Adding a pop of color

                Happy Valentine's Day friends!
 I can finally say I'm done!! 
With the furniture makeovers in Mackenzie's room that is, we still have to paint the walls, I'm hoping we can get started this weekend. Her ceiling needs to be painted also so I'll be needing the hubs help with that... because I don't do ceilings!
My MIL bought this chest for me when we first got married. It was whitewashed with stenciled flowers on it. A few years ago I repainted it white added some glaze and a new stencil to it.
Here's how it used to look...
And here's how it looks now... I figured with her walls being white her room was going to need a fun pop of color, so I used AS chalk paint in Antibes along with both the clear and dark wax.
Can you believe I gave this piece 2 coats and I only used a sample pot...this paint goes a long way!
I added a new stencil to the top, and sanded it down to make it look worn before I waxed it.


Mackenzie takes after her mama and loves green, she picked this color out and loves how it turned out!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
