Nightstand Chalk Paint Tutorial

January 18, 2016 The Grace House

I've been sitting on the fence for a while about starting a blog.  I don't know about you, but for me it's downright overwhelming and a little confusing.  I actually got my page set up...kind of, then I would work on it for a while, get frustrated, and leave it for weeks before I came back to it.  Well, last week I posted two little photos to my Instagram page.  These particular posts were photos of a nightstand that I had refinished with chalk paint.  This also happened to be my first attempt at creating a faux reclaimed wood top, and surprisingly, it came out really well!  Sooo, all that to say I got a TON of comments requesting a tutorial, and it just so happened that I had a second nightstand to refinish. That, my friends, was the little push I needed to get this thing going.  So, I guess I should say thank you, and as promised, here is that chalk paint tutorial.  Enjoy...
