I am sharing a simple project today.  I have been thinking of painting this table for a while and could’t decide on exactly what I wanted to do. I really like the look of the grain sack fabric and thought I would do my version of it on this little table.

I used my last bit of Pure White Annie Sloan Chalk Paint.  I did two coats with a good sanding in between each coat. I painted the blue stripes Sherwin Williams Indigo Batik. Once everything was dry I used my sanding block to rough it up a bit and makes the stripes a bit faded so It looked more like the grain sack cloth stripes

 I picked this table up a long time ago for a few dollars at a consignment shop.  I liked the color when I picked it up and it looked perfect in the kitchen by my bench. I have since moved it upstairs in my sitting room and the color just didn’t go with my bedroom.

This was the piece before…

I use this little table all the time.  It is so versatile.
