Hi Gail....love your blog! You are just w-a-y too crafty!!

One question....I have seen several blogs talking about the homemade milk paint. One said just add the plaster of paris to your latex paint. Have you ever just used flat wall paint in the mix or does it have to be the latex???

Thanks!

Hey Gail
I love the table and chairs. I’ve heard so much talk about this chalk paint,, How is it different from regular paint? Is it better to use?

What a sweet set for any child to enjoy!! Love how the wax tones it down…just the perfect finish!! I’ve got to try this homemade chalk paint!!

If this set goes to your shop…it will sell fast.

Hey sweet girl! :)Thanks for your comment on where I put my painting…it really does make me smile every time I look at it. Blogger friends are the best! (yes, that includes YOU!) :-)I did NOT know you could make your own chalk paint! How cool!! I hate to prime with a purple passion, but didn’t want to shell out the big bucks for the chalk paint, so this is wonderful news to me! lol I wonder if you can use a less expensive wax as well?? hmmm…maybe I should just bite the bullet and buy the wax. :)Hope you’re enjoying this wonderful weather around here this week! I’m doing TONS of yard work and hardly breaking a sweat…I could use another week of this weather! :)HUGS!

Your color should be called ‘Country Red’- it has a barnred cast to it and that’s great because it’s a wonderful color! Well matched for the pint sized table and chairs. And what’s better than that? A chalkboard right where you need it! You have great taste, Gail!
