annie sloan chalk paint

So, back in March we tried to sell these bad boys. They were Brent's in the bachelor pad. When we got married, he wanted to bring them over to the house. I told him I wasn't super fond of them, so he let Tony continue to use them for about a year. Then Tony got married and Maureen didn't care for them either, haha. So, they've been in our garage for over a year now just taking up space and collecting lots of dust. I practically tried to give them away for free in a garage sale over spring break and had no takers. Right when B said he'd take them to Goodwill, I promised him that I'd make them real cute one day and then try to sell them for more. Well that day finally arrived. I finally got to experience the amazing Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. It is awesome. No stripping, sanding, or anything. I just painted those bad boys, waxed them, made a couple scruff marks on them for character, waxed them again and BAM, DONE! Well, it did take me about 6 hours to do both, but still not bad. I thought I'd drag them in the house and decorate them in hopes to get someone to reallllllly want them. Guess what?! That someone is ME!!!! Ah, now what am I going to do?!?! For now, I'll just sit and smile at them. They make me so happy ;)
