Hey everyone, it’s Regina from Saved From Salvage here!  Let’s learn how to update your plant station with Chalk Mineral Paint. This is such a fun project to boost more of  you into your potting area.

How To Personalize Your Potting Station:

Step 1: First prepare your plant station for Chalk Mineral Paint

I took apart the old and worn-out china cabinet and did some necessary reinforcements; due to its condition, I am only using the top half. The weathered piece was perfect to update as a plant station because of the condition. Chalk Mineral Paint will disguise imperfections with little effort!

Step 2: Prep your piece before applying Chalk Mineral Paint by cleaning it with White Lightning

Secondly, I cleaned the entire piece using Dixie Belles White Lightning. This is REALLY important as your piece may sit outside or get wet and dirt on it – you want to start with a clean slate.

Step 3: Decide where you would like to put your Belles and Whistles Transfer

I chose the Wildflowers and Butterflies transfer for the glass on this cabinet. I made sure to place it exactly where I wanted it to go then I peeled back the plastic backing, and it went on perfectly.

Step 4: Get ready to paint with Chalk Mineral Paint

Finally, I wanted to keep the tattered look on the outside but painted the inside using two coats of Vintage Duck Egg Chalk Mineral Paint.

Dixie Belle Chalk Mineral Paint is suitable for chalk painting on wood, metal, matte plastics, brick, stone, glass, concrete and so much more. Be sure to seal your project too for durablity!

Dixie Belle Paint can be mixed and matched to create any custom color you can imagine! Go To Our Color Lab to make your own custom color!
