I arrived at the shop early today to get a few pieces finished for the shop. I love that when I pull up to my workshop I can see a field and an old farm house. Sometimes I will grab breakfast on the way and sit in my car eating and just enjoying this view.
After breakfast was over, and I had to get out of the car so I didn't look like a house stalker, I got to work.
This piece has about four coats of chalk paint on it, then I waxed it with dark wax, then distressed, buffed....along with sanding and staining the top. It's an old bar cart and I think it is chippy and sweet.
I used the aqua paint to do this coffee table and a matching end table. Some slight distressing and clear wax finished it off.
I'm off to enjoy some family time and relax. Have a lovely Memorial Day weekend!

Such a beautiful picture of the hidden home. Are you on Instagram?
ReplyDeleteYes! Love playing with that app!
DeleteI wish my husband liked turquoise. I'd love to have some in my house but I like our reds.
