It has been a busy week.  All the boys are back in school and it is our first week without our oldest.  He is away at college and I am missing him!  So it has been a bit difficult to get motivated to work on projects.  I thought I would ease into it with a small redo on an old storage chest.  With my youngest in school, he wasn’t here to remind me to take a before shot of the chest.  Sorry about that!

This is the finished chest.  I used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint from my left over projects (Old White).  I did two coats then did a light sanding.  Once it was dry I used black acrylic craft paint and stenciled on the letter K.  I also use painters scotch blue tape to tape off the black trim line.  Just a simple project to ease me back into the school routine.  Right now I have it in my foyer in our home  off the Island but I do think I will take it next time we head across the bridge.
