I like how you distress them otherwise the white would be blah, but you give each piece character.

I can't believe those finials you came up with using the various pieces. You have such an eye. I too noticed how sweet those candlesticks are with the color peeking through. Paint on metal is such a cool old look. You are definitely getting the most bang for your buck using homemade chalk paint!<br />Liz @ Quirky Vistashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12619479131117781394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3133880622852492921.post-27214057717273890692013-02-20T19:47:20.315-06:002013-02-20T19:47:20.315-06:00It really is hard to believe that white paint coul...It really is hard to believe that white paint could make such a dramatic change, but it sure does!Tina@WhatWeKeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03784869477053139668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3133880622852492921.post-91983857214817297572013-02-20T17:22:53.073-06:002013-02-20T17:22:53.073-06:00It all looks gorgeous Revi, and I want to see some...It all looks gorgeous Revi, and I want to see some photos of it all put together.
