Back when I introduced my little Florence side table to you, I promised more details on the gilding I used…
I’ve never used much gilding, as my style leans toward farmhouse & cottage, and a little less to French.
BUT…this stuff?
It was amazing. It took that little side table from a plain-Jane paint job to a boho-chic number. Plus? I simply used my finger to apply it…it glides on like silk, and looks much more natural than any other metallic gilding I’ve ever used. I keep looking around for things to gild now!
Here’s two of my favorite projects from around the blogosphere (and my fellow Chalk Paint™ stockists!):
I also love that it can be antiqued with dark wax–and just like Chalk Paint–takes on a whole new look.
I had to share the words of the gal who brought it to the states–meet Virginia (I know!) from The Southern Institute of Faux Finishing….
************************************
“I was lucky oh so long ago to have a friend doing mission work in Paris. Yes, I know, quite the sacrifice. While visiting her one winter we decided the kitchen in her fabulous Paris apartment could use a lift. She grabbed her shopping bag on wheels and off we went to the metro to catch the blue line St-Michel/Notre Dame station. As we walked on a few yards I was astonished to find that we were walking across the entrance to one of the world’s most famous and beloved cathedrals Notre Dame. I had seen pictures in my art history books in school but there I was walking past just like thousands of Parisians do every day.
It was a surreal experience for me to be walking on stones placed over 800 years ago yet casually walking to the department store to buy paint. We continued a few more blocks and arrived at one of my friend’s favorite shops, the BHV. Lordy, lordy was the only thing I could say. This was the most astonishing “paint” store I could ever imagine.
Talk about a kid in a candy shop! I felt like I was Tom Hanks in the movie “Big” during his first week of work. I can’t understand three words in French but these jars and cans were speaking my language loud and clear. I was loading up the little shopping cart so fast my sweet friend had to just get out of my way and wait her turn. I did finally come to my senses and moved on to the task at hand. We bought a regular can of paint and headed back to work on the kitchen.
My most prized purchased turned out to be the gilding wax I picked up not even knowing what it was or how to use it. Once I got home and started playing around with it I saw that it was magical. I promptly got online and attempted to purchase the other colors. I went through the entire shopping cart process and when I pushed purchase now….pooff, it disappeared. It seems that they didn’t ship to the USA. I was so very disappointed but life must go on. I cherished the tiny little jar of gold and only used it on projects truly worthy of the treasured wax.
Then about 5 years ago I was on trip to Scotland and wandered into an art store in Edinburgh. Low and behold stacks of gilding wax right there on the shelf. This time I wasn’t leaving a single precious one. I waddled up to the cashier and with eyes as big as saucers she inquired about my seemingly unusual purchase. I told her that I had let them get away once but never again! In a desperate attempt to have me leave just a few gilding waxes for her other customers she provided me with the manufacturers information and assured me that they would be happy to ship me as many as I liked to the USA.
As soon as I arrived home I contacted the company and sure enough they were willing to ship the waxes to me. I have been purchasing them ever since and love them just as much today as that fateful day in Paris when I first fell in love. I just know you will love them too. Inquire about them at your local Annie Sloan™ Chalk Paint (Tm)shop. Both Shaunna and I have stocked up so that you will not be disappointed!”

I like the Empire gold!
I posted the wax on Face Book and pinned it.
I have only played with king gold in a workshop, but would LOVE to use any of the colors. They are are fabulous!!
Oh my goodness! I NEED these! The Empire Gold would be perfect on the little side table I just finished….imagining the endless possibilities with these little beauties!
Hard to choose. I’m leaning at the moment toward Empire Gold. But can easily be swayed at any moments notice
Love the King Gold! It warms up any piece I’ve used it on….this is my new MuSt HaVe!!
OH MY, what fun I could have! Hard to pick a favorite color, but the silver would be a fabulous start!
Love the empire gold!
I would love the gold…b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l!
Oh…I love this! I am like you, this would not fit my style most of the time, but I know of a few pieces right off hand that I would love to gild. I love all of the colors, but I think I’m going to go with the Empire Gold as my fave…for now.
Empire Gold:)… but if you wanted to know my personal favorite color overall, its green (any variation of it).
silver!!
I just checked, and there are a few Annie Sloan retailers near me…the closest in High Point, NC (just down the road), but of course, I would like using my online retailer, Perfectly Imperfect, most! 🙂
I love them all!!!! But if I have to pick I would say Reniassance ( but I really like the silve too!).
I love the Renaissance Gold. I can think of a million places to use this.
the Renaissance Gold ALL THE WAY!
Love the Empire Gold! I could use it on a piece I tried painting that just needs the wow factor added to it. This would be perfect.
Love the gold and silver….Pinned it!
Love this!!! I really would like to try all of them!!!!! But if Ii have to pick a favorite it might be Renissance Gold.
Must have, want, need the gold!
I love the silver! I found my store, The Denim Rose, on the website.
ooooooh….it would ADD sooo much character to whatever I choose to put it on. I’m actually painting a landscape scene on a curved front desk with a bookshelf in the front! How luscious is that??? I planned on adding the gilding to it and this would be soooo perfect!!! Can you hear my excitement! if not, call me and I’ll let you hear it!!!!
I found my retailer……….Color Me French @ Henry’s of Bolingbroke
6009 US 41, Macon, Georgia 31004
I will be picking some up at The Junk Bonaza if I don’t win,
I’ve been ordering from http://www.fauxfinishbiz.com/ for the past year now since I live in Auburn, and sometimes I order from Stylish Patina if Faux Finish is out of the color I need.
I love all of them (someone told me the other day that the older you get, the more you like bling!) but I think my favorite is the Renaissance Gold. Just has a rich, royal look to it! Thanks a bunch and I love your blog. I stalk you on a regular basis, but not in a bad way.
Shared to Facebook………..;)))
Yes I found A.S. chalk paint in Troy, AL and I LOVE the empire gold! I cannot wait for workshop either…:)
Oh and I pinned to Pinterest!
you can find pics of my curved front desk on my fb page………. Denise Coard 😉 So happy to be here today!
Posted on my Vintage Resurrections Facebook Page!
Oops! Here’s the link to the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/VintageResurrections/posts/101613386655344
I’ve seen the finished results of these online and they are so pretty. My favorite color is the Empire Gold. I’m sure there are plenty of things in my house i could use it on!
Oh, did I mention that on that curved front desk, I will be adding a red tartan plaid fabric to the insets…..and oh yeah, the Renaissance Gold Gilding Wax!!
Silver. Perfect for a piece I have now.
I would love to try mixing them, I think the silver with one of the golds would look stunning! Have you ever tried mixing them? Would love to see that!
Renaissance Gold! It’s rich and dramatic! Would look super over darker colors….
My local retailer is over an hour away, The Purple Painted Lady in Palmyra, NY. I’m planning an all day trip as I’m new to ASCP. And I’m mentally collecting all the things in my home that need spiffy new personalities.
Oh my goodness they are all beautiful. If I had to pick…..hmmmmm silver!! Thanks for all that you share with us.

I’m a silver girl, but I love what you’ve done with the gold. Just got back from England to find my order from you of chalk paint waiting for me and immediately played around with it (nothing like traveling for 16 hours and then having your first priority being playing with paint). I can see I’m going to love this stuff!
I would LOVE the gold!!!! Thanks for the giveaway!….jlk

The closes retailer to me is Faux Studio Designs in Pelham, AL.. I’ve already been there a couple times.

Love the empire gold =]
I pinned this post. 🙂
I love the king gold!! It would look so great!
Looks like my closest retailer is a little ways away, but worth the trip!!

Oh Shaunna, I am so upset that I have been in Gulf Shores {I am from Arizona} but can’t sign up for your next ASCP class as we are in FL visiting my husbands folks. You don’t know how much I want to learn the techniques from YOU!
I simply must have the Empire Gold gilding wax. I love love love the way it looks on the Maison Decor piece.
Ok I think my fave would be Renaissance Gold… but it’s hard to choose, they’re all so tempting!
thanks for hosting the fun giveaway,
lauren, mercyinkblog.com
Hi Shaunna, it’s me again (the one from AZ who has been in Gulf Shores ordering samples from you and really wants to attend one of your classes before I head back west). I found that the only chalk paint sellers in AZ are in the Phoenix metro area (about 2 hours away from my house). Bummer – I’d love to have a little shop and sell it myself!
Why don’t you? Entirely possible!! Contact Anniesloanunfolded.com for info!

I love the Empire Gold. It looks so warm and beautiful with the neutrals painted on that gorgeous vanity! So pretty.
My stockist is Lynn, from Chalk It Up Norcross, here in GA. I drive an hour – one way – to get my paint from her; but it is worth it. She is so sweet and helpful and she does a great job teaching her classes too.
They’re all just lovely. I really like that Renaissance Gold … so very classic.

I love the silver and the empire gold. What a great product!
I was ecstatic when I recently found a ASCP dealer just up the road from me in Mesa, AZ! It saves me lots of time from having to travel to another stockist that was more like 20 miles away!
I love the Empire Gold! have the perfect piece that I want to try it on!!
Empire gold. Thanks for the chance to win…..pick me!
I’ve just started with Annie Sloan paint and look forward to using the Empire Gold gilding wax. Love your blog.

love that King Gold!
They are all beautiful but I think Renaissance Gold would be my first pick – so rich in color.
I checked and my nearest stockist is about 2 hours away 🙁
I’m a fan of the Empire Gold – beautiful!
Tweeted it! @DaisiesCrazies
love the silver but all these would all be fun to try
Love to start with Silver!!!
Empire Gold looks interesting to me! And I have to tell you that when I first heard about Annie Sloan paint I searched for a place in Indianapolis to buy it but couldn’t find anyone that sold it then. But my sister & family live in Mississippi; my next visit home I talked my sister into going to Virginia’s shop. Everyone was so helpful and we left with lots of information and Annie Sloan paint. I’ve been a fan for a long time and have painted a lot of furniture. I’ve been wanting to try gilding wax so I’ll keep my fingers crossed that I might win it. Otherwise I guess I’ll buy it and give it a try. Thanks for sharing so many wonderful tips and information.

My favorite is silver I think… It’s hard to decide!
Love how you chose to spotlight Sea Rose Cottage. It’s one of my favorite pieces. I love the silver gilding.
LOVE the Empire Gold. I am really getting into refinishing furniture and this would be great. I also make fine art and could use it in that arena as well.
Never used it before, but I’d LOVE to try the silver!
I was so excited to find a local Annie Sloan retailer less than 10 min from my house @ two old birds in raleigh!!!
Love, love, love the empire gold! Can’t wait to use it on some of my current projects!!!
Wish I could love it but I definitely liked you on fb!!
I posted the giveaway on FB!
Oh the King Gold. I am really looking forward to using this product especially after my first class next week.

I found my dealer in Roanoake TX and have a class there next week.
I love the silver! I am going to my first class as well next week. I’d love to see this on my pieces.
I like the Duck Egg blue in chalk paint and the silver in the gilding wax.
I had no idea these existed! Wonderful! I love the Empire Gold color but I am sure I can find uses for ALL the colors! 😀
Visited the website and found that the closet retailer is 2 hours away….Maybe a fun day trip is in order!

AND….I pinned it! 😀
They all look amazing but I am loving the silver!
I’m excited to try the silver…add it to some of my projects for an extra umph! Thanks for sharing! My local dealer is Tawnya at C’est Moi in Brentwood, TN-an amazingly beautiful boutique. ASCP is an answer to my prayers…straight from heaven! I’ve “re-loved” different furniture pieces and projects in the past the old fashioned way of sanding and priming then giving it character. Never experienced anything like the ASCP!
I pinned and posted the silver on FB. 🙂
Love Love Love the sliver – cannot wait to use – my favorite spot to visit as much as possible is my retailer SWEET SOUTH COTTAGE!! The nicest people in Tallahassee, FL!!!
I like the Renaissance Gold, not to gaudy.
I found a new dealer in Bozeman, MT which I am very jealous about because I wanted to be the first stockist in Montana!
I pinned it!
I love ALL of them! Would probably use the Empire Gold the most though!
Love the silver!
Love the empire gold!
I found my dealer! It’s actually Virginia, at either Southern Institute or her other shop, Paint. (Love Paint and have gotten tips from Virginia!)
Renaissance gold would go great on the new table I just picked up for my bedroom!
Empire gold! Love the paint demo with the beautiful French music.
I like them all! Thanks!!!
The silver is gorgeous. This stuff would be cool to work with!
I love Renaissance Gold and ASCP!
I like the Renaissance Gold
Je t’adore the renaissance gold!!!
They are all so pretty but I am so partial to silver!
King Gold is my favorite.
I found and visited my local retailer, the Rusty Chandelier!
Silver is my favorite. I think I would like to try it on something for my son’s room. I don’t think my retailer here in Canada carries the building wax, but I am not sure. I will have to ask her when I head down next week.
My stock list is Michelle at Diamond and Toads in St. Thomas Ontario, Canada.
Pinned the post
Been dreaming about the silver gilding wax. Hope I win!
I love the Empire Gold but the silver is gorgeous too!

I’m afraid this already ended, but I didn’t see a winner announced so i figured what the heck! I am redoing a vintage couch and table and chairs this month and am DYING to try these guilding waxes! GORGEOUS! I like the king gold and the renaissance gold! but I’d use all 4!
I think the silver is stunning!
