Trying MMS milk paint on a Stormy Day Dresser

UPDATE Pics showing the wreath I just made. Love the colors w/the dresser...

If you've seen my other posts, you know I've done quite a few pieces with the milk paint from the Real Milk Paint Company. I love their colors and their paint.

But I'm always on the lookout to try different things. I found this nice old dresser

off of CL (yeah I know, surprise!) and wanted to do a lighter color.

First I applied some Real Milk Paint co in "Peacock". Then I used MMS "Shutter Gray" to layer

over the top.

Since this was bare wood, the paint really adheres. On places where

ST PATTIES DAY green inspiration pictorial

St. Patrick’s Day is observed on March 17

because that is the feast day of St. Patrick,

the patron saint of Ireland. It is believed that he

died on March 17 in the year 461 AD.

In Ireland on St. Patrick’s Day,

people traditionally wear a small bunch of

shamrocks on their jackets or caps. Children wear

orange, white and green badges, and women and

girls wear green ribbons in their hair.

A leprechaun is a type of fairy in Irish folklore,

usually taking the form of an old man, clad in a red

or green coat, who enjoys partaking in mischief.

The Leprechauns spend all their time busily making

shoes, and store away all their coins in a hidden pot

of gold at the end of the rainbow. If ever captured

by a human, the Leprechaun has the magical power

to grant three wishes in exchange for their release.

In the color spectrum of the rainbow,

green is a second-order color formed from the

mixing of yellow and blue.

In feng shui green means balance

which inturn brings harmony.

It is versatile and it isnt gender specific

until we choose it to be.

We can find green just about

anywhere we look,

Green apples

Green glass

Green limes

Green beds

Green curtains

Green walls

Green shades

Green chairs

Green doors

My favorite green will always be *HOME*

MOTHERS DAY HOME TOUR joannes livingroom

For all you shabby chic loving moms out there

I have a wonderful room tour to share with you on your special day.

Recently George and I had the opportunity to meet Joanne

and were honoured to see inside her beautiful home.

And she was kind enough to let me have my way with the camera to share with you.

I took a LOT of photos so you may be lucky enough to see more rooms down the road,

but for now I am just going to spoil you with her livingroom.

And trust me when I say,

"THE WHOLE HOUSE LOOKS AMAZING"

Joannes has been thinking about painting the gold fire screen.

My opinion was either way looks wonderful but I thought we would get your input.

DO YOU THINK THE FIRE SCREEN SHOULD STAY GOLD OR GO WHITE?
