    I have a very nice 1930’s dining set that I want to paint. I cannot wait to read all your advice here so I can get going!. I have the linen fabric to recover the seats of chairs and for my roman shades. My problem is, I am so bad at picking colors. My linen is royal blue. My walls are papered with tiny flowers and there are windows on two sides of the room; wall to wall. Any help with color? You have the eye. Any advice is lovingly appreciated. I love all your pieces!

    I love looking at all the beautiful furniture you have painted. I have been using chalk paint, on my own pieces and some I have done for other people. I am eager to try milk paint, have seen Miss Mustards pretty colors but haven’t found them in my area yet. Have used the Zibra paint brushes and like them very much.
