Small Projects Caught Up

My friend Judy came to visit and we painted up a storm. 

Frames, little table top cabinet, boards, small table/stool, faux ladder, ornamental little fence piece, wooden faux ship wheels. 

Judy painted the 1st layer on everything then had to head home to WL (almost a 7 hour drive).

I finished the 2nd coat and touch-ups, (colors used: CeCe Caldwell Simply White and CeCe Caldwell Santa Fe Turquoise), all projects clear waxed and buffed. 

 Faux Ship Wheel Stencilled

Added some of my favorite words to the faux ship wheel wall decoration. The before was an unpainted craft faux ship wheel.

Little  White and Turquoise 2 door cabinet

The 'before' was a natural finish with hand painted flowers on the doors. Stenciled two small fleur de lis in turquoise to the two little doors. Touched up the turquoise inside and the white outside until it was 'done'. Clear waxed and buffed.

Added a few small collectibles, love the little metal sheep, very vintage. The Royal Winton chintz pieces are from a tea set.

White Fence Background Piece

Welcome Friends

This stenciled fence piece is in its second re-do. Green wasn't working so now it could be used as a front porch decoration, perhaps mixed in with seasonal plants.

 

Unpainted small table/stool

A little homemade four legged wooden table found at a garage sale last fall had about 1/4" tilt on one leg so it has been in a pile of things that needed some help. It had a dark stain finish. Judy gave it one coat of turquoise and  DH used a piece of a door framing small wedge (what a perfectly great idea) that matched the slope, cut out the small piece with a flat saw plus a chisel and that was the fix for the tilt. Glued, clamped and then nailed. 

I gave it a second coat of CeCe Caldwell Santa Fe Turquoise - and stenciled Welcome to my GARDEN (stencil from Donna of Funky Junk Interiors), 2 coats of clear wax/polished. It went to my booth on Monday.

Thanks for visiting.
