Decor Art/Treasure Blue Chalkpaint

HI all, how are you? Has anyone babysat ,more than 2 times this week?LOL
It has been so cold …I read where some of you are at –40 below and I just
can’t imagine being that cold. At –2 degrees I’m shivering!
First I’d like to thank Jamie-So Much Better With Age for featuring my Valentine mantle
at Give Me the Goods linky party. Thanks so much Jamie!
For Christmas I had on my list a gift card for Home Depot so
that I could purchase the Décor Art Americana Chalkpaint.  I ordered
the chalkpaint named, Treasure, I really loved the blue for my washstand
that I was not liking at all in the white I had last painted it.

I waxed the top with clear and the blue with the brown wax.
I really like the blue washstand in the foyer I think it needed it!
I do like the paint, it covered in two coats and went on smooth. The wax is very nice too
but I’m going to order a brush from them because I don’t think I did a good job with
the brown wax and cloth…maybe I’ll try it again.

Hard to take a picture in my entryway because it is either to
light or to dark.

I still have to fiddle around with it but wanted to show you what I’ve
been up to. The black hook laying there I think I’ll use on the wall, have to see about
that though.

My husband was glad for a mirror to be back on the wall. Found the
cute owl at Kohl’s.

I bought the handles at Target.

I had this washstand painted blue a while ago but got the bug to paint it white with
black handles…didn’t like it at all so I went with a different color blue.

That’s about all I’ve been up too lately besides watching kids, thanks for stopping by and
visiting my blog!

Sick and Featured Again


Hello friends! How are you on the last day of January, just think tomorrow we can say “spring will be here next month”!
I started getting sick last Sunday it sure has put a damper on all I’ve wanted to do around here but I did manage to give my dumpster desk the first coat of gray and that’s as far as I’ve got on it! Just not enough energy folks!

Now on to my 2nd feature…
I was featured Wednesday at New House, New Home, New Life for the $3.00 basket I found at a church sale, I painted it with ASCP in Paris Grey!

Thanks so much Heather, it’s really gratifying to be featured when you do these projects, and sometimes they are the simplest and cheapest things to do, like the basket, only took me ten minutes if anything but oh, what an impact it made!
Also, I’ll be visiting all of you who have commented on my last two posts, as soon as I feel better, OK?
I’ll be joining these parties:

Featured!


I was featured at My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia at last weeks Tuesday’s Treasures. I do love the open shelves and French menu a lot, always makes me smile when I walk by. I knew when I saw it that it would fit perfectly! Stop over and see this weeks Tuesday’s Treasures. Thanks so very much Kristen!
