These tutorials have really helped me. I am in the middle of my 2nd project (a China cabinet) probably too big of a project for a beginner, but I did so well on my first one( I think so anyway 😊) that I thought I could handle it. Wish me luck on completing it! Love your work!
Good luck,go for it,you can do it.just painted a chair and my husband wants to know how to distress.
Hi Christina. I gotta tell you…I so look forward to your videos. I've watched many others on chalk painting but you are my favorite. I like how you are succinct, explain why you do what you do, and are very organized. The printed tips at the bottom as you go along and clear camera shots are a plus. Very well done, so thank you. A pleasure to watch and learn from. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words!
Christina Muscari w
Thank God for you!!!! I have watched many diy personalities.
Some are really good, but by far you are the best of the best!!!!
Your extremely personable, fun to watch, and very on point.
You have no idea how much I appreciate you not waisting peoples valuable time. A lot of rambling out there. Thank you so much!!!! I subscribed!
Thanks so much! I feel like I ramble, so I think you are giving me way too much credit. 😂 Happy painting!
Im so glad that I found this tutorial! Have watched so many other diy by other ppl but this was more organize and informative. looking forward to future videos of urs oh and thnks for putting this up for ppl like us
I am happy I found your tutorial. I have an old dresser neighbor threw out. (Lucky me) I am so looking forward to getting my paint & getting started. I can't thank you enough for your clear explanations & great ideas for home decor. I just love the distressed look. Thank you so much for your work.
Omg, thank you, I working on 3 pieces and I dont like how it's coming out. But your video will allow me to finish pieces , thank you!
I loved your video so much...I just chalk painted my grandmother's cedar chest...and it looks fabulous! I've watched your video over and over. Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you.
Christina, I can't wait to start this process. This is the best tutorial I have found. Thank you so much.
I'm not really understanding the purpose of the steel wool instead of a clean lint free rag, especially since the steel wool "sheds" as you said
Just what I needed, just when I needed it.🙏🏽Thank You Christina!
I loved your distressing
Thank you so much! This video was exactly what I was looking for.
Love your tutorials, Christina. YOU inspired me to attempt my first restoration on a pair of ugly bedside tables that were headed for the trash heap. I followed your instructions and the results were lovely! I thank you for giving me a new-found love for turning trash into treasures.
Thank you so much! I love the idea of using steel wool. I did this before and I thought I was going to keel over from rubbing with a soft cloth! This is much better. I have three large antique mis-matched pieces in my bedroom I want to do this exact technique to, and add glass knobs to pull it all together.
love all your videos i think am ready to paint , your videos are very useful and straight to the point . keep them coming
Hey, just seen your video your awesome you make it look so easy peezy!! I am doing my cedar chest and I can't wait to finish. All the other videos I've watched don't use the steel wool,and I rather use that than a rag to wipe off excess wax. You explain it very well!!
Thank you I've watched several tutorials yours was the one that, I said to myself do it!
Inspiring tutorial! I feel like I can do this myself ♥️ thank you ♥️
Thanks for such a great video and explanation, Christina!
Does clear wax go on first? If so, how long do you leave it cure before applying the dark wax?
Excellent tutorial!
Thank you so
much for amazing instructions! you’re an inspiration 🥰
Hi Christina! Покажи, пожалуйста, как сделать ящик, который на комоде за спиной у тебя, мне он ну очень понравился
For how long do you let the wax sit before wiping it?
the piece already looks finished!
your video has a pop up that says to dark wax over wet clear wax, yet your piece has been completely done with clear wax...so did you immediately, after the clear wax go to your dark wax? I'm asking because I have a piece where I'm done with the clear wax but have to go to an appointment. Therefore, when I get back or tomorrow, will I have to clear wax again before applying dark wax?
Great tutorial. Learned a lot for a beginner.
I favor Scandinavian and clean lines. From a design perspective- how do you (anyone) feel the chalk paint and distress methods would look with this style of furniture?
Hello Cristina I am Georgia from Greece!!! I am watching your videos some time now and I love everything you're showing us!!! I want to ask you something.I want to paint with chalk paint a brown table of wood in white, but I want to see some brown colour underneath .How I will do it.Please tell me.💟💟💟
Nice job! :D It turned out lovely!!
Love your work!
Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for.
You're welcome!
Thank you! Loved your tutorial.
You are so welcome!
Great video Christina! Thank you for the tips. Well done. Subscribed!
You made it look so easy, thanks.
WOW! I absolutely love this look :-)
Again, I learned something from you again today! You are truly amazing! I never knew to use steel wool on the dark! It gives a much better look. I can hardly wait to use the dark wax again to see the difference it makes. Do you use steel wool with Dixie Bell dark wax also? Thanks!
Great videos thanks Christina !
I want to do my dresser in old white but I would like to have a darker top. Should I just destress the top heavier to get some of the natural wood to show through or use the dark wax? I just do not want the piece ALL white and the only other option is the color graphite which is black. I'm not feeling too comfortable doing a black top but I do want the top of my piece much darker then the body. Please give me your opinion. Thank you.
I love your how-to videos. But I have a question, what is the purpose of spraying water to the brush and the paint? Thank you!
Thank you! Its a personal preference.
Nice work 👌 I'm inspired ! I found a round side table with a music theme base on the road side tonight !😀
Great, David! I'd love to see pics.
I’d love to see that. Side of the road pieces are great finds
Very nice! I would love to see close ups of the finished plain side panel that you waxed last.
if I want to distress a changing table, trying to get a washed out blue how would I go about that?
Hi Christine, I have a question. Can use a wax finish on top of a gel stain instead of a poly finish? I am doing a coffee table. The top I am doing with help stain. Also, do I have to use the brush to apply the wax or can I use a lint free cloth? Thanks in advance!!
Yes, you could use a wax to seal it. Once you put wax on though, you can't do any other topcoat on it. You an use a lint free rag to apply wax.
Very good tutorial.thank you
Love all your videos! Annie Sloan is hard to come by where I live. I want that old white look any recommendations.. I tried the links you have attached and they are all unavailable.
Hey can some tell me what top coat is best to go over wax and white chalk paint for protection from food and wine stains. Your inputs are greatly appreciated
Hi Christina, I have a question, why do we need to mix clear wax and dark wax? What happen if you use one the dark wax without mix it?
You don't have to. It's a preference for me. I find it blends better if I dilute it a bit, but you can use it full strength.
Thank you! Your videos are so easy to watch and listen to.You give great advice and you know when to speed things up. I'm really impressed! I subscribed and I'm going to give distressing a try! One question, did you leave the bottom drawer in the cabinet for a reason? I would have thought to take it our so you could get to the areas the drawer covers. Just curious.
Fabulous tutorial! Thank you so much! 🙏🏻💐
What color did you paint the hardware? I am trying to paint my handles to my dresser and struggling with what to buy
Good show! Very inspiring!
Does the dark wax dries up quick or it takes a lot of time ? Cos I’ve heard these stain wax can take more then 10 days?
Wax usually takes 30 days to fully cure.
Hi Christina... I know everyone says it doesn't matter if there is a finish on the piece, but I just tried to refinish a piece and did two colors and dark wax and I do not like the results... should have watched your videos first... can I just paint over my piece even though I used wax?? Thank you
+Larry Sienkiewicz If you don't like what you have, you can paint right over the wax. No prep necessary.
Your videos are great...as is your work! Your pieces are fantastic! Thank you for the tips!
I am going to be doing my first project with dark wax for a client, and I was wondering if you need to do clear wax on the piece and then come in with dark wax afterward, or can I just go right ahead with the dark wax.
Clear wax first, then dark wax.
@@janefranklin7771 Thank you!
Hi , do you have a video how you painted the old white before you started to apply the wax ? xx
Here is a good tutorial I did for an end table using white:
czcams.com/video/W9uCc6SXq4E/video.html
Hi! I have an old wooden table already painted white. Can I just add clear wax and then brown wax to it without repainting it? Or should I repaint it white over the current white paint?
I would repaint and then use the wax as your topcoat.
@@ChristinaMuscari ok thanks! Why repaint? Just to give it a fresh look?
did you use the ANNIE SALON WAX AND IF SO WAS IT BLACK OR BROWN IT JUST SAYS DARK. Planning on painting my kitchen cabinets and also wanted to know how the wax does on regular paint trying to decide it i want to do regular paint and dark wax or chalk paint and dark wax. Have 2 boys so need something durable
Dark Wax is what the brown wax is called. I don't really prefer the dark wax on latex paint. Its doesn't blend well like it does with chalk paint.
Good Job !! Thanks for sharing.
Hi. Please could you tell me what type of steel wool you use? Does it have to be extra fine, fine etc? Many thanks in advance!!
+S Pateman Extra Fine #000 or #0000. You don't want any higher than this or it will scratch and take off the paint.
+Christina Muscari Why do you use the steel wool?
beautiful work! i have 1 question....why are there so many how to videos using annie sloan chalk paint? is there some sort of incentive involved for using her products? If so, where do I sign up? I'll make a good video for some free (expensive) chalk paint
It used to be the only paint on the block. I never received any incentives to make these early videos. I just really loved the paint. There are so many paints to choose from now. It's great there are really affordable ones if you don't want to spend the money on the premium brands.
@@ChristinaMuscari thank you for the info.
Xclnt tutorial, thank you. Am new to this hobby and have a basic question. Where chalk paint brings a flat finish as part of its appeal, the waxing then masks this chalky finish with a low luster. Is waxing a necessary part of the project in order to protect the piece?
My wife and I refinish furniture with this look but we have a huge dresser in our bedroom that we did with Old White and then just left it that way with no distressing. Pair it with black hardware and stain the top of a piece with a dark color and then clear coat (and then buff like crazy) the top for a really clean look without the "haze" of wax. It will be unprotected though so having it on a high traffic piece will mean you'll have to do touch ups
Can I use the dark wax as a glaze over chalk paint that has general finishes top coat in flat on it instead of clear wax?
Yes, you can. It might be more difficult to blend on top of a top coat versus the clear wax. I would test a small spot to see how it goes on.
I have a farm table and 6 chairs I want to do. How much paint and wax do you think that will take? Should I do two coats of paint ?
Pam Streit how to apply ordinary chalk paint
So you applied clear wax over the whole thing before applying the clear wax-dark wax mixture?
Yes.
I am following this method but my piece looks a bit splotchy in the middle. What am I doing wrong? Also...my steel wool is shedding and tiny little fibers are getting into my brushes and the wax. Eek!! I bought exactly what you said you use. What the heck.
+Jessica Wilson The steel wool will wipe off when you gently wipe your piece with the lint free cloth. Use a lighter hand with your dark wax if you think it looks splotchy. Or you can cut it with more clear wax. You can also take clear wax over the splotchy part and it will lift some of the dark wax. It sometimes takes a bit a playing around to get it where you want. Good luck.
So I'm redoing a dresser and I didn't use chalk paint can I still use the wax? Will it work? Or do I need to use chalk paint?
+cortney glidden You can use wax over latex but it does really soak in like it does with chalk paint.
love these videos.
hi..how many coats of old white did u apply. can u use a roller or do u recommend a brush? is it possible to put clear wax then later come back and apply dark wax in the future or would u have to apply clear wax again before the dark wax? thanks so much!
+Shei W I did two coats here. You can apply dark wax after your clear wax has cured but I prefer doing it right after I apply to clear wax because it's easier to work with "wet."
+Shei W And I only use brushes because I prefer a hand painted look.
Do u happen to remember what color light blue/green the shutters are in the background?
They are Annie Sloan Duck Egg Blue.
Lovely tutorial! Do you have anything with Paris Grey?
Yes I do! czcams.com/video/_RCWEZPFft0/video.html
Hello. Why don't you buff in the wax?
Why did you put clear with the dark wax?
Is that Annie Sloan wax brush if it's not may I ask where you got your brush I didn't pick one up when I went out of town to get the wax and chalk paint so I'm trying to figure out where I might be able to get one similar to hers here where I live
That is a Annie Sloan wax brush. In my opinion this one is a good option you could get online.. joliehome.com/collections/brushes/products/jolie-wax-brushes?variant=9135177990188&aff=18. I also have used this one and like it as well. (Use code CHRISTINA for 20% off - I think it still works) codaartisans.com/shop/Waxine™-Wax-Brush-1-5-Made-in-USA-p80223180
czcams.com/video/ck_DsxirJ_0/video.html This video has a lot of my brushes that I use, with links in the description
Christina Muscari thank you
I have Annie’s dark wax but not the clear. Can I use another manufacturers clear wax with her dark? Thanks
You could, but it will work best with her clear wax in my opinion
Christina Muscari ok. Thanks!
Beautiful work!
Seems like you mixed a heck of a lot of wax on the plate when you used very little on the piece?
+Guy Christie Right? I did overdo it. I'm not used to painting a little piece like this. You can always save your leftovers in an airtight can or jar.
Wish I was brave enough to try this look 😊
I love love love it! I want to do a buffet and coffee table with this shabby look, but I want it to be white and gray. What would you recommend I use? Does the dark wax always turn out brown, or do they have a gray color?
Yes they have grey. Also white and black
looks great! looking to do this very same thing, would like to know what color of white is best to use...
Annie Sloan Old White is my favorite! That is what I used for this piece and the one behind it.
+Christina Muscari. Thanks so much, but does it have a dingy yellow look like antique white?
Shouldn't it be darker where the handle goes, obviously that have get the most use, if this was originally a distress piece.
Great tutorial! I did this on my dining room table. Is it ok to seal it? Thank you
Did you seal it? I am doing this now because my table is fucked.
love this ......I am in the process of doing this to a dresser similar to the large piece you have. Have already done the white chalk paint, and ordered the dark wax......I didn't order clear wax....is the clear wax stage necessary?
I would recommend using clear wax first or it will get really “muddy.” And I always mix a little clear wax with the dark to make it easier to work with. There is a link to it in my description.
thank you! :)
Thank you!
Aloha Christina --- love your channel :) Beautiful tutorial - what is the color of the 3 rectangular pieces that is behind the dresser? By chance did you do it with ASCP?
Yes! It is Annie Sloan Duck Egg Blue. My favorite accent color!
We believe newsboys
ASimplySimpleLife haircuts style
hi, awesome videos! very informative! and beautiful pieces! how long do you wait in between clear wax coat and then the dark?
+Jayme I do it right away because I find it's easier to blend if it is still "wet"
Do you out a clear sealer over it?
how long do i need to leave the clear was before i apply the dark x
+Tracey Paisey I apply dark wax immediately after the clear wax (while it is still wet).
all material are no longer available in amazon !!
I know. I am so bummed that Annie Sloan no longer sells online. I work with some great new paints you can get online though. Check out my Dixie Belle and Jolie videos. I highly recommend both brands.
What grit or whatever you call it with steel wool are you using?
000 or 0000 both will work.
Christina Muscari thanks
How do you clean a wax brush?
czcams.com/video/ck_DsxirJ_0/video.html
Hey Christina.....your pretty. Just sayin. Thanks for the videos.
What color chalk paint is that?
Annie Sloan Old White
I'm going to do this to my shutters... boom! Inspired
Great!
Chalk paint furniture is so overrated. Soon it will be out of fad/style (if it isn't already) since everyone and their mother is into it. Not everyone wants the farm look either. Just my honest two-cents.
