Projects ASCP and CeCe - Plant Stand, Chalkboard, Coffee Spoon and Letter Holders

Drove over to Langley to visit The Passionate Home and add some ASCP to my paint supplies. Picked Primer Red and Aubusson Blue (yes there is a new 'larger' project in the planning) and I wanted to try the colors on raw wood to see how they would finish.

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.
