Aqua and White!!!!!!!!

 Remember this little cabinet I blogged about a few weeks ago?

I bought it at my friend, Sheila's, yard sale. (No relation.)

And redid it to look like this 

and sold it in my booth at Greenwood Antiques.

I think Sheila was impressed,

because she had this little shelf.

And she asked me to do a similar treatment.

It had some issues....

the top paint was peeling off.

Latex over oil........

so I removed that..

 And I cleaned the piece...

Next I made up a mixture of two chalk paints -

Annie Sloan Old White and

Maison Blanche Peacock.

 I painted the inside this lovely aqua.

 Outside, I painted in Old White.

 And here it is after I waxed, 

and applied dark waxes in the crevices to age the piece.

Outside, the wax accentuates all the

scratches and crackles and adds to the texture.

I love this color combo.

These little shelves are so functional...

Here it is back in Sheila's home,

where she is using it for fabric storage.

Perfect.

Have a piece that needs the SheShe touch?
