The blogosphere is abuzz about chalk paint---no-- not chalkboard paint--chalk paint! My coveted quart of "Old White" is currently in my work area ....and my next 2 quarts - Louis Blue and Paris Grey are on their way...
I have one coat on my project & am loving the color.... have not even added a coat of wax yet which is supposed to really deepen and enhance the look.....I will be posting pics and a full review within the next few days... Chalk Paint's claim to fame is that you do not need to prime-along with the great finished look it gives you as well as the ease of application...sounds pretty good huh?
I have collected a few posts on the subject to help educate you on this new fun paint....Enjoy--and I think chalk paint is going to be a GREAT find!!

Ooh, you're going to love Paris Grey, that's the color I am using now to do a dresser with. :) After using it I want to paint everything in that color. :) Thanks so much for stopping by my blog! Can't wait to see your projects.
