Here is a story of a little table that could.......
The finish is wearing off and it looks very sad...:(......
But wait, a quick coat of great orange spray paint seems to liven it up a little...
Cute enough already right.......:)
NOPE!!! I decided to add an Allium to this table. I have loved them since I was asked to do a painting for a friend of mine. She wanted Alliums, so she got alliums..:)...
Soooooo, I started to sketch in where I wanted the flower to be..
And then I got to painting....(sorry about the messy kitchen...but when I am in the zone...I can't think about cleaning up the kitchen ...:)
(I also obviously couldn't be bothered to change my shirt to not give every one a boob shot....SORRY!!! ) :)and this is how it started out....
and then looked like this.....but it still needed some OOOMPH!!!! :)
So I distressed the table with some of my leftover acrylic paint.......
Isn't she adorable...:)
:)
Now I just have to decide how much to sell her for...That is always, always the hard part....:)
Thanks so much for looking and remember you can follow me on facebook or sign up by email...
as always..
HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!
