PAINTED FURNITURE...

I bought this desk a couple of months ago from a local second hand shop as I thought it was really cute...It's quite wee and dinky.
 

 
I finally got round to finishing it last week and I am so pleased with how it turned out.

 
I painted it with Annie Sloan Duck Egg chalk paint and then distressed it slightly.

 
It was given a coat of clear wax to finish.


It looks great in my dining area...

A LITTLE BIT OF ART JOURNALING...JOURNAL SOUP STYLE...

So last week I decided that I really, really, really wanted a Dylusions Creative Journal so I went on eBay and I bought this one...
 
 
I also decided that I had best get on with the Journal Soup 1 class created by Kate Crane at The Kathryn Wheel before I purchased Journal Soup 2....

 
This is what I produced from part one...part two is currently underway...very pleased with what I've done so far and can't wait to finishe the second page and get on with the rest of the lessons...Kate is such a fabulous teacher and I have been lucky enough to do a class with her along with Sonja. We are also booked in to do another with her at the beginning of next year...can't wait!!
