BB Frösch Chalk Paint Powder

10 · Aug 6, 2014 · 11 Comments

BB-Frösch-Chalk-Paint-Powder-Round

If you have been following me on Instagram for the last little bit, you’ve seen some of the fun furniture projects that I’ve been working on using BB Frösch Chalk Paint Powder.

What is BB Frösch Chalk Paint Powder? It is the most amazing paint product that I have found… EVER!! This is seriously a game changer in the paint world.

We know we all love to use Chalk Paint for all kinds of projects, whether they are furniture projects for the house or simple craft projects. The issue is that boutique chalk paints have a PREMIUM price tag which is typically too expensive for most consumers.  Another issue… You have a limited selection of colors. You only have at most, 35 colors to choose from. What if you want the chalk paint look but they don’t have the color that you would like… You are out of luck.

You can try to create your own chalk paint with common items like Plaster of Paris, but you have several issues there as well. First off… Plaster of Paris is meant to harden. So… whatever paint you mix, within a few hours turns to rock. Second, did you know that some components in Plaster of Paris are on the list of the hazardous chemicals? You can actually burn yourself using the stuff!!

I’ve teamed up with a good friend of mine who has developed the perfect product… Chalk Paint Powder.

You add this powder to any flat latex paint and turn it into chalk paint for a fraction of the cost. Plus you can mix up smaller batches if you want, cutting your cost even further. For example…

I painted this dresser in three hours, start to finish, with an 8 oz. sample pot of paint from Home Depot. The dresser was purchased on Craig’s list for $16, the sample pot was $2.95 at Home Depot, the BB Frösch Chalk Paint Powder cost $2.50 and the soft wax used to finish the project was less than $1.00. Total… I was able to refinish this dresser for $6.45!!

Total cost for the dresser… $22.45!!

That’s INCREDIBLE!!!

This desk…

Again, it took a sample pot of  Behr flat paint $2.95 at Home Depot, $2.50 for BB Frösch Chalk Paint Powder less than $1.00 for wax and gold spray paint. New hardware was $12.00 and the cost of the desk from a garage sale… $10.00.

Total for the entire piece (including the desk)… $28.45!!

Like I said before… GAME CHANGER!!

Gold Accent Picture Frame with DecoArt Dazzling Metallics

1 · Apr 30, 2013 · 4 Comments

Gold Accented Picture Frame with DecoArt // I have fallen in LOVE with gold accents! They seem to be all the rage right now, and I am totally jumping on  the trend bandwagon. Yesterday I had the opportunity to take DecoArt’s Dazzling Metallics for a test drive while I dressed-up an old picture frame…

DecoArt Dazzling Metallics Gold Accented Frame-3

I had this old frame from Target that I had spray painted blue (another new fav) but it needed a little extra love. Recently I had added some gold accents to an old wood bowl and thought it would be fun to dress-up the frame the same way. The lovely part of this project is that it was soooo easy! You know me, nothing too challenging here. I chose DecoArts Dazzling Metallics Champagne Gold for my paint and set to work…

DecoArt Dazzling Metallics Gold Accented Frame-1

The frame has flower like petal grooves that were carved out and would act as a perfect natural place for a gold petal accent. Carefully, I filled in the grooves with the metallic paint…

DecoArt Dazzling Metallics Gold Accented Frame-2

That’s all there was to it. I filled in all the grooves and let it dry and then added a second coat. After a few hours of drying time, my new frame was ready for display!

DecoArt Dazzling Metallics Gold Accented Frame-3

I added one of my favorite Instagram photos of my sweet Emily and her friend and put it on display with my gold accented bowl. They make a perfect pair!

Do you have anything laying around the house that could use a little gold pick me up? You’ll be surprised how much it can add to a room! And if you happen to have real gold items — maybe old jewelry or décor pieces — and you’re curious how much your gold is worth, you can use this scrap gold calculator to estimate its value before upcycling or repurposing it! Check out DecoArts full line of Dazzling Metallics for all kinds of inspiration.
