Remember the coffee table preview? And my new profession of love for a certain paint?
Here it is. Annie Sloan’s Chalk Paint. The lovely and talented Miss Mustard Seed revealed it on her blog and we had spoken that week…I was sold to try it.
And after painting my coffee table and a few other odds and ends with it, I’m more than sold. It has the creamiest texture and applies so easily.
It can be applied straight to glossy finishes or varnished pieces like my coffee table. No primer. No sanding.
Really.
Now that we are (slowly) painting the whole downstairs white, I hated to paint it totally solid or white. I chose Old Ochre Chalk Paint, a light caramel color.
I then waxed it with one clear coat of Hannant’s Wax and one coat of Fiddes Dark Wax in Jacobean.
There will be plenty of time for tutorials and questions, but for now let me say this. This paint does naturally for a finish what I used to have to work quite hard to achieve. And because it’s sealed with clear and colored waxes, it leaves a piece full of character and hand-rubbed quality.
Definitely check out Miss Mustard Seed’s Chalk Paint review and her tutorial on waxing.
I also love how chalk paint distresses. It comes off in a powder and you’ll have so much control of the final look. I distressed the entire piece by lightly rubbing it with a 1/2 sheet of 220 (fine) sandpaper.
The finish is very french, and it’s funny to me how it changes as the light shifts. You can see that the color has some yellow in it, but now that I’ve waxed the entire piece, it’s looking more light tan…but with texture and character.
It’s nice to have a coffee table I’m proud to put great finds on…like this beautiful set of books and vintage stamp I snagged last week.
As soon as I choose some hardware for the table I’ll snap you a full living room shot. Speaking of that, come back this week for a virtual tour of some of our home. We’ll do 2 or 3 videos so you can see it “real-time.”
Now…on to the really fun part. Patty from Classic Wall Finishes, a stockist of chalk paint, is giving one of YOU a quart of chalk paint and a can of Hannant’s Clear Wax!!!

I think this might be the best giveaway ever! For me, at least! I’ve been attempting to be frugal by finishing up my stash of “to be painted” furniture with mistints, but I’ve been secretly counting down the days until my paint runs out so that I can stock up on Annie’s paint. Thanks Patty and Shaunna!

I recently was given two wonderful framed mirrors that were once part of dressers, but were saved from a flood several years ago. While they are perfect just as they are, I think they would benefit from a little creative painting.
Thank you for the opportunity to enter the giveaway!

I’m sure your are probably going to address questions in upcoming posts, Thanks!

I have a piece of furniture just waiting to be made over and I would really like to use this on it.
I’m dieting and haven’t had any chocolate for way too long, so the paint would take my mind (and hands) off of it for a while!! 🙂
Wow! That is a great giveaway and one that would surely make me pull out some of the projects I have been neglecting! That would get me over the hump! Loved seeing your video on waxing–you are just too cute!
Man. I would LOVE to be able to paint my furniture and have it look like yours, without all the work you “used” to do to make it look so fab! Maybe with this chalk paint….. 😉
Thanks for sharing and showing all your beautiful pictures! Would love to try the paint! I can’t wait to order some soon!
I would looooVe to try this paint! With summer coming I’ll have lots of time to dig into the projects I’ve been putting off all school year!
Are you sure you have enough space for all the comments? This is THE most beautiful coffee table i have ever seen. I have never used Chalk Paint and now I am really dying to. Please, let me a winner THIS time.
Chalk paint? This is the first I have seen it – this looks AMAZING! I hope I win!!
It’s just what I need to get started on a project!
I would love to win the chalk paint!! I have been wanting to order the paint but never einough money!! Oh well maybe I will win some!! Thank You so Much!!
I’ve definitely been wanting to try this paint! Hope I’m lucky!
Wow! That is amazing I so want to try that. I sure hope I win. I have lots of tables that can use some work.
I’ve been drooling over chalk paint all over blogland right now. I’m dying to get my hands on it! Thanks for the opportunity to maybe WIN it! woot!
I have to win this now since I just bought some of the Fiddes Dark Wax after reading this, LOL! I never thought paint would thrill me this much!
please enter me! i’m sold just seeing how great your coffee table turned out! thanks
I would LOVE to get my hands on this…I’m new to the crafting world and so far I’m having a blast! This would be MORE than a treat to try!
I would love to win this! I have spent the last week sanding and priming an old hutch. If only I had chalk paint instead!
I love your table and I can’t wait to see your house. I have wanted to order chalk paint ever since Miss Mustard Seed revealed it a couple weeks back. Any time you don’t have to do a bunch of prep work it’s worth paying a little more a product such as this. Sure hope lady luck sends it my way!
I would love to try this chalk paint. Your table came out beautiful and I know it was due to this paint (and your refinishing expertise). Thanks so much for the chance to enter this giveaway!!
I am continually amazed at the difference a good paint (and brush!) can make. Having never used chalk paint before, I am at once intrigued and eager to try it. I’ve noticed the different looks on Miss Mustard Seed’s pieces and would love to see what I can achieve 🙂 Blessings!
I’d love a chance to try chalk paint!
I have some painting projects to do and this paint would be great to use for that!
Thanks for the giveaway…
Karen
I would so love to try this paint! It sounds and looks amazing!
Would love to try this on our coffee table too!
Ooooohhh!! Lovely! I’m just finishing a desk that I’ve been brainstorming how to paint… I may have to try your look.
I want to win this sooo bad – cant wait to try it!
I would LOVE to try this paint on a china cabinet I’ve yet to tackle. Love all the pieces i’ve seen in blogland using chalk paint! Pick me! Pick me!
Sharon
I’d luv to be able to give this paint a shot! Your table is gorgeous in color and shape!
How do you ever go about choosing a winner with all these delightful comments? After reading most of them, I almost didn’t comment to win…..but then I thought :” I would REALLY like to win that paint!” I came back from my favorite place in the WORLD (Round Top, TX) last week with a UHAUL FULL of treasures to be painted. I’m one of those gals who uses chewing gum to hang pictures on the wall…so I definitely could use an easy paint to work with!
I would absolutely love to win. To not have each piece before applying the paint would be amazing.
OOOOhhhh I have been loving all of these reviews and really want to try this.
I just retweeted this. I think even if I don’t win this I will definitely have some of this in my supply.
WOW!! That table looks so awesome!!
Thanks for the chance to win!!
You coffee table looks beautiful! I am dying to try out this new paint, especially since it requires no sanding or priming – how great is that?!? Awesome giveaway!
Thanks for having these giveaways. How fun to wait and see who wins! I think the chalk paint is calling my name. 🙂
I seriously need your eye for design and skills with a purdy brush!
Would love to win!
I LOVE the way your coffee table turned out…..I would love to create the same look with a little side table that currently gets on my nerves everytime I look at!! 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway!
Oooh! Ever since I saw Miss Mustard Seed proclaim this as the best paint ever, I have been intrigued. Now I’m sold! I would love to try it out!!

This paint has been on my mind since Miss Mustard Seed spoke of it…thank you for the chance to win a quart!
I have also posted this on facebook, so count me in twice please..
thanks again,
Shaunna your coffee table looks amazing! It is a beautiful piece of furniture and the chalk paint just reinforces that, good choice for a piece to paint. Isn’t Patty just an angel to give some of this wonderful product away! I totally agree with your comment that “This paint does naturally for a finish what I used to have to work quite hard to achieve. “, so true. It’s almost effortless. I’ve only tried three colors but am putting together an order for more as soon as new colors are out. I have learned so much from Miss Annie about how to use and layer her colors by reading her books and Patty is so helpful with her wonderful suggestions! I am really looking forward to taking a class. Thanks so much for teaming up to do the giveaway!
I sooo want to try this, but can’t bring myself to order it until I use up some paint in my stash. I hope I win!
I have the perfectly imperfect blanket chest for this process! What fun it would be to make it beautiful.
I would love to try this! Thanks for the giveaway! You’re table looks awesome, btw. 🙂
I love your table! Great job! I would love to try some chalk paint!
I’m just starting to refinish furniture and I would love to try this! Thanks for the opportunity to win! =)
I bought a can and haven’t used it yet but so excited to start. I’d love to win another because i REALLY want to try their Louis Blue!
So beautiful. I am looking forward to rummage sales this summer. I am looking for some piece for my daughter’s room.
I have been dreaming about this paint since Miss Mustard Seed previewed it and then I saw it on your site (even though you wouldn’t say what it was, but I just knew it had to be chalk paint!). I would so like to try this out! Thanks for the giveaway and your table looks awesome!!
Since I ‘ve heard about this chalk paint I can’t sleep anymore thinking about how I’d use it. Please pick me so I will FINALLY be able to sleep :-))).
Ooh.. what a fun project! 🙂
I would love to try this paint. I’ve got a couple projects in mind.
Posted a link Facebook for my 2nd chance to win this great paint!!
I wish someone carried this locally. I just ordered some, but hate paying shipping!! Can’t wait to try it!!!
I my goodness, I would just be thrilled to win the chalkpaint! I have a depression era dresser that I want to refinish for a guest bedroom that we are remodeling and the colors are creamy white, pale turquoise, with red and orange accents. I would just love to have the opportunity to use the milk paint for that piece. I know it would turn out beautifully. Thank you all for considering me and I hope that I am fortunate enough to win. Blessings. Deb
Don’t enter me in the giveaway, but I just wanted to say how lovely your table looks!! Isn’t this paint the bomb? Yes. The bomb.
WOW!! I just bought an entire bedroom set of vintage 1970’s French Provincial style furniture (yes, the yellowish-white trimmed in gold…remember that?) to refinish for my daughter’s room. This would save me a million steps in refinishing…especially since it has a glossy finish on it. I LOVE that you share so many “inside” tips on refinishing furniture! Thanks a bunch!
I want to try this so badly…I think I just felt a little foam seep out of the corners of my mouth!
Wow, that is an amazing finish! Would love to try this on an armoire I just purchased. Thanks for a great giveaway!
yes, PLEASE! I would love to win some of this beautiful stuff! I’ve been wanting to paint my buffet and dinning charis for way way too long now and this would be the bomb-diggity!
This would make life so much easier-well not life, just some of those projects waiting to be finished!
In love with this! I will be buying some chaulk paint!
I cannot wait to get my hands on this paint! How amazing, it will really save time on stripping/sanding! Any ideas on how it will work on a dining room set? That is my next project!
Hey Katie, I think it’d be great! My table was slick and heavily varnished, and it went on like a dream. I would say to seal the top with several coats of wax since it will be used for eating. Hope that helps!
🙂

I stumbled across your blog a few months ago and now I check daily to see what you have posted. The beauty of your work has rekindled a love of all things old, chippy and need of a little TLC. It’s beautiful to see someone who has such talent and is willing to share their thoughts and inspirations!
I love the coffee table! This paint sounds awesome and I’d love a chance to try it out! New to your blog and I’m loving it!!!
Shared on Facebook 😉

I sit down every day and read, get inspired, and try to accomplish half the talent that you share with us. I love your style. I love your willingness to share about your life. Thank you for doing what you do. God is using you in a very big way that you may not know to what extent. Thank you.

Oooh…..I’d love to win this. Thanks for the chance! 🙂
French furniture is wrong in my house, but I would love to see what this paint does for a living room table in a 108 year old rural Missouri homestead farmhouse! The living room has been the biggest challenge finding a style that mimics period and purpose authenticity.
Love this! I can not wait to try this paint!
Shared on FB!
So funny! I remember after seeing MMS’s posts on Chalk Paint I sent you a message on twitter to ask if you had ever used it. I guess you have! ha! 😉

I have been dying to try this out! Love the color you picked, I just might want that one too!!

Ever since I saw this on Miss Mustard Seed’s blog, I have been itching to try it! Your coffee table looks gorgeous, but now it adds Old Ochre to the growing list of chalk paint colors I want!
This is beautiful!!! I would love to try this out!
I would love to use this chalk paint to paint my daughters crib white! 😀 It was my son’s first and was the fake cherry wood look but I want to do her room in white and pink so I think it would look gorgeous on a crib with a pink bumper and pink rug! I even have some gorgeous pink vases and a pink lantern to put in her room! 😀
I love Chalk paint!! I have wanted to experiment with it for awhile now. Thank for the giveaway, so fun!
What a fantastic idea for a project!
Beautiful! It’s great that you don’t have to sand and it turns out so perfectly!
I just recent’y finished my first piece and although it looks beautiful I think this chalk paint will make doing the next piece way easier!. Your coffee table is very beautiful!
I would love to try this paint. Im about to start redoing alot pieces of furniture in my house. Too many to list.
No sanding? Seriously?! I want, I want, I want….
Great giveaway. I would love to try her paints!
I love the way your coffee table turned out! Would love to win some chalk paint!
Oh, I hope I win! I need it! Thanks, Debbie
I love how this paint works. It will save so much time and effort. Tomarro is my birthday and I would love to win this. It would make a great birthday present.
Wow! I stopped by thinking there might be more to “Becoming”, but was thrilled to see this post! I live by the sea (have not lived here for terribly long) but as it looks like the Lord is keeping us here, I am trying to fully embrace the idea and have embarked on a beach cottage makeover of sorts – which includes the painting of several beautifully distresses, but very black and heavy-looking pieces of furniture….and THIS product seems to be exactly what I needed to find! Being the home schooling mother of two boys, finding away to speed up the WHOLE process of this transformation appeals to me in a way I can NOT describe! Hurray! Hurray for chalk paint! Hurray for wax! Hurray!
Wow – I just put three coats of primer on two end tables. I can’t wait to try this.
Oh, how I would love to win this! I have a desk that I’ve been looking to give a makeover, and I’ve been so back and forth about whether to try chalk paint on it or not. Winning would certainly make my decision for me!!!
I have a chest of drawers that I am going to give this a try on. I love the idea of no sanding.
I would love to try this stuff out.. count me in!
I left you a comment on FaceBook.
Oh, I realllllyyyyyyy want some of this paint!
I tweeted this too.
And am putting on Facebook!
I have been wanting to try this paint. Looks so awesome. I hope I win and thanks for the chance!!

I just posted about this on my Facebook page. Cool!
I retweeted about this great contest !
I just ordered 4 colors of chalk paint yesterday and called and added two cans of wax today….would love to win another color…it was so hard to choose from all the colors they offer. I want a can of each color:-) I can’t wait to use the paint!
I just blogged about this chalk paint contest on my blog. Thanks for the chance to enter again! Did I mention how much I would ____ LUV_____ to win some of this paint. I have been drooling over it for a month now.
I have several projects just waiting for something like this to fix them up! Thanks for the opprotunity!
Oh…I would love to win this! We have some crazy weird finish on our nightstands & they need to be painted, & this would be perfect!
I just love matte finishes on furniture– this may need to be introduced into my living room to brighten it up!
Also, I’m trying to start blogging and would love any feedback/advice! There is such a talented bunch of ladies on here and I have so very much to learn!

Tweeted it! @lerraboberra
Finally, I could take no more, I jus tbroke down and bought some Chaulk Paint. But, like shoes, you need a pair/quart in every color.
I can’t wait to try it and would love to win a free quart.
Sooooooo want to try this paint.
I would love to try this. I have an antique bar back, that was in my grandpa’s tavern. We recently literally dragged it out of my dads basement…I’m dying to refinish it and make it part of my decor! This paint may be exactly what I need!!
I’ve been itching to start painting projects that are currently in my head (and have been there for sometime!) This paint sounds like the perfect way to get started! I can’t wait to try it!
Posted on Facebook!
Love this paint and I love, love your home! You do an amazing job.
I would love to try this paint, and your table looks awesome!!!

Would love to try this paint! Have a few projects to tackle and this may be the ticket! 🙂
Great giveaway! I would love to try these out myself!
I would love to try to chalk paint on a garage full of furniture projects!
Yours is the second post I’ve seen in the past week extolling the virtues of this chalk paint. I would love to try some on one of the many unfinished furniture projects just sitting in my garage.
I would love to try this chalk paint! I wish they would sell the samples because 34$ is a lot for paint to try.
I’m a newbie at distressing furniture. I’ve got the beach cottage style bug and I’ve got loads of projects in mind. Could totally use some of that chalk paint 😀
PS Celebrating my 41st bday on the 14th wink wink 😀
Oooooh, I love your coffee table! It’s exquisite!
I have an old cherry buffet I found on Craigslist and I’ve been toying with the idea of painting it a Frenchy blue. From what I’ve been reading all over Blogland, chalk paint would be perfect for it. Even though I’ve never won anything in my life, there’s a first time for everything I suppose so please, please, please throw my name into the giveaway *hat*. 🙂
Thanks for using a different color than everyone else. I think I would like this color on a desk I’m going to paint this summer in my rental condo. If if turns out well, I might even paint the bureau in another bedroom. This type of paint seems to be easy to use, and would be good to dress up rooms that need a little extra something.
I am so excited about this giveaway. I am anxious to try this paint on a sideboard/ hutch I picked up! Love your work!!
exactly what I am looking for – I have been wondering how to achieve that look when fixing up a dresser I purchased some weeks ago. I am afraid this chalk paint colour type isn’t available in Sweden, though. Hope to win it ; )
I’ve been itching to try this paint ever since I saw it on Miss Mustard Seeds blog. It looks so neat to paint with. I have an old hutch I need to paint and have been waiting for that perfect paint and it looks like this is it!
This looks like a very interesting product. Thanks for the giveaway.
That table looks amazing & I would so love to give this stuff a try! 🙂 Thanks for hosting the giveaway!

Would love to try chalk paint – no prep work involved – and what a beautiful finish. Already saw the simple tutorial from Miss Mustard Seed. Thought I’d like to help my daughter painting a hutch in her dining room (and bonus low VOC – is so welcome with 2 darling babies at her house).

Your furniture/this paint has really inspired me. I have been going to salvation army stores to pick out old furniture to make my own personal project! Its so exciting!
I’ve been wanting to try this chalk paint and I have a headboard in the garage just waiting for a new finish. I would love to win!
I can’t wait to try chalk paint. I have so many projects to work on. I love how your coffee table turned out.
Holy Lord! I love love love your blog! You are so incredibly talented and have an eye for the beautiful. I am still finishing our bedroom (walls are pistacchio-green already) and a piece of furniture will get wheels and a white paint finish. This chalk paint would come oh so handy! Can’t get enough of your projects.
I would love to receive this Chalk Paint. I have been following the flurry of excitement in blogland, and can’t wait to try it out myself!

I would simply LOVE to try this stuff!
I would love to try this. I have an antique coffee table that I stained the top and have yet to finish the bottom, I was thinking a white or green color, definitely distressed. Oooh I hope I win…I am terrible about ordering things so I may never get around to it unless I find it in a store. I was ready to just use a leftover paint that I have in the garage today but now I will wait at least until tomorrow…
Now that’s an incentive to paint – no priming or sanding? I’m sold! I would absolutely love the opportunity to try this on my first furniture piece.
I would love to try this paint!!!
Okay, between your encouragement on your blog and the information on Miss Mustard Seed’s blog. I have scurried around my house and have 8 or 9 maybe pieces of furniture to paint with the new chalk paint. Now all I need is the paint!!
I can’t wait and all my family and friends think I have lost it I am painting everything in sight. I am having so much fun.
My friends on Facebook now know also 😉

Oh My Goodness!!! I think I just fell in love!!!! Paint =AWESOME!! :0)
I keep hearing about this Anne Sloan chalk paint and really need to get ahold of this paint. The final finishes look fabulous!
I am dying to try it!
I love how your table turned out! Old Ochre is one of my favorites now (along with olive). I didn’t do quite as big a project as you, just chalk painted my pumpkins, but I love how they turned out.
I am so impressed and I want to grap a piece of furniture and start to paint.
Thank you for inspiring me
I have recently discovered Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and have become addicted to it. Like you, I look for pieces of furniture in my home to paint. In the near future, I will be also be selling some items at Paddywacs in Anoka MN. Old Ochre and Old White are probably my two favorite Annie colors.
I enjoy reading your blog and am currently taking a course to create one. Such fun. Thanks for your inspiration!! 🙂
