I am in the process of repainting my French Provencial furniture, which has a shimmering finish. I want to give it the same effect but I don’t know where to purchase the paint nor the wherewithal to do so. I have a great handyman who is assisting me. Please help me with any information that you may have.

God bless!!!!!

I spray painted a half moon hall table in a beautiful metallic silver and put two different sizes of tiny mirrors [approx. 1" and 3/4" in width] spaced around the rim and onto the squared parts, of the three turned legs. IT LOOKS AWSOME! If I do say so myself.
Everyone who has seen it thinks it was a great way to update a boring wee table.
Go for the shine!
