Win an Annie Sloan prize pack to makeover a piece of furniture

Now I know I’m not the only one that constantly collects (or perhaps the better word is hoards) secondhand pieces of furniture. I buy them with these grand plans; think metallic spray paint, matt door handles and hey if I’m feeling crazy, a little sawing! But nine times out of ten, they stay in a corner of the garage collecting dust.

Well not anymore. For anyone like me (who lacks the willpower, time or funds), now is your chance to change! We are giving away three Annie Sloan prize packs valued at over $200 each. Containing one litre of Chalk Paint (you can choose from 32 hues), 500ml of Soft Wax, one small pure bristle brush and one small wax brush, it is the perfect kit to help you transform an existing piece of tired furniture.

What’s even better is the pack contains products that are super easy to use. The Chalk Paint by Annie Sloan, which I have used myself and can attest is challenge-free, offers a velvety matt finish and can be applied to almost any surface without any priming or sanding. Hallelujah! Bang on trend, you can use it pretty much anywhere: on walls, floors, wood, concrete, metal, matt plastic, earthenware, brick and stone — inside or out. You can even use it to paint upholstery and dye fabric!

Drying fast, so you can add a second coat quickly, it can be thinned with water and used as a wash or used as an impasto (thickly) by leaving the lid off overnight. Once done, you can also add Annie Sloan Soft Wax for a subtle sheen, protection and durability.

Stylish design of new Voyager candle brand

You can never have too many cushions or candles in my book. And just when I thought I’d seen it all when it came to candles, this lovely one arrived in the mail from Voyager last week.

Isn’t the double-walled design great? Very simple and elegant. And can you see the name of the scent through the glass on the bottom?
