Chalk Paint

It's coming along.  A few more coats of polycrylic on the top, then some wax......

Update 6/24 am:  finished the table and chairs last night.  My hands and wrists are so sore, but worth every ache.  Although I am very pleased with the results, the polycrylic left brush marks on the table top.  I think I'll try to sand it smooth and then repaint and maybe just wax or do something to minimize the marks.

 The before and after (let there be light!):

I think I've picked Chelsea Gray, a medium warm gray, for the buffet.  Gonna have to let my hands rest a few days before I tackle more painting projects.
