I just happened upon your video and am so glad I did. Your instructions are wonderful and are inspiring me to get started with chalk paint. The finished cabinet is beautiful! Your fabric store looks outstanding. Yes, I'm a new subscriber, too. ; )
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it.
Helen Louise I don’t wannaIf you hear OK
I just also happened upon your video. LOVE IT!
I have a beat-up credenza that was once beautiful (maybe from 40's) that I just purchased for $50 and is in much need of TLC. YOU HAVE INSPIRED ME TO PAINT IT. I am nervous! 😬😁 but I have your video!
Now I just need Annie Sloan paint!❣
Hi before u put the second coat of wax how long should u wait.
You did a great job explaining everything. I’ve been painting furniture for about 2 years with chalk paint so I have a few tips to help anyone that wants to try this.
1. Use shellac to prime- this will help you save paint and prevent wood staining from showing through the final coat.
2. After the first coat, you can thin out the paint ( In a separate tub - use one of those Chinese soup containers with a small amount of paint and water) to help extend the dry time and for smoother coverage. I would also recommend brushing all in one direction using the flow of the wood grain
3. If you have a high traffic surface I would also recommend using lacquer to prevent chipping and scratches. The lacquer is also easier to clean and you won’t have to reapply every 6 months like you do with wax.
Yes, absolutely. Most of the chicks on CZcams showing how to chalk paint don’t know what the heck they’re doing.
The spot is called bleed through and you should spray shellack on top before you apply another coat of paint.
I clean all my pieces with a TSP cleaner mixed with water and this was suggested by my Annie Sloan dealer. That will help remover any spray furniture polish and build in dirt.
I pour my paint into another container with a good sealing top. I love glass bowls the rubber lids. After the first coat, I mix my Annie Sloan paint with a bit of water, makes for a much smoother coat, really helps with brush strokes. I have never had to put more than 2 coats with small touch ups in some places.

Peggy Mooney Lol yep I’ve seen lots of other videos on this.
For a real Smooth finish ...use a roller ....perfect finish 😍
For a really smooth finish, lightly sand with a fine (400grit) sandpaper and you will end up with a silky smooth surface which feels lovely. You can also slightly dilute the top coat so that it creates less brush marks. If you have some brown discolouration leaching through your paint, you should have primed the piece with a blocking primer such as Zinzer. Stained wood will always leach through light paint and some pieces of furniture may have stains which can only be blocked by priming.
I am so glad I saw your comment! I am having issues with stains and brush marks and your comment is the first one that has helped me! Thank you! It's my first go at chalk paint so I am learning!
I also heard to dilute the paint with a little water and to use 200 grit sandpaper. You might have to apply multiple coats the thinner the paint is diluted. You can also lightly sand in between coats if you want.
So basically one painted, you sand it down with the fine grit then you either can wax or poly it up??
Do you sand before or before the last coat or after all coats ?
I have used Anne Sloan, and Rustoleum brand, and I get the same effect with the Rustoleum, and I save money. Thanks for sharing your project, it turned out beautifully. 😊
Hi, I am planning on redoing a console. You recommend
Rustoleum? Which one do you use? Thx
Dee Moe hi, I use Rustoleum chalked ultra matte paint, 30 oz Linen White. Good luck 😊
@@thefeatheredhag4279 Thank you for the great tip!
How do you not get yellowing? Do you use a wax or top coat?
@@deemoe494 Frenchic paint is the easiest to use out of them all... I used to use Annie Sloane and then tried Rustoleum.But for me Frenchic tops all of them!..
Great tutorial. Most of the ones I've seen with chalk paint have a distressed finish or finish with dark wax and that's not a look I like. Loved seeing that you can get a full coverage with the chalk paint and smooth finish with the wax. The number of coats and how much paint was used was helpful info, too.
Yes, I don’t care for the distressed look either. I like this more
I don't like distressed either!
O my GAWD!! I had no idea that u don't have to sand when using this type of paint on wood grain!!
Thanks for making a really helpful video. I think that you have given me the courage to try it myself. And you have a lovely quilt shop. I sure wish I lived closer.
Thanks! If you are also a Quilter, everything in the store is available online at shop.quiltaddictsanonymous.com
I also came upon your video just per chance and exactly at the right moment for me! I have a cupboard that I wanted to paint bright white and since I have never painted before, I was a bit hesitant to get started. But your tutorial was wonderful, just what I needed. Thanks!
If it is a kitchen or bathroom cupboard, seal it with shellac instead of wax. The finish will be more durable.
I am new to chalk paint and this was very helpful, great information and clear instructions, including some of your replies.Thank you. Love the shop too.
Thank you so much! I would love to see pics of anything you paint. Tag me on Instagram @quiltaddictsanonymous
Thank you so much!!!!You are the only one who explain with every detail how to do the chalk paint!!!!
Thank you! I hope you create something fabulous.
Just found this ... thanks so much for a complete run through of this amazing transformation. Given me the confidence to go ahead a try my own transformation of an old nest of tables ... Take care everyone 😉
Enjoyed the Tutorial, The cabinet came out gorgeous !! Love your shop !! Can’t wait to start my project😊
I have a lovely Bar at home which is at present the same colour you originally started with, You have now made me paint this and hopefully have the end results you've achieved.
I love Chalk paint..I use a a small roller as I get a better coverage & use less paint... just my preference 🙋♀️
After my final coat is dry, I lightly hand-sand with 400 grit. Makes the surface ultra silky and smooth. Beautiful cabinet!🌸 Good to use a primer before painting to avoid bleed-through.
Do you use latex primer and also, what do you put it on with... brush or sponge roller??
I use KILZ®️ or Zinsser®️ All-Purpose primer. A roller is fine, but I prefer a brush. It’s whatever is your choice. A roller makes the job go quicker!😊
Wonderful tutorial on painting with chalk paint. You’ve inspired me to start a project painting a coffee table here I go!
Can’t wait to see what you create! Tag @quiltaddictsanonymous on Instagram so I can see.
Love it, my mom has the same exact sewing cabinet, can't wait to show her the video. Great job!
Well, what did she say?
Just a thought - I think it would be really good to use 1 coat of primer (like Zinsser BIN - Water Based) - that would cover and seal and provide a fairly solid white base. Then you can do the Chalk paint coat. I think foam roller would be good too for smoother coverage. Then cover with a top coats (x2 or x3) with sanding between.
Great suggestion!
@@QuiltAddictsAnonymousll those ladies on UTUB say and do that also!
I paint all my bedroom furniture with chalk paint love it.
Did you use Ann Sloan paint and how much paint did you need
It is just like buffing your shoes! That is a ton of elbow grease. Looks really pretty! 🌸
Looks very pretty. But I bought me a can of Rust-Oleum linen white for $13. And I only had to use two coats on my curio cabinet tables Etc, and I still have a lot of paint leftover and the coverage and the work is gorgeous. So I painted a lot of furniture for 13 bucks.
Awesome Video! Im just beginning my furniture flip journey and there's SOOOO much info out there but this is really detailed and explains well, plus its not alot of items used which is great for first timers!!
Thanks! Have fun flipping furniture.
You are multi talented I see
Love the way this cabinet looks! I have a lot of dark wood furniture I had and then inherited but I love the beauty of the white.
Thank you so much!
I just came across this after watching some other non helpful chalk videos. This is great , I am going to attempt my bedroom furniture but would like to do it in the blue/grey colours that are popular right now .
You can do it!
So pretty!
Very nice!!
Dude here nice job. Well i made my own custom Desk since I am PC Gamer. paint i used just was blah. hehe. Just found about Annie sloan Chalk paint think this one i should have used. Great video thanks for teaching me how to use it.
You’re welcome!
I heard about your site -- and I had to subscribe! You do such a nice job on furniture! I subscribed! Love to see more!
No way! I was listening to your "accent" and asked my son who you sound like and he said me - I am originally from East Moline and went to Alleman. I currently live in Las Vegas and have since 1989 (I am much older than you) -still call the QC's home tho! Your tutorial was excellent - you made it easy to follow and love your explanations.Your final product looked flawless and your shop looks amazing! My grandma and Aunts had a shop in Moline off of 34th St and 23rd ave, maybe you had seen it, The Stitchin' House. I am so glad I listened to the very end so I could figure out where I have heard that dialect before. Keep up the great work -looking forward to watching your other videos! Happy Holidays! Natalie
I am actually from the Chicago suburbs, but have been in the QC for nearly half my life!
This is the best video I ve seen. Very impressed all the way.
Where did you find the Buffing brush with white bristles? Great job!!!
Thank you! I bought the buffing brush at a local store that is no longer in business. Unfortunately there are no identifying marks on the buffing brush to help me source it from somewhere else.
fantastic job. this is the most helpful chalk paint video i've seen. thank you.
We are going to paint a couple of items of furniture. This gives you the confidence to do it step by step.
Fabulous!
That's a great job ...you go girl !
With this video Stephanie Soebbing has been a very good PÉDAGOGUE as to show me what to do, what to expect and 'why' we do it. I am in the process of painting old furniture with Chalk Paint and I was missing the practical advices Stephanie game me . Merci beaucoup Stéphanie
You welcome!
What a beautiful Piece!!!!
It looks marvellous!
Thank you for sharing I'm going to paint my cabinet this way this is beautiful 🤗🤗
Well done! A great transformation. Thanks for the video.
Thanks so much!
New subscriber. I too, happened on to your video. Bought Annie Sloan paint/brushes today. Excited about my rocking chair project! Your instructions are great.
Fabulous! I can’t wait to see the before and after on Instagram.
I'am from Puerto Rico and i watch the video today. I want to chalk paint my dinning table, can you please tell where can i buy the Annie Sloan paint?
Annie Sloan is the only chalk paint I use for my projects..Their selection of colors are great
Me too ! Annie Sloan the best paint in the World 💕
Love that sewing cabinet. Your shop is so beautiful!!
Looks beautiful great video luv it
Any marks that show through can be put right ...a little Shellac paint over the Marks ..wait to dry then paint over ...💕 love your videos ..
Great idea!!
Excellent tutorial. I feel ready now to start my dining room table legs and chair set. Love your shop, well merchandised from what I can see. Thanks! Grace
Thanks Grace! If you make something post it to Instagram and tag us @quiltaddictsanonymous so we can see what you created!
Yes-- dilute your second coat. But don't dilute your can of paint. POur the required amount into another small container (like dollar tree food containers) THEN add water - a teaspoon at a time until you get a good consistency. THen clear wax. IF you are using dark was, make sure to put clear wax on first then you can do the dark wax and then wipe it off. IF you have too much dark wax on your piece, rub a little clear wax to use as an 'eraser' then wipe it off again
The discoloration is tannin from the wood. Please don't keep painting over it. Spray it with shellac or a clear coat let it totally dry and then paint over it. Also when your paint is not totally dry and you paint another coat over it you are pulling off the undercoat and working harder. Let it dry first. Always paint in the direction of the grain.
Annie Sloan herself says just slap it on going any old direction. Watch her painting videos. The shellac tip is good one though. It works over gel stain too, to prevent stain lift when putting a brushed on top coat over the stain.
@@kimcox66030 Is this just an issue with painting lighter colors onto darker pieces? I was thinking last night adding my second coat that perhaps I should have sanded first as the wood and stain were darker. I also had to use wood putty in one spot. I am thinking of sanding it all and using a darker tan color and not the light grey. And then use the spray water on the top layer. I will learn eventually. :-)
I agree..much better results to paint with the grain !
Love it just got a old cabinet and can’t wait to paint, thanks for a great video. 😄
Fabulous! Tag @quiltaddictsanonymous on Instagram when you are done. I’d love to see what you create!

Looks great....would have used a vacuum to remove dust inside. Would have used a foam roller for smother coverage. Enjoyed the make over.
This was inspiring...I want to do an entire built in wall cabinet. 🤔😥😭 I am so scared to do this but the wood wall is just so depressing. I want a fresh new look. 😁
Great job! It looks beautiful!
i cant wait to start my antique hutch will let you know how it turns out great information
Sounds like a fun project!
Thanks so much for all of your advice - Never seen or used a brush to buff up the surface on my projects before ! Thanks for the great tip it the end result looks amazing! 🌹
Thanks so much! Hope you give it a try.
looks beautiful! Good video, thanks very much!
Great tutorial!!!!
You should get a cheap little air compressor with a blower tip to clean out the inside real good. It'll blow out any debris from spaces that you wouldnt be able to get to
Great video. Thank you
안녕하시라,,감사드립메,,,,,,,,You're the best teacher! Thank you so much,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Fantastic ,,환상적이랑께요👍
LOVE IT..Thank you for Sharing.
You’re welcome!
I loooove it ! ❤️
Wardrobe here I come! Thanks lady for your inspiration and wisdom ♡
This video is super helpful. Thank you!
Very helpful. Thanks sweetie
Great thanks very informative .
Great job! Another way to buff is use steel wool. I believe it's 0000 that works the best. Buff with lint free cloth and then use the steel wool. I have done many pieces and they come out so smooth.
Steel wool and wax don’t mix. It will ruin the color of the finish
I do it all the time with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and Annie Sloan Clear Wax. It does not ruin the color of the finish. I have several pieces of furniture that I have used this method on and they are as white as white can be.
if you use bullseye shallack prior to painting you won't get stains coming through the paint or yellowing as it seals those in..You can get the spray shallack couple coats does the trick especially when you are using WHITE or a light color, just a FYI
Thank you so much for this very informative video!
Wonderful tutorial!! Thanks so much!!
You’re welcome!
Is love to see an update on this to see how well the chalk paint held up.
This actually sits in our shop! If you look through our photos on our facebook page there is a full shot of the front room from March 2020 with this in there! It has a little wear on the top from displays and boxes being slid on top. But otherwise it is holding up beautifully!
Quilt Addicts Anonymous I just checked it out wow your work is amazing! You're very talented.
What a great video, your instructions are clear, easy to follow and very helpful, thank you for that ! Have subscribed now :)
I worked on antiques that were up to nearly 400 years old and have a couple pieces in museums, so not much of what I do will work with this kind of stuff. But, try soaking hardware in amonia for 10-20 minutes and rub with 0000 steel wool if it is brass. Also try washing the furniture with the same steel wool and Soilmax(used to be Soilax) and it will work way better than just water and doesn't need to be rinsed off. Lastly, never try to fix or refinish an actual antique as it will ruin it and drop it's value a lot. This is not a real "antique" since it is a mass production piece likely from the 50's or there abouts. But some antique furniture can be worth thousands or even millions and if you damage the original finish or even original glue it can drop the value 50% or more and to have a professional fix a damaged piece that has had it's original finish damaged can cost a few thousand dollars and still not bring back the full value.
Thank you for clarifying that this is not a real antique. So many people get super upset when I paint these, but just because it was made last century doesn’t make it valuable. I love it the way it is, and that is all that matter!
I can't say what exactly makes an antique, but mass produced and machined pieces like this don't normally make the cut for me. I think once you hit the Art Deco period(which doesn't meet my standard stated earlier) I start to view things as an antique, but that is probably because it is my favorite furniture personally. I have had the privilege of seeing some amazing pieces from private collections and you haven't lived until you have sat in a $1 million chair from 1670's made in Italy with hand made mahogany veneer. I was terrified as it was one of the first pieces I got to work on as the lead.
Robert M, do you have a CZcams channel or Twitter or a Website? Clearly your mindset is akin to mine and I’d love to follow someone with your knowhow and know “what”! Look forward to a reply. Thanks!
I loved the video and the end result. Thank you for repeating yourself. It helped. I am new to chalk paint and very excited to paint an older wardrobe using your method. Also your shop is beautiful. All the colors made the best back ground for that cabinet. I'm looking forward to your next video.
Thank you Cynthia!
does it matter what wax you use? like the brand of the wax after application of this particular chalk paint?
Best DIY I’ve seen. U r good
Can you use a foam roller brush to apply the the first couple coats?
why can't you use a roller? Where do you get this paint?
The beauty of the Annie Sloan paint is that it goes on any surface. I have just thought it would be a much better idea to prime dark wooden surfaces first with a cheap white paint so that you need less coats of the more expensive chalk paint.
But then Annie wouldn’t be making all that money from you. 😂
I love it!.. following you now!
Thank you for the video 💕
I really enjoyed your tutorial, very informative. I have been wanting to do my dining room table and chairs, and my China cabinet, there is 2 doors with glass, any suggestions. Thanks.
Hey Stephanie. thank you very much for the video. Can I apply the same process going straight to a teal or pink color or I'd have to paint white first to then change to a different color?
Very helpful, thank you. Looks great! x
I am new to your channel. I love the way you explain how to do the job, and what to expect. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome!
Not sure if you knew but this sewing cabinet has a sliding top that turns into a lowered section when the sewing machine is raised. You have to use the lever on the side while pulling up and sliding the front top piece over.
To stop bleed-throughs or stains from popping up try using shellac before you paint.
Nice job!
great instruction thanks so much
There are other good quality chalk paints with the quality of Annie Sloan (which I also like): Dixie Belle, Amy Howard, Country Chic are some. Walmart carries Waverly, which goes on a bit thinner, but end result is good. After reading reviews I found that people didn't like the chalk paints they were finding at the big box stores, such as Valspar and Rust-oleum (although one of the comments below said they like Rust-oleum's chalk paint). I haven't tried those myself, but after painting my bathroom cabinets with regular paint...I used more paint, it took longer and was just more difficult to use, I'm painting my kitchen cabinets with Dixie Belle chalk paint. Just started, but so far so good. Did you know you can paint fabric, ceramics and almost anything else with chalk paint. The stuff is a marvel and so easy to clean-up afterwards.
Can you use this technique to paint slightly glossy varnished wood?
You can paint any wood with chalk paint
Thank you so much! I'm so excited to try this!
nice finish. would you also suggest using a roller brush to avoid the appearance of brush strokes?
I have never used a roller with chalk paint, and the only time I have seen it used is to do a stencil, so I'm not sure how it would turn out.
So cute when your daughter chimed in!😊😊😊

I have had good luck with chalkpaint but I'm wondering if you are using the correct paintbrush. The round brush is used for stippling adding texture I used flat brush and there was no visible brushstrokes
Is Annie Sloan Chalk paint available in Australia ?
Thank you for sharing this - you do a great job on the video, you explain everything really well, and I found it very informative. But about the chalk paint - what am I missing? I drank the cool aid, tried it on my cabinets, and had a horrible experience applying multiple coats and trying to hide brush marks. I wish I had seen this video first, and I would have sanded, primed, and painted with latex instead. 3 passes total. The big selling point everyone was telling me on chalk paint is that “you don’t have to sand or prep”. I’m not sure that’s a fair statement when you have to wash, coat, coat, coat, coat, wax, wax, buff. The first 5 passes = “prep work”. I’m thinking it would have been so much easier to use latex. Why does everyone love this stuff so much????
It is really just the white that needs a lot of coats like this. All of the other colors I have used have gotten full coverage in two coats with some touch up on a third. It is really easy to hid your brush strokes and feet a nice smooth finish. And for cabinets, you really want to finish with shellac instead of wax so it holds up better to the abuses of everyday kitchen messes. I am going to use it on my kitchen cabinets some day, but not white, a darker color that uses less coats.
I like waverly brand from Walmart. And it’s budget friendly priced. I’ve used Annie Sloan. I prefer the Waverly. But I like the AS waxes best.
Same here
Brilliant. Thank you.
You’re welcome!
Is this a good way to convert window and door trim from a red oak to white? Will it hold up?
For trim I use semi gloss and kilz primer. That way it is easier to clean.
Quilt Addicts Anonymous semi gloss poly?
Quilt Addicts Anonymous does it hold up? I’m wondering if there’s an easy way to do it without needing to prep the wood too much.
Semi gloss white paint. And I just clean it with tsp, prime with kilz and then cover with two coats of semi gloss. You’ll want to fill any nail holes and caulk any seams in between the priming and the paint.
Quilt Addicts Anonymous thank you for your feedback. One final question - is there anything you do to the wood prior to the kilz to get the primer to stick to the existing poly on the trim?
Dear Annie, Do you have any video of a black painted item that you painted in light color and a distressed style? Thank You
Thank you for your video, your furniture looks amazing after your work. I have a chest of drawers and a small Ikea bed stand and i~ll be following your instructions, thank you
What can I do not to have the brush strokes, I like it very smooth🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
And is there a high gloss, I would like that.
