Truly Tattered....a wonderful Orange County Vintage Shop in Tustin

I stopped by Truly Tattered today and look what greeted me in the window. Wow, Debbie Cooper, So. California Mini-Stockist in Orange County, and Kim Kostka, and Patti Olson owners of   this very lovely shop in Old Tustin have created a fun fun display to highlight and welcome Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Orange County. Great job ladies.

Annie Sloan Chalk Paints, brushes and products are all over this wonderful window display
If you haven't been to Truly Tattered make a point in stopping by or better yet, join us for a "one day affair" in August where House of Anne, Round the Coop and Truly Tattered will be hosting a wonderful event featuring 10 Tustin shops, lunch and a Annie Sloan Demo. I will have information for you at the end of this week, but plan to join us.

I want to show you a before and after photo of a headboard Kim chalk painted Duck Egg Blue for the shops debut of beautiful linen bedding.

Headboard BEFORE

AFTER....look at the wonderful bedding and chest of drawers heavily distressed yet elegant

Our Chalk Paint is a miracle of paint products....take a piece of furniture that is
tired and out dated and within a couple hours it has been transformed into a brand new look and piece.


Wow....look at the traditional wooden dining table turned into an elegant Chalk Paint "miracle".
Don't forget to enter the "Chair Faire" contest. It ends on the 15th of July and will be judged on July 30th at the "Gussied Up" Annie Sloan Workshop in Los Alamos.
All you have to do is send me an email or blog comment, take a photo of the chair you are painting BEFORE and purchase one quart of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint through the House of Anne, then of course send me the AFTER photo to be judged. The winner gets one can of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint a month for one year...yes, that means 12 different colors of paint! Wahooooooooo
Hmmmmmmmmmmm.......what color would enhance these chairs?

That's all for now....I am busy checking in inventory and preparing a workshop for  5 new Mini-Stockists that are joining our Southern California team tomorrow.  This should make you happy as their locations will be within a easy mile range for every county in Southern California.

Until tomorrow.....or the next day....get your paint brush out......order some Chalk Paint, check my web site for "specials" and let the paint flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
