"Dirty Donna!"

Meet my newest "Dirty Girl" Donna....

I had this poor thing collecting dust in my entry way for about a year now..

Not because I didnt WANT to paint her...She just hadn't told me the color yet! My knee jerk is TURQUOISE but hell, If I keep painting EVERYTHING turquoise..they're gonna have to call me "Turoquoise LOCO"'N-T, Who..I decided to go with white..

And I liked her with this "Moderate"distressing, but.....

 Once I got that sander in my hot little hand I couldn't STOP, something took over me! That distressing felt so RIGHT! Now! It wouldn't be a Shabby Loco Original if I didn;t have SOME turquoise in there?! Duh...So, I dry brushed some here and there for depth and contrast ;)

 Long story short, I whacked her, smacked her and stripped her down..and I lub it! Hope you do too..

Now, How am I going to sell this one..Ugh! #Painterchickproblems

White & Mahogany vintage desk

Well, I must be on my meds!

I'm quite the the poster this week huh'?...And it's only Tuesday!!

I apologize for the lack of before picts... =/  but I wanted to share a nice antique "Angeles Furniture Company" 

Desk I picked up.

Some inside shots..

hmmm.. with or with out the mirror?...

I used Annie Sloan chalk paint in "Old white". (Which you can buy from my rock star stockist Debbie ;) )
I refinished the top using "Restore A finish", since it was in pretty good shape, and sealed it with bees wax. The legs and sides were Stained and distressed using my mash up technique of clear and dark wax. So, that's it in a nutshell...

Hope ju' likey!
Gracias!
