Let me just start out this post by telling you that my "project pile" has never been so big.
In a perfect world, I could go junkin and everything I find would be in the perfect condition I would want and I wouldn't have to do A THING to it!
That is sooooooo not the case.
I even tell myself..."Okay self...stick to stuff that you can just put in the shop or a booth and the only thing you need to do to it , is put a price tag on it!"
That hardly ever happens.
It seems.
My creative side of my brains engulfs the entire rest of my brain telling it things like:
"oh...you could do this......
and then it would turn out like this......
or you could do this........!!!!"
Curses!
Ha...so obviously I am just going to have embrace the fact that I will forever have a
"project pile."
March came in with great mild weather and I starting diggin out the goods.
First up is this absolutely adorable vintage telephone stand..... "WHO are YOU wearing?"...she was asked at the Oscars......
Love, love, love! I bought a can of Annie Sloan Paint and I had no luck. Or maybe it is my lack of talent. It clumped and did not go on smoothly, showing the brush marks. What did I do wrong? Please advise!
ReplyDeleteLove how everything turned out.
ReplyDeleteI have a "project pile", too, so I guess I will get busy.
Thanks for the inspiration,
Cheryl
I love the telephone stand. I am with you, my list is very long, I have a retired Husband that repurposes my casts off, but if I had my way he would be working 8 hours a day to keep up with my ideas...........have a great day. Hugs Mary
ReplyDeleteBoth pieces look great, but I'm IN LOVE with the "kitchen island." Wish my kitchen were big enough to fit it!
ReplyDeleteI too have a "project pile" that keeps on growing!
ReplyDeleteLoving Annie Sloan and I have a piece waiting for her but I will not allow myself to start another without finishing the first.
Really enjoying your blog...keep up the good work!
