Have I ever said how I love my job?
I love my job(s).
Working with The Fab Furniture Flippin’ Contest™, I had the opportunity to work with lots of amazing brands and explore their products! I had the pleasure of working with Country Chic Paint. You can see my inspiration piece as well as all the contestants work HERE. Working with their Metallic Cream was SO much fun!
Now, recently I picked up a can of white wax that had been sitting in my cabinet for quite some time and realized I LOVE WHITE WAX! What I didn’t love though is how it made me feel!! My sinuses were wrecked and before I knew it a migraine set in. As I felt it coming on I grabbed the can and noticed it had solvents in it. (Womp Womp Womp) So I began the hunt for an all natural white wax. It couldn’t be that hard right? I was really surprised! Then I remembered someone telling me how they loved Country Chic’s White Wax back during the contest. I checked out their website and sure enough,.. there it was. So, I reached out to them. Is it All natural?? I wanted to test it out. You can see the comparison HERE! Also, they have incredible tutorials! Just look! I LOVE getting their email updates which include all sorts of great information! Want to know an AWESOME trick to painting spindles-yeah go check them out. 🙂
Soon it was time to put it to work!! I had this sweet little table I found that has great details! I painted it in a historical color known as Charleston Green that I made custom which you can see HERE! There is something I love about looking at old buildings,.. the old weathered paint,.. the shutters chalking up and the white chalky substance maybe running down the house,.. If I had a great picture I would share it now! But,. I dont so, carrying on.. here is the table status quo.
Cute right?? But,.. it felt too polished,.. I loved the chippy style, but I wanted a more deeply aged look. Que my beloved white wax.
Like I said- so easy to use! You can see me using it HERE.
After applying all over and wiping away the excess, I love going back with an artists brush to fill in details,..
Before
After
I love the way the wax goes in a subtly accentuates all those carved features! Ok so Im sure you want to see the full after?
See the Difference?? It gives the perfect aged look I was hoping for!
**Dreamy**

Alright! Go enter and be sure to share with your friends so they can to!
Until then, Happy Painting Y’all!!

There was a problem with the link to see you using the wax. I tried both of them. Is it not available any more?
