My Shabby Chic Table COMPLETED kinda...

Hi Guys,

I know i don't really have any followers but if anyone does come across my blog you will know I have been doing my own ShabbyChic dining room table.
I have been using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint.

The Paint: Annie Sloan Chalk paint in Pure White and Olive
The paint itself i found quite thick, so i watered it down for the first coat then used it as it is for the final coat. I went through 1 and a half tins for 6 chairs and a table (i painted the table top white then changed my mind)
I loved the Olive. It's very earthy :)
Next time i wouldn't use pure white, its just a bit TOO white.
I ordered from DovetailsVintage and they were really good, delivery was fast and they send you a colour chart of all the colours in the Annie Sloan Range. Onto the pictures:

Voila!

As you can tell some of these pics are instagrammed! But hey! Don't you think it looks cool?

I put Annie Sloan dark wax on to age it then clear wax all over. I also used an indoor Matte Varnish to finish it off as i felt the clear wax always felt damp (and i had left it on for about 3 weeks)

DIY Shabby Chic Dining Table: Part 1

Hello!

I have really really got into the whole shabby chic decor style. The thing about shabby chic as it's an excuse to go White!
I've always been a fan of simple black and white, plain design. Then adding your own personal touch...especially plants!! A house isn't a home without plants.

Today we bought a six seater table. £100 + £20 Delivery.

So this is my Shabby Chic Project!

I've seen the same table on ebay, but it's painted a green colour, mine will be white.

Here are some more examples, but i think i'd want them fully white rather than dark wood top...

So, i have my table, i have my Annie Sloan paint...just need to start!

It's arrived!
