    Waverly chalk paint, is inexpensive, and ACTUALLY works better than the expensive SUSAN SLOAN paint, using this method. Your furniture turned out beautifully! Thank you!

    I followed debis design dairy from here on YT, to paint my chair. I used her clay paint, which is free of any toxins and the colors are amazing. Turned out great. Not crunchy or hard. Once you get over that initial panic of “oh my, what am I even doing” and just go with it, it’s a lot of fun to watch the transformation.

      I recently saw someone who used fabric softener mixed in the water and in the paint to make the fabric soft. I've been thinking about painting my old thrift store sofa but don't want to make it worse than it is now. 😕 Decisions, decisions...never easy for me to make!

    Love it! Did this to my $30 thrifted tufted sofa and it worked great. I sealed it with wax and it was soft but a little more like leather or vinyl feeling. When we screened in our porch I put it out there and it works perfectly! The wax makes the fabric stain, mold, and mildew resistant. Almost like outdoor furniture!

    Looks really nice! I was blessed and given a sofa and two chairs in this same style for free. I was planning on reupholstering but I think I will try painting now. A family members grandmother died and no one wanted the living room set bc it was "not in style" or "old lady looking". It was going to be put for the trash to pick up. I love it
