Oh yes, the chalk paint trend is still going strong here in fly over country. Guess it is part of the still popular shabby choc look whoch has been going of for, what, 20 plus years mow? Reminds me of my parents trend in the 70s where everything was painted a kind of pinky red color or a dusty blue color and then “antiqued” with streaky beown stuff.
oh ugh.
Because there’s tons of brown furniture, I don’t mind the trend and especially it seems to be furniture made in the 30s that gets this treatment and I am less fond of 30s and 40s furniture. When they do it to a Victorian piece it makes me wince, but I know there are lots of Victorian pieces out there so it is not a great loss.
