Yesterday, I shared about painting this little school chair. I had it all white then thought that it 'needed' something. So I painted the seat and seatback in ASCP Florence. Its a beautiful color, but I thought the contrast between Old White and the Florence was pretty stark. You can read all about it here.
My sweet friend, and experienced ASCP painter confirmed how to go about lightening the seat and seat back and that is what I did.
I have two chairs still and I may try the Old White again, but do a color wash on the seat and seat back of lightened French Linen.
I'm having a good time with these projects. I don't know if I'm good at it but, it's fun.

I'm having fun "watching" YOU have fun!
I'm also learning! I didn't realize chalk paint would cover metal so well!
Having fun is a good thing! Will be interesting to see what the wax does.
Fun projects to practice/learn on!! I have a project on the horizon...and it's not the highboy! :)
Love this shade of blue and also that you had fun!
