The little blue desk
Dave and I recently had a weekend away to visit Prince Edward County. On our way back we stopped in a small town called Bath to visit a store called The Melon Patch. They sell antiques, and offer interior/exterior design services. They also sell Annie Sloan chalk paints. I had read really great things about these water based paints, such as they adhere to anything and are non-toxic. No need for sanding and priming. They also create that distressed look very nicely. So for this desk/dressing table that Dave salvaged, I decided to give this chalk paint a go. 'Greek Blue' felt like the right fit. There were some issues with the drawers, so Dave fixed them up. Here are the before and after photos:
