I really haven't seen many "Arles" paint jobs in the chalk paint world. Is this buttery orange-yellow just too much? Is it hard to work with? Is it best left for the small pieces? I dunno....but it sure makes a difference on this old dresser.
It's a Santa Fe meets Cottage Yellow color....hard to describe. But it IS beautiful.....at least I think so.

Not too distressed this time. Keepin' her classic.
Arles fan! I know just what I want to do with it next....

I think it looks great! I never thought about it, but you're right, I haven't seen much of this color around. It was a good choice.
Looks GREAT to me! Love that you kept it classic:)
Beautiful, it looks so rich and warm! I'm definitely ordering Arles with my next chalk paint order. Deb
Definately a show stopper! Someone that is confident in their decorating style will love this, I wish I had room for her!
It definitely is cheery :) Well done!
Arles you kidding me??? Sorry bad joke. It looks ah-mah-zing! Flo, I'm pretty sure you could paint with white-out and make things look great :)
I just painted a board for a sign with Arles tonight. First time trying it. It's so nice to see it on a large piece and boy do I agree...it's fabulous! Great job!!!
Beautiful! Arles is such a great color, glad to see more of it. Great job!
