The new obsession: CHALK PAINT!
I will have to agree, it is beautiful.
My mom asked me yesterday where she could find some Annie Sloan chalk paint so that got my wheels turning on what I could chalk paint too!
What is chalk paint?
Well, it looks like a very matte paint, just like a chalkboard but it comes in all kinds of amazing colors.
Here is an official definition from momtastic.com:
Chalk "style" Paint is not chalkboard paint, but paint that makes transforming furniture easy as it needs no surface prep and dries to a chalk-like finish.
Of course, I ran to Pinterest for some inspiration that never lets me down.
What do you all think about all this chalk paint?

I should've named this blog, "The Turquoise Peacock" with the way I obsess over turquoise. Isn't this the beachiest, cutest side table?

I love it. Definitely going to have to try it on some pieces around the house. There are a couple booths at the Antique Mall that I think use a lot of this too. Have you decided what to try it on?
