Lol, you are so funny. I love it!! You made me a subscriber. I was having a not so great day until this video made me chuckle more than a few times. Thank you, beautiful. God bless you ❤️

I love how you & your Significant Other picked your favorite sides of the couch & enjoy it's uniqueness

I LOVED your video and being an artist myself you know there will be mistakes. It came out perfect. I’m definitely painting my leather sectional.

I’m about to paint my couch white and use your video to help me do this;will give you an update! Thanks for sharing you did a great job and answered most of my questions.

“Well... it wasn’t the hugest deal...but it definitely wasn’t the right decision.” Literally the title of my biography.

Omg I love love love your personality... This is an amazing video... 😍😍

Haha! I think I love you! I think I am you! I’m about to paint my half pleather half sued couch that I couldn’t give away on Facebook market! My cat barfed on it a few times and scratched all the pleather to hell and back! It’s a HUGE sectional! Am I insane? Probably. But you are so right. There is something special about making an old gross thing beautiful by using your creative abilities, sweat and tears. Thanks for the inspiration!

This is amazing!! We have an old brown leather couch and I'm thinking about doing this!! did the white chalk paint cover well the first time or did you feel like you had to go over it again?xxx

Hi Molly!! I’m glad you like it and so excited to see you want to try it out yourself! So, I did just post an update video to show some cracking that occurred, which if I get the chance I will go over again. Other than that though, by using a ton of thin layers of chalk paint, I got really great coverage. My advice would just be to make sure you’re going to have enough chalk paint for the whole couch lol

Thanks for a great video great entertainment 👍😀

@EclecticUnicornCo

Hi Craig! Thanks so much for checking it out! (: I don't have any experience with this, but I looked into it and it seems like, depending on the tearing, you could try to repair it and then paint over the repair. Or if it's peeling, you may be able to sand it down a bit to where it's smooth, and then paint over that. Hopefully that helps! Would love to hear how it goes! (:

Thank so much!! Oh wow, have you considered making your own chalk paint?? I'm sure there are some recipes online you can find using regular paint and some other ingredients (:

@MeMe-zh8pw

Naima ASA, Be certain to research first. One of the ingredients commonly used ( not sure, but think it was calcium bicarbonate), turns out to be toxic when mixed into paint. Turns out that pure talc is best for best coverage. There is a gal who made a video about it here on KZread. Sorry, forgot her name. Best of luck. Hope it turns out great for you!

I sincerely appreciate the explaination of mistakes/issues, that is priceless for a first timer. As well as, answering most questions for a new DIYer. One more inquiry, how much chalk paint did you use? I have 4 pieces to complete and am attempting to guess how much chalk paint to purchase. Thank you again!

Hi! Thank you so much, I'm just happy to help! (: It's been some time since I did this project, so I'm not too sure how much I used exactly, but it was no more than one quart of paint. Especially considering I watered down my paint before I started, you should be safe starting out with a quart.

Hi Heather! Thanks for checking out the video! (: To answer both of your questions, no it does not come off on clothes and no it does not come off when wet. The decorative wax that goes over the chalk paint is what keeps those things from happening. I linked the wax that I used in the description, but there are tons of different brands you could use.
