Kate, you are the winner of the Jolie Essentials Paint Kit. Please email me at christina@prettydistressed.com with your color selection and address. Congrats!
Wow, what a beauty !! Ty for sharing back story on piano, I literally started crying with the little part of song created by Alex, what a beautiful moving song. Ty!!
Love Love!! Super excited to try Jolie Paints on my next project. (It will be my second project ever haha!!) I love your videos and recommend them to everyone I talk to about furniture painting! Can’t wait until your next video!
I primarily work with large pieces of wood (slabs) for tables and mantels. Most of my experience has been using Danish oils to get the color of the wood as I want and have used General Finish products since I first started. However, just started doing some pieces with natural wood tops and painted bottoms. I learned many years ago when I first started old wood golf clubs as a hobby that finish is the most important element. And, to get the right finish when you are not spraying, the brush(s) can make all the difference. For new people, don't buy junk brushes. Spend a little more and buy good ones and take care of them. If you do they will last through many projects. Enjoyed the piano process. I'm new to chalk, but getting to learn the nuances (with your help). Just mixed my own Jolie color using two quarts of slate and blue to get the blue I wanted.
I've been watching your videos for a few months and I love so many of your projects. Now I'm moving from a home where most of the furniture is black to a home where it's so light and airy that black won't do, and I plan to paint SO MUCH of my furniture. However, there's this pandemic going on and the stores have no chalk paint or even basic supplies. Thanks for the demonstrating the beauty that Jolie paints and wax are capable of!
That is so wild that the color goes on navy blue, but dries down to such a beautiful, inky black. Every time I watch one of your videos I start looking around my house for things to paint!
I love the Jolie Noir color. I have never used Jolie paint or products before but I love watching your videos and seeing you use it to completely transform a piece. I also really love how the black wax looked on top. Beautiful!
BEAUTIFUL! Thank you for always eplaining through all your steps. I have been wanting to paint a piano that was given to me for the longest time. I think you have now given me the courage to get it done 💪Now I need to decide on a color🙂
Thank you so much Christina for this video! I've never painted furniture before in my life! But we were gifted a "well loved" used piano that needed some TLC. I followed your instructions and our piano turned out beautifully as well! Thank you so much!
My Mom has an old piano she's been wanting me to paint for years. Watching this video makes me think I can really do it with a pro paint like Jolie Home. You make it look so easy. Beautiful job Christina!
Thanks for the little "contents" summary with time links!! I'm loving your Jolie paint videos, and what a lovely story about the couple and how you came paint this piano!!
I agree with you Christina about using the black wax on black paint, this piano turned out gorgeous 😍 it makes my heart skip beats it’s so beautiful.. great job as always.
I've been watching several of your videos to learn how to use paints like Jolie. I've never painted or stained furniture, and it's nerve wracking, for sure. Your videos have been so informative, and I love how you show close ups of your techniques.
This piano turned out awesome! What a complete transformation. It's amazing what great paint can do. WOW. Makes me want to try Jolie Paints for myself. Keep the great videos coming Christina!
I am just getting started refinishing furniture. I have a small little nightstand that I plan to do as my first piece. I am loving the noir color and the matte finish. The piano looks amazing in its new space.
Ohhh my goodness 💖❣️❣️ That looks like a totally different piano & one they will use & have great family fun on🤭❣️ I haven't tried their paint, but have 10 pieces of my own I need to redo, but it's all so expensive to just get started with it all😛❣️❣️ But I am so excited to Finally after 15 yrs of holding onto these pieces, to get started 💓💖❣️ And have followed you as my fun go to girl to learn the best way to use all the "new products"🤔❣️ Sincerely Lori K 💕
Thanks to your instructive videos, Christina, I JUST finished painting my late parent's massive king sized bed in Jolie Graphite! It was my first piece of furniture to paint, but not my last. In fact, I've already painted an etagere in Annie Sloan Duck Egg Blue (again, thanks to your recommendation in a video), but I still need to wax it with dark wax. I am loving how paint can transform an older "outdated" piece of furniture into something new and fresh, giving it a second life. Thanks for sharing your gifts with us. You're a blessing!
Looks amazing! I'm just starting with chalk painting and furniture makeovers. Trying to figure out the best and most cost effective paints, dealers and waxes to use. Love this!!
You have inspired me to try out the wonderful world of chalk painting furniture. I am working on my first piece. I got it on FB marketplace and unfortunately the people I got it from smoked up a storm, and the nightstand smells like cigarette smoke. I tried everything to get rid of the smell without success, so eventually I decided to sand it down 100%. It took 6 hours this past weekend. In the garage and the heat index was 103 🥴. But I am ready to shellac it this weekend and then chalk the weekend after. I’m so excited!
I hate to admit it but I was a little bit sceptical when I saw the headline about a piano. So many people here are giving away pianos for free. But your transformation on this piano is amazing. You can tell how much this family loves your work. Very beautiful!
Immediately stopped and looked up “California” means more when you’ve lost a baby too. As for the piano, it looks great! I’ve been trying to convince the wife we need to revive her old upright! Here’s hoping! Great job!
My mom had a piano like that. I wished I would have kept it, seeing what you done. Love it. I am just starting to refinish some pieces and have watched your videos and learned so much. Thank you
Omg I’m impressed!! I always wanted to see a black matt finish. The other day I saw a piano 🎹 for free in Facebook market , but I couldn’t take it 😭. I’m renting an storage and it’s full of furniture, my entire house is full of pieces . I’m new at this and I’ve been watching all your videos ! Thank you for your life you are an inspiration to me . That story is great ! That’s the grace of God in your life 😃😃
Completed all the steps to enter the contest 😍 the piano looks great! My six year old said with a sigh and head shake, “You’re going to paint our piano now aren’t you?” I just got into chalk painting and I’m painting all the things!
Lovely work as always! I have never painted anything, but I am watching you diligently to make sure I get my first chalk painting right. I am drawn to starting with Jollie because of the pieces I have seen you paint. Kudos!
I've never painted a piece of furniture, much less a piano....but this is beautiful! I absolutely love the color and finish. Now I want to paint something!!! ❤
My boyfriend and I will eventually be buying an upright piano (most likely second hand) so this is an awesome video to get some information on what to do!!
I’ve really been wanting to try Jolie. They have such unique colors. I love their blue/greens. This solid black look is beautiful. Some gold gilding wax would be really cool with a matte black look like this also!
Looks beautiful as always! You are a very talented artist. Your videos have inspired me to improve my furniture painting skills. I’m excited to start a new project!
I’m not creative but I love to get inspiration from others. I have a deep desire to accomplish the beauty you have created. I plan on taking every piece of your advice while embarking on this new hobby. I really want to be good at this!
I just love your work and Jolie products. It would be amazing to win such an amazing giveaway 🥰😍 keep up the great work and thanks for being so inspiring 😘
This is beautifully done! I’m new to the furniture flipping world and I love watching all of your IG stories. Thanks so much for pouring your positive energy into us on a daily basis and sharing amazing tips and tricks!!
Impressed! It’s your videos like this that inspire me to tackle my triple dresser. There is hope at the end of the tunnel! And the light I can see is you holding a beacon signaling I’m going towards in right direction. 🤗
Thank you for tackling this Christina, it came out BEAUTIFUL! I also have a piano that was given to my family by a neighbor and it is in serious need of new life being breathed into, but I have been so afraid to paint it and possibly ruin it. You've given me the courage to go ahead and jump right in ❤😍. Now to just choose a color 😉.
I’m new to the painting furniture game but love your content :)

Wow, what a beauty !! Ty for sharing back story on piano, I literally started crying with the little part of song created by Alex, what a beautiful moving song. Ty!!

A flat black piano wouldn't be for everyone, but it was perfect for their house. Great job!
The video tribute was beautiful as well.
Love Love!! Super excited to try Jolie Paints on my next project. (It will be my second project ever haha!!) I love your videos and recommend them to everyone I talk to about furniture painting! Can’t wait until your next video!

I love how this turned out! Just bought a can of the Jolie Black wax and I am loving it!!!!!
Love Black Wax!

Gorgeous! I love the black on black matte look. I was looking at my old piano yesterday thinking "can I paint this?". And voila! Your video today!
My Mom has an old piano she's been wanting me to paint for years. Watching this video makes me think I can really do it with a pro paint like Jolie Home. You make it look so easy. Beautiful job Christina!
You can do it!
Nice! I would be so scared to paint a piano. But I have a few pieces of furniture I'd love to try this color on.
Thanks for the little "contents" summary with time links!! I'm loving your Jolie paint videos, and what a lovely story about the couple and how you came paint this piano!!

I have dreamed of painting my piano for a while now, I cant wait to do it!!!!!
Immediately stopped and looked up “California” means more when you’ve lost a baby too.
As for the piano, it looks great! I’ve been trying to convince the wife we need to revive her old upright! Here’s hoping! Great job!
Awesome! Thank you!
My mom had a piano like that. I wished I would have kept it, seeing what you done. Love it. I am just starting to refinish some pieces and have watched your videos and learned so much. Thank you

I am in LOVE with the matte finish. I never thought of painting using chalk paint on a piano!

I’ve been LOVING Jolie’s Noir ever since I saw your comparison of all the chalk paints and finishes. I can’t wait to find a piece to do in it.
Have fun!
