It&#39;s not beautiful as I have expected.

I also bought some fresh Marimekko floral fabric in greens, turquoise, orange, aubergine, deep red and burnt orange for the chair upholstery. It&#39;s called Kierto. So I was thinking of perhaps painting the set white, but seeing how nice the turquoise color you did on a similar chair here inspires me to perhaps go with that color. I would love to send you a photo and get your input...thanks.lvdesignzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05138455468284719537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1454517372986638242.post-65622895686803613132010-07-24T09:48:25.604-06:002010-07-24T09:48:25.604-06:00I&#39;m sorry to bug you with this as I&#39;m sure you&#39;ve answered this before but I&#39;ve been looking around your site to try to find out what brand and colour paint you use to do your turquoise chairs? <br /><br />By the way thanks for the wonderful ideas and tutorials...you&#39;re beyond talented!Canadian Princesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07527562552810874890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1454517372986638242.post-10268506954313738212010-07-01T16:31:45.929-06:002010-07-01T16:31:45.929-06:00What brand of paint did you use and what was the sheen?

So, I suggest going in on a quart of glaze with a friend, or maybe trying to buy a small container online. <br /><br />A little glaze will go a LONG ways so if you know of anyone who has some, you can tint it with paint. That is what I did. I got brown glaze at a yard sale and then I mixed in black paint. <br /><br />You can also try to just water down paint to make it extremely thin and try to use it as a glaze. I&#39;ve never done it, but it would probably work. <br /><br />Oh an the glaze I used was Ralph Lauren brand.<br /><br />Good luck...REMEMBER to send pictures!<br />-BrookeBrooke @ www.allthingsthrifty.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01096741381057619734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1454517372986638242.post-28218258133481923822009-12-07T15:43:58.088-07:002009-12-07T15:43:58.088-07:00Where did you get the black glaze? I went to the craft store yesterday and they said that nobody carries black glaze anymore. I went to Lowe&#39;s and they said it only comes in a quart size. Did you get yours in a small bottle somewhere? What kind of glaze was it?<br /><br />Thank you SO much! I love this blog...SO many fun ideas!!!

I cant believe the visions you and kallie can come up with, i am pretty sure i would never have thought to re-vamp those chairs, the fabric on the back would have thrown me off!
