In Praise of Frogtape

 

I have had this roll of tape for a while.  I intended to use it but then I put it in a drawer and forgot about it for a few weeks.

 

I needed to work on a headboard for a wedding banner of sorts and thought of the Frog tape.  I dug it out of the clutter in the drawer and began to apply to the headboard.

 

 

 

 

I first applied small pieces around the center oval and then straight pieces across the top edge of the bottom. 

 

I had previously painted the headboard a shabby white with satin finish Behr Paint from Home Depot.

 

 

I got out my trusty can of Rust o Lum Chalkboard Paint and using a Purdy brush, I painted two coats as suggested in the directions on the paint can. One going across the piece and one going up and down. Allow a day to dry inbetween coats.

 

 

I worked right up to the tape with my Purdy brush and the Frog Tape did the job.

 

 

 

I am ready to rub the Chalkboard surfaces with the side of a piece of chalk, wipe it off with a dry cloth and write the names of the bride and groom, date.

 

 

 

Just so you are aware, no paint came off with the tape, YEAH!!

All remarks have been voluntary.  I have not been compensated in anyway for my review.

 

This tape is great!  I am going to use it everytime now!

 

 

Hugs, Nancy

Turquoise and Red Step Stool Vintage

I was wandering around a thrift store the other day and saw a great little stool.

My mouth started to water as I thought of all the colors it could be.

Before I could get there, two other ladies spotted it and were discussing it's merits.

I was crushed.  I pretented to be looking at other things, hoping that they would pass it up.

The walked around the corner and started talking about something else.

I walked over, put it in my cart and one of them said to the other "weren't you going to get that?  Oh just let her have it".  They had abandoned it, I did not snatch it from them, although I wanted to.

This is how it looks today!

It is bright and cherry, fun colors and sturdy.  It is a vintage stool and is all wood.

It is a sweet addition to any kitchen or bath.

Pedestal Round Side Table

This was once a simple white table waiting to be made into something extraordinary. 

I sanded the lacquer finish off and then primed and painted it AS Chalk Paint Graphite.

Sanded the edges, put a decal in black in the center.

This is the great result.  I am so happy with it.

It is now available in BOOTH 104

My Intentions Were Good

I just finished a blue buffet, ornate antique, with a stunning mirror, got it loaded and delivered it to Merchant Square Antique Marketplace around 12:30pm and it sold before I could get home to post a photo of it. I was thrilled at the sale, sad to see it go, I did look for a place in my home for it, I will try and be better about it next time. . . . . .

See what I mean, all painted Duck Egg Blue, waxed, shined, and now in it's new home.
