Saturday 9 June 2012

My wonderful husband gave me the day off!!  Well, if you call a day off painting in your workshop!!

I have a number of projects on the go and thought I would share some of them with you today...

Here's a before and after of a queen anne dresser I refinished.

Below is a better photo of the dresser refinished.  I used Annie Sloan "Old White" and then glazed it with a metallic Platinum.  I finished the top and the handles in a metallic Dark Bronze.  I absolutely love the metallic paints!!



Another project I am just about finished is a country buffet and hutch.  Here are some before shots of it... I can't seem to find one of the hutch...but you get the drift...chunky and outdated...





And, here she is in all of her upcycled and refreshed glory!!!!!



Again, Annie Sloan Old White and some Aubusson Blue.

I have to run to Rona to get myself some more metallic paints, last time there they were having a sale on all of them and I'm hoping there is still some left!!  Will post some other projects as soon as I get the chance.  In the meantime, you can see all of Anchique's pieces at http://www.anchique.com

Have a great Saturday!!!  Hope the sun comes out at some point today!!
