projects keep on rolling out

Coffee in bed on a foggy Saturday morning is perfect but soon it was time to get back to my projects.

 the cutlery chest was dark waxed and buffed but the hardware was to shiny

my metallic cremes in pewter and old gold helped tone it down, much better

the rack was given a white wax treatment, shown on right

the little cedar box painted last night needed some bling so I chose a stencil in the grey of the stripe

but in typical painting there were issues, the adhesive left marks so sanding and repainting were in order. But it looks cute. Sheldon made his way out and sorted recyclables and swept up D's area then fit in a nap before running them to town at 2. He met a gal at the dump who scored my excess APC paint, thanks. Britt spent the day getting ready for her big Halloween outing in Lethbridge tonight and soon after S was off, Brooke picked her up and they were headed south, have fun girls.

Next in line was this cute vintage spice rack, it too got the azure treatment, such a fun color.

time to stage my finished pieces and get moved to safer ground.. the cutlery chest looks so much better, perfect for cutlery or at the front door for keys, a jewelry box, endless uses for a sweet wood storage chest

last nights azure paint jobs all prettied up

this knob rack will be awesome for jewelry, hats, scarves etc

 this pretty little fun quote adds whimsy to the treasure box

and I love the little dived cedar treasure box

as promised yesterday's boxes are all finished with another sweet quote added to the picture opening

and the large divided treasure box, I think great for remotes and such on the coffee table

just a few of the finished pieces

Sheldon arrived back home after 3 with teas ;) thank you his afternoon chore was drain the water tank on trees and relax but he did iron his shirts while watching the hockey game and I created the lazy cabbage rolls for supper. They were so good we ate almost the entire casserole just the two of us.

As it was cooking, I tried to stage the round table that had gotten 2 coats of poly applied today between projects. The light was going fast and being dreary to start made for some sad pictures, that and I don't have the right items to stage.. tomorrow perhaps.

After supper off to the TV room for Prince and I was back to garage to wax the magazine rack a 2nd coat and paint back of spice rack.. so much done so much to do ;)
