What is a chalk-style paint? It's a specialty decorative paint, designated and created for the artisan in you.You can use our special formula on furniture and walls, use one color or layer colors, it's a water based with a very low odor, has a very low volatile organic compounds (VOC's) so it's Eco-friendly, our special formula has a chalky matte finish, and has an amazing coverage with ONE coat. No priming or sanding needed. This chalk style paint will stick to most surfaces. It's so easy to use, you can revitalize, re-purpose, and refinish furniture like a Pro!!
It's easy to distress for a shabby look, to seal our paint we recommend a furniture wax. But it can be sealed with polycrylic, polyurethane, or lacquer. If you want the paint thicker, leave the can open until desired consistency. Or add a little water to use as a wash. We recommend using a bristle brush, but depending on the technique you can use sponge brush, roller or paint sprayer. Our paint is Made in U.S.A.
Try our top quality chalk-style paint...You will LOVE it!

For sale exclusively at Frisco Mercantile, soon we will open our shop online!

The Artisan Chalk™

Coming Soon to Frisco Mercantile!
Oh Lola! Vintage Paint Co.™

I couldn't be more proud of our own line of Decorative Furniture Paints. Here is a sneak peak of what our paint can offer you. Chalky matte finish, Beautiful rich colors, Eco-fiendly, Low VOC's and wonderfully covers with one coat of paint.

No sanding, no prep needed, just dust and start painting, this is "French Blue" one coat will do the job, if you desired a richer color can do a wash (mixing water with paint to thinner down) this particular table was done with only ONE coat.

This is how it looks when dried. I've distressed just a bit, I like the shabby look of worn furniture, you can do that with a sanding block.

Then is time to wax your piece. I used clear wax and then dark wax to create an antique patina on legs and table border.

This is the finished piece. I add a little gilt wax to add an accent gleam.

This piece is for sale at Frisco Mercantile, Suite 1509 "French Blue" Table ~Yadi

Furniture Makeovers.

I will share with you some of my projects, I don't always take pictures before I start working with a piece of furniture (a good thought for future projects) but here I will share just some samples of my work. For me, the renovation or transformation of a piece of furniture depends on many factors, such as the current condition, the wear, age and style, who belongs to, what use will have, but the most important of all is if it has potential, good structure... thick bones to finally change furniture into another, different from the original. I love to put my personal touch on each piece of the furniture I've worked with.  Some of these already found a new family, some are for sale at the shop. ~Yadi
