Gray Painted Chair
{Hi Friends}
Hope your week is going well.
I have been busy with furniture makeovers and paint projects.
My recent project is this little chair I painted a beach gray. (a color I made mixing two different colors)
I love to paint furniture and mix colors to come up with a custom color or a color that I want to match.
But sometimes things don't always go according to plan.
My plan was to paint the chair the same color as the duck eggs.
I mixed several cans of paint and thought I had the perfect match
Until I started painting
I realized it was not working out.
After tweaking the color several times I just couldn't get it right. So I threw in the towel and went with a different color. I decided to mix a couple of freebie paint samples I picked up from Lowes.
I mixed Cathedral Stone with Muslin Wrap {Both Valspar Paints}
Which made this pretty gray
I gave the paint a beach look by adding vinegar & water to the paint and painted over the chair again. When that dried I sanded the chair and the edges.
I love the way it turned out
Sometimes you just have to change your plan to come up with something even better.
