It’s become difficult to get your hands on an old drawer set from a thrift store on Main St. without tearing it from the hands of some other would-be Jillian Harris. If you do manage to find some sort of wooden item that could use a little love—or maybe you know an old person who’s house is fully stocked with cool retro items just waiting to be painted—then this prize package from Fat Paint is just for you. Celebrating the new colour range from designer Amanda Forrest, this package consists of three different colours of chalk paint, and one beeswax polish for a smooth finish.Fat Paint By Numbers1.
