~ Favorite Friday Find ~


I told you, it's wonderful, primitive cabinet ...about 3 coats of old paint...grey, turquoise and that most wonderful green!

It has a shelf with the top longer on the right side. It makes me wonder who built it and what purpose it served? I'm sure it could tell some good stories and secrets too!


Some close ups of the paint colors...

It would be hard to replicate that paint color!

It even has lots of storage too! I think it would make a great potting table, kitchen island or storage piece. What would you use it for?

Happy Friday!

Painting Party and Chalk Paint!


4 friends, lots of project pieces, a new paint, lots of girl talk = one fun day!
We had to have a picture of Flo and Glo!

Here's the crew, they all blog! Brandi, read about her here, Rhonda, who sells here and Flo's who shows her paint perfections here! Check them out!

Now for the before's.... this is Flo's project (she bought it at this great barn sale in Gresham) :)


Here's mine....dust and all!
This one's Brandi's....
Here's Rhonda's cute table...


Now about the paint! Flo has been using Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint for awhile and painting some fabulous pieces, and so I really was wanting to see it in action. If you read blogs, you have heard about it and all the pros and cons...I have to say, I'm impressed and ready to order it!
Here's mine done! What do you think? I love her...and the pumpkin who is waving at you in the mirror!
Here's Flo's done - I told you...it turned out wonderful! Contact her to purchase...she has matching dresser also!
One more shot of mine...unfortunately, the others left before I thought to get the after pics! But their projects turned out great too! Thanks ladies for all the inspirations, sweat and laughs!
Here's to doing it again soon!
