I used Dulux paint colour A268 and I’m so pleased with how it turned out! Just two coats of paint and a little wax and it is completley transformed already! I need to do some more sanding and waxing I think, I’m not 100% happy with the finish as it is at the moment but I’m pretty close.
I love giving a tatty piece of furniture at a bargain price a new lease of life, and it’s such a sweet size too; this chalk paint is going to be used a lot more in this house from now on!
lovely color!
This is beautiful!
