Furniture Makeovers with Chalk Paint™ at Qualicum Bay
Looking for the Coastal Feel?
Watch the video below (replay) to see the beautiful finished pieces all set up in their new home in Qualicum Bay on Vancouver Island. Carrie took a working holiday opportunity to stay in this gorgeous vacation property right on the ocean! If you want to create a coastal feel take a look at this. You can see how we used a few different techniques to create a beautiful coastal feel.
Check out the VIEW! Summit loved it too!
We can’t think of a more relaxing place to pick up a brush and start creating. Here are some of the pieces Carrie gave a makeover too using Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan. What do you think? If you are looking to redo your own pieces at home keep reading for our step-by-step guide below.
Perfect round side tables were refinished in a classic Pure White Chalk Paint™
Colour mixing is used on this hutch/TV stand using 4 parts Pure White - 1 Part Aubusson Blue


Heavy distressing is our one of our favourite techniques!


Sometimes you just have a change of heart and want a new colour! This little night stand got a fresh update with Chalk Paint™ in Pure White.
This statement armoire is stunning but Carrie created more of a coastal vibe using Pure White. Light distressing make the details pop!
Using Chalk Paint™ is really just that easy. 3 Steps
1. Clean your project using a mild soap and warm water to remove the grease and dirt built up.
2. Pick your colour ( this is the tough part) we have 41 delicious shades found HERE.
3. Pick your finishing sealant. We usually recommend Clear WAX for most projects. All Waxes and Glazes can be found HERE.
