A tale of 2 night stands

One of the things I love about ASCP (there are loads of things I love) is the ability to transform a piece of furniture and give it a unique look. I recently painted 2 different end tables to add to my booth at Drab 2 Fab Paint & Decor.

The first end table is painted in Annie Sloan Old White and the second in Annie Sloan Cocoa. The table in Old White I lightly distressed then gave it a coat of clear wax and she was done. I love this simple white table with the curved legs.

The table painted in Cocoa started out black.

I wanted to use what was already there so I left some of the black showing to give this piece more of a distress look and giving it a bit more character. Easy to do with the plank look on top and the carved legs. I used the wet distress method to show just the black and not what was under the black paint. And then I clear waxed over everything. Once that was done I added a thick layer of dark wax and then worked that in.

There really are so many possibilities with chalk paint and wax. Don’t be afraid to try different methods to get the look you want.

I have both of these in my booth at Drab 2 Fab Paint & Décor in Lehi if you are interested.

Tell me what you think of my 2 tables. I would love to hear your thoughts. And if you have any questions please leave them in the comments section.

Thanks again for stopping by to take a look!
