Give a vintage farmhouse look to your living space when you re-do an old cupboard with Chalky Finish paint.

SUPPLIES

• water container
• sandpaper
• 2" flat brush
• soft cloth or old T-shirt
• wooden hutch and dresser base

INSTRUCTIONS

NOTES:

Let dry completely between painting steps.

1. Use the cloth to wipe down the furniture pieces to remove dust, etc.

2. Use a 2" flat brush and Everlasting to apply one or two coats to both furniture pieces, painting over the hardware as well as the wood.

3. Once dry, distress the paint with sandpaper to allow some of the original wood finish to show through in areas where wear would naturally occur. For example: around handles and on edges.

4. Wipe down the furniture pieces with a soft cloth or use vacuum cleaner to remove all dust.
5. Using a waxing brush, apply an even coat of Clear Crème Wax over the entire piece, including the hardware. When dry to the touch, buff the wax to a smooth finish.
