Lamps to love...



I'm loving the new lamps I have in my River Market Antique Mall booth.  (Third floor, #518). 

I gave my tired space a new look. 

Now, it's time to go paint furniture for Restoration Emporium.  It's the 1st Friday weekend in the West Bottoms. 

I will be painting a child's dresser and 2 side tables with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Florence.  Pics to follow!

Remember to "like" my facebook page - Annie Mason.

Making My Own Chalk Paint

I have been reading all over about people using the oh-so-expensive chalk paint.  It's hard to find! 

But from what I read, so EASY to make.  And cheaper!  No sanding or priming!

I have no pics because I haven't decided which piece to try it on. 

You just use the paint of your choice, mixing it with Plaster of Paris.  I've seen this on numerous blogs. ( I will post the links later on - I want to get permission.)

Let me know if your try it.
So...I think I'll try it on a frame first!
