Darn...well at least the dresser has real wood

I've done a couple projects with AS Chalk Paint. Yes, of course a bit spendy, sorta like cycling!!!! I was able to buy a couple of the real small jars of paint. The wax was also spendy, but will last a life time.

I don't recall any smells at all. It was really easy and I was really impressed with the results. I chose two colors. It was fun when I started rubbing the second layer of paint off to expose the first color. It was an old piece of stained and shellacked furniture. The paint really doesn't need any prep at all! It was really kinda hard to mess up!!!

I think its a good way to go with old furniture, that you can't make any worse anyway!!! Both pieces are back in living areas, they were both previously stashed away! Give it a try. Have fun.
