"Bless me Father for I have sinned and it has been 6 months since my last blog post" ... can NOT believe my last blog post was September 2013. Guess I got caught up in Holidays and snow
and family and life and loss and gain. Also fell
into the trap of … it’s so much quicker to just drop a blurb on fb … I’ve missed it here … missed all of you …
missed visiting your places and sharing your experiences. I’m back and will make the time. I didn’t stop painting … paint is still one
of my favorite things! Missing Paint Party Friday too ... Happy 3rd Birthday-Anniversary-Blogoversary to PPF!
I’ve been playing with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint mostly and
here are a few of my finished pieces (18 ASCP projects so far …)

welcome back, you have been productive! Nice pieces.
ReplyDeleteAMAZING! wonderful pieces!
ReplyDeleteWell I'm glad it's not just me whose been missing in action for the last few months-I've not been to the party since before Christmas! ! I love that chalk paint-those things you've repainted are fantastic-i especially love the ones with the letting -is it a type of stencil? Such a great collection of shabby chic furniture and bits and bobs that would look awesome in my cottage! ! Do you sell these or are they all for your home? I imagine things like that would alk well on etsy. X
ReplyDeleteGood to see you back and with all those fab pieces. Happy PPF, Annette x
