I’ve jumped on the chalk paint furniture painting band wagon. Last February – I know, I know, 9 months ago, I purchased an old desk for Blondie’s room with the plans to refinish it. So, the week before Thanksgiving I finished it up. I think every girl who grew up in the 70’s and 80’s most likely had this set. I certainly did and I disliked the original finish then as I do now. Funny how styles change, tastes change and the ability to create changes us and how we respond to those items in our life that don’t shine like they used to.
