Vintage Jacobean Buffet Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Old White A sweet dear friend inherited a mahogany sideboard, china cabinet, and table several years ago which really weren’t her style. after i moved out of state, she asked me if i would like the furniture, saying that the pieces would look great in my “new” house. after a 4 hour trip her heirlooms easily made themselves at home in my house. Step 3: painting. how to use chalk paint and stain. i chose walnut wood stain for the top and white paint for the body (used rustoleum chalked paint). i started with the top. i masked the body of the buffet with my painter’s tape and i made sure i sanded it very well and cleaned it too.
Stunning Vintage Sideboard Buffet Painted In Annie Sloan Chal 3. prodigal pieces. 4. petticoat junktion. 5. the interior frugalista. thanks for hanging out here today and checking out my latest project – i’d love it if you’d share this post or leave a comment below! jen. antique sideboard makeover how to paint a beautiful white distressed finish with chalk paint. Armed with a 1 1 2″ angled brush, the same one i use when cutting in wall paint and painting windows and trim (no need to go out and buy one of those overly expensive chalk painting brushes), i contorted myself into strange positions to paint every nook and cranny of the buffet. one good, thick coat of chalk paint on the buffet is all it took. Step 1: clean the buffet table. after years of use and further years of neglect, old furniture collects all sorts of grease, grime, dirt and dust. it’s important to get rid of as much of that old gunk as possible. some folks out there claim that with chalk paint, there’s no need to clean or do any sort of prep. Before painting, wipe piece of furniture with clean cloth. no need to sand. paint coat, let dry. assess for second coat (i think it’s good measure). it dried pretty quickly. you can choose to lightly sand in between coats if you see brush strokes, but if not, proceed with coat two. let sit overnight and then wax.
