I truly enjoy your newsletter and the projects you complete. I am a serial diy also, I continue
To amaze my husband. I just completed my first chalk paint project. I love it, not have to sand and prime is the best! I just ran into a problem with sealing it, I used A polycrylic and it yellowed! I ended up using a toxic spray sealer I had. I haven’t used a wax yet but have read it yellows also. What is your favorite sealer to use on white chaulk paint?
Thank you, Allyson! Those boys don’t know what we can do, do they?! I use Annie Sloan’s clear soft wax to seal. It is pricey at around $25, but one can will last a long time. I’ve never had issues with yellowing. Good luck! ????
Love your style! Thanks for all your creative ideas!
Thank you, Deb! It is totally my pleasure! XO
Happy Blog-Aversary to youuuu.

Just like to say thank you for all the detailed instructions you share with us. I have been inspired to buy a few power tools because of you. I am one day going to make that Mason Jar Blue Headboard Bench. I absolutely love ❤️ it. I bought the kreg jig and big clamp. Trying to build up my confidence to just do it! Congrats on your new place, looking forward to see it to completion. Thanks again for all your hard work.????
It is my pleasure, Mary! I am thrilled to hear that you have been inspired by what I share…that makes what I do SO worth the effort!! The Kreg jig looks way more complicated than it really is. Open it up, read the instructions, and then give it a try on a scrap piece of wood. You’ll see it isn’t so bad! Thank you so much, Mary…good luck to you on the giveaway!
I would love to win this! Me, my daughter and granddaughter would have so much fun as we all enjoy being a do it yourselfer!! Thank you!
So nice that you have each other to bounce ideas off of! Best of luck to you, Lori! XO

Painting is one of my favorite things in the whole world so this has to be one of the best gifts ever. I have subscribed to your blog for several months now. I didn’t even know about blogs until earlier this year – I had heard about them but always just they were about child raising and cooking – I stumbled onto one and now I am a huge fan. Thank you to all of the women who blog about DIY, Painting, crafting, furniture re-purposing, flea marketing, etc. I have learned so much from all of you. I have really bad neuropathy in my hands and feet (I am 68) and have had a couple of really bad falls so can’t garden any more unless my son is home with me – but I can still paint!! So glad to have such smart and talented friends to teach me.
Thank you, Carol…I’m so glad you found me and others that inspire you! Painting is my happy place as well…kindred spirits! Good luck on the giveaway! XOXO
It is always fun (and instructive) to see what you are painting. Nice giveaway!
Thank you, Ellen!! Good luck! XOXO
A great prize to win. You have inspired me to paint my hutch that looks just like the ones you have painted. Can;t wait to mix up the grey morning and white paint. I love the color it makes.
Oh yay! I love that you are feeling inspired! Yes, Grey Morning and white are a lovely combination! You could really put this prize to good use…good luck! XOXO
I don’t think it’s fair that your giveaways are for US residents only. I’m sure you have
a lot of people subscribing to your program here that are not US residents and I find
that it’s just not fair.
I’m so sorry, Ruth. I am supplying this giveaway out of my own pocket, and that includes shipping which could be very costly for me outside of the U.S. I still appreciate you though!! XO
I am so pleased you started your blog! You have inspired me to finally ‘up-do’ some pieces that had waiting for a fresh start!
Oh that is awesome to hear, Carol! Thank you! XO
Thank you for the great give away. I’m crossing my fingers!
My pleasure, Pam! Good luck! XO
Congratulations Christy! 5 years of marvelousness! You never cease to amaze me with your creations and I’m so glad that you share the to inspire us. I have saved your chalk paint recipe for when I have the space to paint large items. If I win your kit, I will scoot back some furniture in the living room and set up shop, no more waiting! I love getting your posts and look forward to emails on Tuesdays and Thursdays (and from some of your other friends too, that I met through you!) Thank you so much for all the joy and goodness!
Thank you SO much for such a sweet comment, Paula! So glad I could offer a little DIY inspiration! I’d love for you to win this so you can get started, but if not…go for it anyway, you’ll be hooked! Best of luck to you! XOXO
I love your blog! You have great style and great ideas! And you are practical too!! Thank you.
Thank you so much, Paula! So happy to hear you enjoy what I share! Good luck on the giveaway! XO
I don’t use instagram so I can’t enter that way???? But I do really enjoy your blog!
Leaving a comment gains entries too, so you’re in, Carol! Thank you, and good luck! XOXO
Tried to submit my comments but the dropdown said there was an error and the page couldn’t be found. Maybe that’s why I don’t win at these events.
No worries, Cate! I’ll make sure you’re entered! XO
New to your blog and lovin’ it!! Thanks for the inspiration and opportunity to win some awesomeness!

Hope you get the chance, Kelly…it is addicting! Good luck! XO
Thanks for your great give away.
My pleasure, Gilda! Good luck! XO
Can semi gloss paint be used to make chalk paint?
I don’t recommend it, Pam. When you sand your finish, it may appear splotchy since it will end up a bit glossy in some areas and not in others. Flat is my paint of choice.
I love your philosophy of making old things new and useful and beautiful. I do so want to begin painting some furniture myself so I could really use the giveaway! Thanks for offering it.
Thank you, Naomi! I’d love to give you the opportunity to get started! Wishing you lots of luck! XOXO
Both giveaways are great. Annie Sloan and plaid – can’t go wrong with either!
Ha ha yep! Thanks, Donna…good luck! XOXO

I hope you do go for it, Maureen! You will be hooked! Thank you, and lots of luck to you on the giveaway! XOXO
I’m so excited for this giveaway! I mentioned previously that you were the inspiration for all the DIY projects I took on to prepare my new place, and I am so proud of how all my hard work turned out! I find painting furniture therapeutic (as long as I don’t over commit!), and have already started collecting some side of the road items to make over in the future!
I am SO thrilled to hear that I have inspired you in some way to create!! That is the best compliment ever, Chanelle, thank you! Isn’t it the best feeling to stand back and see what you’ve accomplished? Good for you for going for it!! I’d love to see you win this because I know it would be put to good use! XOXO
You are the very reason I am painting and selling furniture today! I still love reading your blog and looking at your beautiful, creative work! Thanks for this giveway – I’d LOVE to win!
You are awesome, Tracey!! Thank you so much!! Crossing my fingers for you! XOXO
I love your blog. You inspire me with all your painting projects.
Thank you so much, Penny! XO
Any ideas on how to get dried paint out of a paintbrush? Do I just use paint thinner or something? I’m basically a painting newbie.
I have tried the vinegar method, paint thinner, soaking them in citristrip, and I have never been able to make them look new again once the paint has dried completely. You can keep your paintbrush fresh by wrapping it in saran wrap, but clean it with warm water as soon as you are done with your project. Your brushes will last for years if you treat them right! Good luck, and if you find something that works, let me know!
Congrats on 5 years! What a great givaway!!
Thank you, K! Good luck! XO
I love reading your blog, cant wait to see what you’re up to next.
Thank you so much, Dana!! XO
I really enjoy your blog. Congratulations on your five years and I look forward to many more years to come!
Thank you, Kathy!! I’ll cheers to that! XOXO
I’ve said this before, but I don’t mind saying it again. This is a great site for creativity using chalk paint. I really enjoy using it. Sometimes I just can’t figure out what the possibilities are for some items I may have. So whenever I get the email with your latest projects, it helps me to see what’s possible. Thanks for sharing your projects. They’re beautiful. It’s a lot of fun to see what you’ve done, but it’s also very practical and really a big help.
Aww thank you so much for such a lovely comment, Toni! Good luck to you on the giveaway! XOXO

Aww thank YOU, Agata! XOXO
Love all you do. I’m trying to master taking pictures of mirrors! Usually end up with more in the reflection than the mirror and frame itself!
Thank you, Shelly! Mirrors are tricky for sure. You have to take photos of them at an angle and set them up so that they reflect something pretty at the same time…not easy! XO
You are a muse! Thanks for all your innovative, inspiring ideas 🙂
Aww thank you so much, Heather! XOXO
You have great ideas and an easy to read blog. Thank you.

Girl, you will be hooked if you do! Good luck!! XO
I found your blog a couple months ago. You are my DIY hero with such awesome tools (a few have landed on my Christmas list)! I chalk painted (with your recipe) an old oak bookcase and murphy bed. Maybe a bit large for first-time projects, but they turned out great. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and photos and projects. I love seeing what you do. I also LOVED your Halloween decorations. Definitely going to copy some ideas in our own cemetery next year!

We have to repaint our kitchen cabinets but we’re going to practice on our master bathroom cabinets first.
Good luck with your project, Jodie! Starting with the bathroom sounds like a great plan!
I love your style!!! I always head to your blog first for inspiration,courage and “how to’s”. I’m finally going to attempt recovering and painting some chairs that were my mother-in-laws!

Congratulations and thanks for offering a great giveaway!
Blessings, Candy
Thanks, Candy! My pleasure! XOXO
Your projects have inspired me to restore old furniture and chalk those other pieces. I love ‘thrifting’ and the hunt is almost as much fun as the remaking of the piece. Thank you for the helpful instructions and beautiful pieces!
I love hearing that, Carla, thank you! And yes I agree…the hunt is almost as much fun! XOXO
I follow a lot of DIY home and furniture decorating websites, but yours has always been my favorite. You make projects seem do-able, which isn’t always the case when I look at other websites. Thank you!
Aww thank you SO much, Kathy! I love that you feel like you could tackle some of the projects I share…makes taking all those step by step pics worth it! XOXO
I love your posts! Keep the projects coming.
Thank you, Laurie! XOXO

I have loved following along with you move and the changes you are making to your new home. I first discovered your blog a couple of years ago maybe, and although my house is not the same style, we will be redoing a house in Florida ( I will be looking towards your blog and others for ideas) this spring.

Thank you and congratulations on your home, Susan! You could probably put this prize pack to good use with all new rooms to decorate! Good luck! XO
I love seeing real makeovers come to life. It inspires me and reminds me that I have time too….probably more than I think. Thank you for sharing in detail how you get from point A to point B. It makes all the difference knowing the process.
My pleasure, Kristina, thank you! I agree that seeing a project broken down makes it so much less intimidating! XO
Fabulous as always! I know you must have addressed it in another post, but what did you use as your wall color? Gray is tricky for me. Mine is a blue undertone apparently… and not what I was going for ???? Yours looks like a true gray. LOVE it.
Thanks, Jackie! The color is Campfire Ash by Behr and I love it!! It is a warm grey…more of a greige. 🙂
