A Change of Face

I have had this chest of draws knocking around my home for the last at least 8 years but I have never been happy with them. They started off being plain wood which I dont like so I decided to paint them but the colour was just not right either. So for over a year or more they have been moved from room to room until we could find the time to once again make them over. So with this being the holidays for getting things finished and fixed up we picked up the supplies.

Here is the little man sanding away.

I think that this time we might have got it right.

We are going to be painting it in a colour called Preschool Half. Which gave us both a chuckle considering what I'm studying at the moment. We are also going to change the draw pulls to these beautiful brushed silver mushroom ones.

I will post pics once the chest of draws has been painted.

What I'm up to..........

With my first sale this year, I realised that I am down to only 2 headbands. Oh no, dont know how that happened. So I am making some more with some new and wonderful designs.

I have also been trying to get myself back into drawing and painting. At the moment I have been working on this little guy, he still needs some colour but this will have to wait until the weekend when I can paint for the whole day. I really love working with inks so I cant wait.

When this little guy is finished he is going to look really cute on notebooks.


I'm going out on Thursday to gather more supplies, so I plan on having a very inspired weekend.
