I’m a bit short on time b/c we’re headed to another tball game tonight, but here are a few pics from the last couple of weeks–mainly projects i’m working on. Here’s our breakfast area before the paint and curtains. the grey was pretty dark and it needed more light in there! We painted it bakery box white. 😉 And...

His sweet-as-molasses girlfriend Lindsay helped me paint it and I was eternally grateful. Don’t you just love it? Cuz I sure do. The Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. Is from the UK. I first read about it on the Miss Mustard Seed.

8230;because everyday is a new adventure. Here’s the finished project. I’m a little disappointed in the photos, but it is what it is. :) I absolutely adore this piece! Inspired by Miss Mustard Seed.

And the beadboard on the back of the upper part. Hutch…before. →. May 10, 2011 at 7:34 pm. I might be painting ...
