Annie Sloan Redo
Yes, these are the tables I painted yesterday and posted...well this morning I went into the studio and decided I didn't really like the graphite tops so I just switched out the colors. The tops are the colors that the stencil was and the stencil is now graphite (Annie Sloan Chalk Paint) I painted right over the wax and about 30 minutes later the new tops were done! Better?
Here is another find I had gotten earlier this month...this was shown in one of my first posts along with a lot of other "junque" found in a backyard here locally. Since we do weddings on our property, I thought this might be a good addition to our "stash". I'm going to take it with me to the 3 Speckled Hens Show this weekend and use it as a checkout table. The stencil? Annie Sloan Rustic wax....just paint and wax - Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and Caromal Colours self stick stencil.
Have to get some orders made up tonight and then zzzzzzzzzzzz

Hello Vicki! I'm from Selma and I'm loving the look of the Annie Sloan paint. Do you have a shop or do you just go to shows? Just had to follow and I'm looking forward to seeing more of what you do with paint and unappreciated treasures.
Hi Sweet Bee Cottage - I have a studio in Clovis where I have the paint and teach workshops. Go to www.3oaksstudio.com for info and directions! Hope to see you soon!
Vicki- thanks for stopping by. :) Glad you liked the buffet makeover. I am excited to finish up the other dresser I am working on this weekend. Having my two littles sometimes leaves me with little time to paint. Your new tables look great. :)
