These chairs remind me
that I have been painting for decades!
It used to be "more is more".
I love living with "less is more"!
Such a restful palette and clean paint line.
Here are the colors I used:
For the stripe on the back,
I used a mix of floetrol (paint extender)
and gray.
Basically, floetrol is like a clear glaze
and gives your paints a transparent appearance.
Then I used a straight edge for the fine lines.
I want my blog to be an idea place.
I try to list my paint colors and design ideas
so you can try it too!
This will be a lot faster than painting one of those bunnies!

I'm more drawn to those simple, clean design lines these days too! Beautiful, and thank you for explaining your process and products!
So peaceful! I love the new look!
Wonderful look for the chairs - although the bunnies were awfully cute - I also prefer the cleaner, less cluttered look. You achieved a great finish just using craft paint, I am definitely going to start using my craft paint for more furniture projects.
Thanks Lala,
Craft paints can be budget friendly for some furniture pieces. I'm always looking for bargains : )

Less is definitely more Deb! I especially love the stripe!

Hi Martha -
No, I didn't stencil it. I actually found it at a small furniture store in Kansas.
Have a great day!
Deb
