Hello Chalk Paint...I Think I LOVE You!!! Stereo Cabinet Redo

I scored this old stereo cabinet off of craigslist...FREE section!!!  Cha CHING!!!!

I took out the 8 track and record player, and then took out speakers. 

I also pulled off the ugly nylon rope fabric covering the speakers. 

My lovely husband cut a board for the top where the schtuff was,

and two small boards to go over the holes where the speakers once were.

I painted the entire cabinet with Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint. 

This stuff is miracle paint. 

I did not sand, prime, just PAINTED IT. 

I used the color "provence".  

I hot glued the fabric onto the boards and then put back the panels. 

I then rubbed on Annie Sloan's soft wax in Rustic all over the piece. 

I then put everything back together.

   I covered the speaker holes with this beautiful fabric from JoAnn's. 

I wanted to add an unexpected pop of color.

I honestly can't say enough good things about this paint. 

 It ROCKS!!  I love how this piece turned out.

Even my husband didn't see the potential.
