Happy Monday Friends! And Happy 2016! Last night our team gathered together to celebrate and reflect on what an amazing year 2015 was. We look forward to another year of personal and team growth, packed with "Ladies on the Loose" events, another anniversary celebration and two Junk Bonanzas. Bring it 2016! Let's dive into the topics at hand: i.e. the EASIEST furniture antiquing method EVER and a free paint just for YOU!
If you've been to Ramshackled Treasures or are familiar with our brand you've probably seen lots of distressed and antiqued items. Antiqued furniture has been in vogue for years and it's not going out of style anytime soon. There are many ways to antique furniture: sandpaper, wet sanding, dry brushing and tinted wax but today we are going to talk about Country Chic Glaze.
Glaze. Even the word itself sounds nummy & edible like that melty frosting on a donut. Yum.
But what is glaze? And how do you use it? Overview: *Glaze is meant to give any piece an antique look. *When applied to a piece that is ornate or has a lot of texture it soaks into all the crevices and brings out the detail of the piece. * It changes the color of the overall piece and give it an aged patina look. * It is pretty much odorless * Safe to paint indoors. *It's fast to apply, just paint on and wipe away! Sounds like a win, win.
You will need a... Brush Cup of water Lint free cloth Glaze color of your choice

Did you get all that? See, it's extremely easy. Country Chic glazes come in three different colors, but you can mix your own custom color if you buy the clear glaze and mix it 4 parts glaze to 1 part paint. We are a retailer for Country Chic products and sell all the glaze colors. If you have any questions feel free to drop in or call us at Ramshackled Treasures or leave a comment below. ***For those who are interested in tackling your own painting projects, we offer a Painting 101 classes and a Cabinet Painting classes.
