then as I scrolled down – I was like “what?” and then I was like “huh?”. Hey, that’s MY blue dresser! heart all pounding, beaming ear to ear AND THEN… I see the top part of my red buffet! Okay, it’s official! Bring in the defibulators already ’cause my heart has stopped and I must be in Heaven already!
How cool! How totally honored I am to have you, the sweet little gal who’s e-book inspired me to start my business in the first place, feature not one but TWO! Really? Would somebody just pinch me already?
I think I’m feeling a little bit of what you felt the morning you sipped your coffee and watched your segment on Nate’s show. Thanx for making my night! I just came in from the garage to eat dinner and the clock tells me it’s already tomorrow!
Thanx Shaunna! Thanx so much!
aw, Shelly….well, I LOVE them both!!! You’re HILARIOUS…but you’re more than welcome…you did a beautiful job on both pieces! Keep it up, rock star!
🙂

THANK YOU so much for the mention of my mirror! 🙂
I was inspired by that Subway art dresser and Lindauer Design’s challenge to copy it…so I did! 😉 Mine is a take on the DC subway stops. You can see and read about it here: http://www.notestoanne.com/2011/11/dc-subway-art-dresser.html
Thanks for all the inspiration you provide…and encouragement!
All the best!
Hi! I love ASCP and thought I would share my latest project with it. The paints and waxes can completely transform a piece! http://recycledlifeinteriors.wordpress.com/2012/04/26/cinderella-is-ready-for-the-ball/
This answers a LOT of questions! I had heard about chalk paint, and actually “accidentally” came across it when I was out shopping the other day. I have been very curious about it. I paint a lot of cabinets and this would save me so much time! Thanks for sharing…I’m sold!
I love the idea of having the right kind of storage and minimising clutter, the kitchen units are great, particularly the wicker storage baskets!
