Prim Chalkboard Shelf

I am really loving this mustard color milk paint.  I have always loved the warmth of this color.  I can see this color in an 1800's farm house with wide-plank dark wood floors and an old brick fireplace that works.  Yes, that would be in my dream house :)
I took another one of these shelves that I built and turned it into a chalkboard using some chalkboard paint from Walmart.  This stuff goes really far.  It is the same can that I used to paint my old refrigerator.
So this is before:
 Here it is finished.
I waxed the mustard milk paint with clear and dark wax.
 This is another item that will be at my sale in 4 weeks.
I feel like I am running out of time!!!

  2. Tammy, I notice you live in PA. Are the milk paint and dark wax sold locally near you, or do you have to order online? There is nowhere locally where I live to buy it. Just wondering. Love that shelf/color!
