~*How to "Shabby Chic" your piece*~

  • Find the piece you want to "Shabby" up. (Usually something wooden)
  • Paint it white. You can use spray or canned paint.
  • Let the paint dry.
  • Take a piece of sand paper and rubbed it on the edges to take off some of the paint. Just until the underneath wood shows through. Take off a lot.....or take off a little. Sand the edges until they look good to you.
You'll find you want to paint everything white and sand all the edges......
.....Happy Shabby Chic..ing!
