Plant holder - unpainted, then ASCP Provence and finally ASCP Aubusson Blue, clear wax with Satin Varithane on the flat surfaces. Replaced the upper shelf.
Green Chalkboard - the color once seen in classrooms everywhere. It needed a bit of punch, picked Vermount Slate CeCe Caldwell, waxed with CeCe Clear Wax. Polished. Added a hook to the back, fresh again.
First try with a new tin of ASCP Primer Red/clear wax on a lightweight vintage (Japan) spoon holder.
Letter Holder #1 - lightweight, vintage Japan letter holder, added some ASCP zing with Primer Red (2 coats) and Clear Wax.
Letter Holder # 2 Sturdy, vintage letter/key holder, tried out my new tin of Aubusson Blue (2 coats) and finished with clear wax. Useful.
A bit of sunshine in the late afternoon (with flowers).
I am rather pleased that my project a week series hasn't faltered (and I am seeing that a few small projects are making a single post). Two more chairs (plus 3 additional larger projects) arrived at the house so now there are 14 chairs in the queue.
Project Series: Making Space, Repair and Paint, Painted Stripes, 1950's Era Primary Chairs, Grain Elevator, Plant Stands, Burlap and Chicken Wire Frame, A Small Collection of Projects, Metal Stool Refurbish Sort of Fail, Small Project: ASCP and a Frame
Thanks for visiting.

Everything looks wonderful, but the green chalkboard brought me back to grade school for just a few seconds.
ReplyDeleteLove the paint colors ... glad you are enjoying your Project Week Series and able to keep up. Maybe I should commit myself to a project week too and get something finished instead of a bunch of 'started-not-finished-projects'.
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring,

Awesome work! I can't wait to start using chalk board paint. Thanks for linking up with Let's Go Thrifting!

Everything turned out wonderful! Great job at all the redos. Thank you for sharing at TTF.
ReplyDeleteLoving them - they look great!
ReplyDeleteI've been combing the bags of mini collectable spoons at the thrift stores lately searching for a Boblo spoon! My mother collected little spoons & I kinda hate them.
You've been busy! Your projects turned out cute in fun colors! :)

You are being very prolific, and creative. I miss the Passionate Home, but am I ever glad that I stocked up on paint before we moved. There doesn't seem to be a dealer around here.

You are the queen of painting and amazing transformations!!!!! :) You never cease to amaze me when I come here! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, lots of great projects that look fantastic. I'm visiting from Mosaic Monday.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you for keeping on your project schedule. This could be a very productive year for you! I'm not a big fan of a lot of the repainted/repurposed stuff I see. So much of it looks cookie cutter or obviously trendy. Yours is some of the few exceptions I have found. I like your color choices and the way you create new classic, functional pieces that will still look good long after the trend has passed on. I also like your eye for detail. I look forward to seeing your project posts.
ReplyDeleteThat's really nice. Everything looks good with a new coat of paint.
ReplyDeleteOh, I think I need some of that red paint. Everything looks great Joy! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
