Easy upcycle: DIY clay-effect paint to turn junk into trendy decor pieces

Have you seen the DIY chalk paint craze, where people refinish tacky thrift shop items and make them look all contemporary and textured? I love the idea…but I wanted to do it in a way that didn’t require buying anything (even secondhand) to spruce up my decor collection. So I tested this DIY on some more unusual items I already had at home. And while it didn’t work for everything, I was pretty stoked at how nice-looking (and easy!) this one turned out.
