Thanks Barbara,

I love cutting up furniture, and blue is my favorite color. 🙂

Thank you so very much Donna Marie!

Copper,

Thanks for your interest in this project. Whenever I use my DIY chalk paint, I always end with the topcoat (semi-gloss) so that the piece is properly sealed, no waxing needed. 🙂

It’s the best thing about making your own chalk paint.
When I asked Home Depot about oops paint, I was told that it’s up to the clerk that RE-mixes the paint that the customer declined or returned. That they generally just add a dark color to change the hue so that the original customer can’t come back and get it at a discounted price. I generally just grab it and run. I recently got a gallon of the newer scuff paint (?) FREE Yep! can you imagine that!? I really grabbed that one and ran.

That turned out very nice…I absolutely love the color…whenever you buy some oops paint you can asked them to shake it for you and also look at it b4 you buy,…and sometimes you can get the color combo and well so if you need again they can make it for you or at least color match…what coat did you out on top of the table?

Connie,

Surprise! I read all my comments, no matter how old the post is. 🙂

To clarify, I used the oops paint mixed with Plaster of Paris as a primer.
THEN, I used the paint “out of the can” for the topcoats. It’s been my favorite paint technique for years now. It’s an easy way to primer with the same color you’re using to finish the project.

I sure hope that clears it up.

Always here to help,
