This old chest was transformed into a modern, bohemian treasure with Chalk Paint™ and Gilding Wax. We love the contrast with the rich blues painted on the chest. To follow step-by-step instructions on this project, head over to the Annie Sloan blog.

The Gilding Waxes can be used over an entire painted project or to highlight details such as mouldings. To create a distressed look, apply a small amount with a lint-free cloth, a brush or your fingers, to allow some of the paint below to show through. To cover the surface more densely, add a little more Gilding Wax.

Choose from five colours in 15 ml tubes priced at approx. $15: Warm Gold, Bright Gold, Dark Silver, Bright Silver and Copper. Find the Annie Sloan range of products at Stockists across Canada and online. Visit www.anniesloan.com for locations. —Vita Daily
