I am in love with this color combination! I mixed 2 parts Bayberry Chalk Paint with 1 part Patina Green. It created this true green to paint this pressed back chair. It is a little darker than the photo shows; simply beautiful! This is a color I will use on lots of furniture in the future.

Bayberry Beauty

This piece was originally the top part of a chest-on-chest chest-of-drawers. When unloading the piece, it fell off the dollie and the bottom part smashed to smithereens. I was able to salvage the bottom legs/platform and attach it to the top part of the chest, creating this very versatile piece. It can be a dresser, server, buffet, entertainment cabinet, foyer statement piece, basically anything you want it to be. It was painted with Bayberry Chalk-Style Paint, lightly distressed, glazed with Van Dyke Brown, and top coated with High Performance Topcoat in Satin.

When creating a coastal look, there's no better color than Coastal Blue! The deep navy milk paint created the perfect foundation for the nautical theme on this Watchmaker's Desk. The drop-down desk folds up to create a second top, which makes it very versatile. The stenciling was done with Art Minds chalk paint in Porcelain. The stencils are from Cutting Edge Stencils. General Finishes High Performance Topcoat in Satin completed the piece.
