Today I want to share with you my favorite peony chalk painted furniture makeovers! Peony is one of my top five favorite paint colors!
I have favorites!
Ok...there...I said it!
I have my favorite chalk paint colors that I enjoy incorporating into my furniture art designs and often forgetting that other colors exist!
Peony is a bold pink that many are often afraid to try....so I thought it might be helpful to share how I use Peony in my art as a feature "leading actress" color...as well as I how I use it alongside other colors as a "supporting actress"!
I've pulled together 20+ of my favorite peony chalk painted furniture makeovers from my blog library to inspire you!
Are you ready? Let's go!

Let's begin with chalk painted furniture pieces that are primarily Peony Pink.
This pair of nightstands was my "falling in love" experience with Peony. It was during this project that Peony made my top five faves! More photos and DIY details are available in the full blog HERE.
While this armoire was created with many colors.....Peony actually pulls through as the strongest color. I do believe most people would describe this as a bold pink piece. Hop on over to the blog HERE for more details and photos.
A bold pink was necessary here in order to both compliment and set the stage for the heavy display of gold leaf! See the full blog HERE for more photos and details.
This "pink" geode table is a great example of how powerful Peony pink is. Even when surrounded by multiple other shades of pink....the bold Peony steals the show. More photos and DIY details are available in the full blog HERE.
This was my VERY first time to use Peony! It was then that I realized how much I enjoyed it paired with black and white! Head over to the blog HERE for more details and photos.
Peony pairs really well with deeper colors too....such as black....for a dramatic finish. Hop on over to the blog HERE for more details and photos.
In the following projects, peony is still very much a star of the piece but also shares the spotlight with other bold colors, patterns, and designs.
This shows how Peony can be used as a focal point.....even though the color is supporting the butterfly focal point! Peony pairs BEAUTIFULLY with Cobalt Blue! See the full blog HERE for more photos and details.
Using a softer shade of pink alongside the drama of Peony...really tames the tone and plays into the softer side of the color. See the full blog HERE for more photos and details.

Now lets view Peony pink as a color that provides support on multi-colored designs. It may not be the star but it plays an important role in the completed look.
Peony pink is used on this ultra funky buffet.....you can find it upper middle trim as well as lower outside legs...acting as a balance to the chaos of colors. Head over to the blog HERE for more details and photos.
