| Desk or vanity with homemade chalk paint |
This cute little desk was a piece that I had hanging around for a while before I knew what I wanted to do with it
It belonged to a sweet man who said it belonged to his Great Aunt
I fight with myself sometimes about painting furniture, is it the right thing to do?
It's worse if the piece is perfect looking, like this one

I wonder, is there going to be a whole new generation of furniture bloggers a few years from now stripping all this chalk paint and distressed paint work off these pieces and calling us names while they do it? I think so, for sure
Even so, I decided to make my own chalk paint for this one and to distress and antique only the drawers and the top
Here is a rare photo of me painting

It turned out looking great, all beachy and bright
