just finished waxing it so the handles wills have to wait until tomorrow - and pls excuse that pitiful staging photo - talk about desperately just grabbing the first things on hand lol - which is exactly what I did - come on Owl, you'll do ( not - looks lost the poor thing )
this piece makes me smile - doesn't it look cheerful? I think it looks like Spring personified and makes me wish I had a summer cottage, badly.
Oh the furniture I could redo for a little place by the lake........................
Paint colors are Country Grey, Paloma, Duck Egg Blue and White ( pure white - not the old white )
No sanding - no distressing - just frog tape and paint
Oh almost forgot the before photo!!!
Have a good one all

This was just before I started blogging, so I missed this one. I have to agree with you, there are a lot better pieces you have done that the H.P. could have picked. But it still looks pretty neat and a good way to use up all the bits of paint you have left.
