I painted this old vanity with Annie Sloan's chalk paint in the color Old White. I brushed on two coats. Then I hand-painted big, happy, yellow flowers on the drawers, and a cheerful yellow butterfly above the mirror with acrylic paint. I applied two coats of Minwax paste finishing wax and this piece of furniture is ready for adoption! I guess I should say auction. I have donated it to our local Humane Society for their annual auction scheduled for August 18th of this year. I hope it brings a good price to help out the animals at the shelter and I hope somebody will enjoy "beautifying" themselves in front of the mirror of this lovely old piece of furniture!
I am happy to report that this vanity was delivered to the Antietam Humane Society in Waynesboro, PA yesterday to be sold at their fundraiser auction on August 18th, 2012. The auction will be held at the American Legion.
