I used the Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Paris Grey and the Annie Sloan Soft Wax in Clear. The Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is available internationally but isn’t sold at any large retailers (that I know of). I was able to find her paints at a local shop by checking on her website: http://www.anniesloan.com/acatalog/North_American_Stockists.html
Here are the knobs I used! http://www.homedepot.com/p/Liberty-1-3-16-in-Chrome-Faceted-Crystal-Knob-P30779C-CHC-CP/204992512
This was such an easy project and it feels like a brand new piece of furniture. Definitely recommend if you’re looking to change something up! If you do this, please tweet me a photo! 😀 http://www.twitter.com/amarixe

This looks so cool!! Great idea Allison!
I know what I’m doing with my old bookshelf now! Very helpful video. I enjoyed the tips that you included, they’re especially helpful for not-so-handy people such as myself x)
This looks amazing! Will definitely be trying it with some picture frames I want to revamp 🙂
Annie sloan Chalk paint is the best! I’ve redone a large dresser, chair, and bar. In love we the duck egg blue 🙂
Love the apt series. I am sure your apt will be beautiful. Love you and Ella.
Oh gosh I would have left the top stained wood!
Love that you don’t have to do anything before!
where did you get the paint from
I want a place like this. please let me know where I can find one. 🙂
As someone who loves stained wood, that was a little heartbreaking. BUT, that being said, the finished product looks great. I love the new knobs. I’m glad that you are taking us with you on this moving/decorating journey. 🙂
love these kinds of videos =))
are you advertising for annie sloan products?…
I have that same TV stand. It nice to know what it looks like in a lighter color
Best video ever. Love you, so easy. Thank you
Now it looks like ikea furniture.
fantastic result!!!!
does the chalk paint have a satin finish? or is it more matte?
Hey Allison. Did you by any chance pick up this piece of furniture at target? I did and I believe that it’s actually from the Andersson category. What a coincidence on so many things.
Love Love Love! I might do this to my bedroom furniture. 🙂
great! I love it!
I must say though that so many antiques have been “murdered” by Annie Sloan lol. Personally not a fan of chalkboard paint on furnitures but that tv stand looks great!
Does this work with laminated wood? Pls reply pls pls thanks mwah
This actually was very helpful! I have a full length mirror/jewelry box that I have been wanting to paint white. Thank you!
By far the best tutorial on using chalk paint!! I have been watching and reading several tutorials on chalk paint but none of them made me feel comfortable about painting a piece of furniture. Thank you for this video. Now I can feel at ease about painting a hutch that I purchased =) Wish me luck! Oh what kind of cloth did you use to wipe the wax?
Hi Allison, Is your TV stand from IKEA?
Awesome video! I will keep this in mind when I redecorate. 🙂
It turned out so cute and pretty!! I love it! <3
awesome
when i got my new apartment, I got a old kitchen table that needed some tlc (needed some repairs and the top was too chipped to keep it the original color), and repainted the top white with a tent of blue, but kept the legs the color they were (seeing they are this also pink and already distressed). I also got a new dressed and striped the awful paint on it (ps more than 4 layers of paint that was so gross looking and hard to get off), and painted it sky blue to match my headboard.
Haha it’s nice, but I’d never do this to my furniture because I love the look of wooden furniture 🙂
This inspired me to do some of my furniture! Love it
loved this!! Please make more home decor projects or decor hauls, its my favorite!!! 🙂
Looks great – can’t believe how easy it is with that paint!
I love the DIY projects!
Lovely 🙂
My mom is an artist and she’s gotten into chalk painting furniture and LOVES the Annie Sloan chalk paint 🙂 she really enjoys your videos too 🙂
You need a lot of patience to do this! that I don’t have!
What a great project!!
Is there any wax that cures all the way in way less than 30 days?
I absolutely love this… how much was all the paint and the brushes?
