Good grief it's been a whole week already! Finished the chair, the girl child likes it loads--AND the matching "chalkboard" to go with it, which will hang on the wall next to the desk:
The "chalkboard" has the same crackle finish as the desk, and the same colors--the lighting here is a little funky, as there aren't any windows up on the landing where this set now resides, so it looks a little off to me in these pics. The chalkboard is really a picture frame, and the glass has been finished with Americana Gloss Enamels Chalkboard paint--pretty amazing stuff! It's like a really real chalkboard now!
The chair has the same yellow and green which were used on the desk, in the stencils--this photo was taken while the desk was still downstairs, the colors show more accurately here, you may remember this photo:
The paints are all
Americana Chalky Finish paints, along with the Crackle Finish and Satin Varnish AND stencils from the same line--so easy to use, I'm totally hooked. Seriously, I keep looking around for more things to paint, it's getting ridiculous . . . the daughter-in-law wants me to do up a desk for her now, too!
So
What's On YOUR Workdesk this Wednesday? Leave your linky at the marvelous
Miss Julia's, and you're sure to have a few blog neighbors stop by to say hi and see! Happy Woyww, everyone!
