Old Cabinet painted In Spring Hill Green

Inside Before

Before

After



Our Grand Opening for our new store Fresh was this past Saturday and we were busy all week getting the store ready on the inside and the outside. I had been painting several pieces of furniture trying to get somethings in the shop in those beautiful CeCe Caldwell paint colors. I chose Spring Hill Green for this china cabinet. The before picture shows the inside of the cabinet which was a 1960's wallpaper that took about an hour to remove. I painted the inside of the cabinet Mississippi Mud by CeCe Caldwell Chalk and Clay paint. I think the Spring Hill Green is such a rich beautiful color and the clay pots were a good contrast. We had a great Grand Opening and we look forward to this Saturday as we celebrate the Azalea Festival and we have our First Look Weekend. We have several great vendors coming to set up on the outside of our shop with their goods. Ann Perry with the Tin Rabbit will be here, Della LeMoine with Dove Cove Finds, and the Mill Creek Stain Glass Art folks.
Have a blessed week!

A table made from an Old Antique Door

AFTER
I had an old antique panel door that needed a little TLC. Someone had kicked a hole in the bottom panel so my husband cut that panel off and salvaged the boards but I decided to make a table with the rest of the door. I had four great table legs for at least 5 years that I had been saving for something special. This was the re purposed project that the table legs would be perfect for. So the legs were attached to the door and then I painted the new table with CeCe Caldwell's Sante Fe Turquoise and Virginia Chestnut paint. I had two cute red metal chairs that I paired with this fun table. I am busy with other painting projects that I will share when I'm finished. Have a wonderful week.
