I do love a rainy day … the first one anyway. I may not be quite so content should it rain all week! But for today, the rain gives me the perfect excuse to stay home and piddle away at a few little projects I’ve had on the back burner and/or in the works. Some for months!! If I could ask for anything, I think it would be time. There always seems to be a shortage. Tick-tock. Drip drop.
This particular project is pretty much a dumpster dive. The temptation to toss it on the trash pile was strong but I had a jar of blue paint I wanted to test, so here we go. I’m using Country Chic paint. It’s a thick paint and I’m still on the fence as to where it rates with other chalk paints I’ve used. Long time fan of Fusion and I don’t think this one applies as smoothly though there is minimal difference in the final finish.
I think this ‘plant stand’ was a DIY from the get go. The posts that hold it all together appear to be some sort of plastic molding with washers drilled into the bottom.
Also working on a second piece – an end table. I’ll post pics of both when they’re finished. Both are twice-loved.
