Stillwaters



The projects for Taste of Stillwater are coming along and I am managing to stay organized among all the other things happening here, moving, packing and making sure I am not packing away things that I need for the show or to finish for the show. I have already had to dig around in taped up boxes... not happening again. So silhouettes on fabric covered canvases, spray painted stencils and more silhouettes on canvas pillow covers. I am excited to see how these sell. On to the next project to fill up the space, reupholstered footstools and chairs!

Reclaimed

Three quick makeovers this weekend involving a cuckoo clock, a ceramic cow skull, and a plastic framed mirror.... I had cheap white paint so it was a bit chalky and runny to begin with but it all turned out
The mirror will look great in the show displays coming up

The skull has been added to my bone collection, next to Annie.

This is my favorite piece that turned out. The plastic disc that goes on top of the clock got all marked up and a bit of paint on it too, so that had to go... but it works and even cuckoos which was a surprise. I still don't know what do to about the missing pendulum but I love it and it is mine for the time being. What a great pop of color in the livingroom.
