Finished projects...

 Thought I would share the finished projects from the weekend:

How I paint:  1.  Forget I'm wearing my favorite skinny jeans.  2.  Drip paint on my jeans.  3.  Cuss.  4.  Bump my t-shirt shoulder into wet paint.  5.  Cuss.  6.  See a bug in the wet paint.  7.  Try to blow on him to get him out of it.  8.  Cuss.  9.  Paint over the body to hide the evidence.  10.  See a drop of paint on my waterproof duck shoes.  11.  Express gratitude that I was at least smart enough to change out of the Filas.  12.  See another drip on my jeans.  13.  Cuss.  14.  Decide I deserve a pizza.

The light in the bathroom makes the chest of drawers look more orange than it really is.  The color (above) is more like a deep rose.  The blue console table may have to find another home in the house.  There is a chair I bought just for the room, and it's too crowded now where I moved it to across from the shower (it originally was in this corner under the window).  

I also had just enough paper to do the vanity front, which was a good thing because I really didn't want to order another roll.  If I hadn't had enough paper, I would probably have painted them instead.

And ... I have to have little things that make me smile unexpectedly.  Like these stickers I got from Temu that I put on the bathroom sink outlet.

Charlie claimed the railway car for his own as soon as I got my spray-painting box off it.  It gives him a better view of his kingdom.

When I dropped him off at his bestie's house yesterday, I got to see the bead suncatcher I made for Brenda hanging.  They painted the frame white, and it looks amazing!

And ... this is yesterday's abstract mixed-media pet portrait of the girls, Lucy (L) and Gracie (R).  I went to Goodwill and picked up some thrift bling and added some flower beads that I already had.

Wishing you a wonderful week of creativity and new things!  Hugs, Ci💚

  1. I had to laugh at your painting how-to. Or how-not-to. Enjoy your beautiful world!
