Today's project was taking an old worn out planter that belonged in the dump and transforming it into a glamorous new planter. This is what I started with. It was old and crusty.
Nobody would want this old thing in their house or on their patio.
With some ASP Old Violet and some gilding wax I actually think this looks somewhat glamorous.
For those DIY'ers out there. This is a great blog from Robyn Story Designs and Boutique about Artisian Enhancements products. It is worth reading. I am putting my order in for Pearl Plaster tonight. Can hardly wait to try it out.
I was the winning bidder for this awesome tri-fold mirror at an auction last year. I am guessing this is from the the 20's or 30's but I am not sure. I am ready to revitalize this mirror. I like it the way it is but some of the wood is beat up. So I am thinking about painting. Maybe a soft white. What do you think?
Yes I am so proud to be from a town that has chosen to move forward with love instead of letting a tragedy define them. I'd like to share a few valentines this week and urge you to check out the Sandy Hook Promise. Feel free to chose your own valentine to share. http://1millionhearts.sandyhookpromise.org.
