back to painting

Up at 8 and ready to get back to actual painting. I decided that instead of going conservative on the desk I have sanded ready to go, I would try the new paint I won and go with a fun young look as the desk is small. Shades of blue and green went on.

The end table gal promised to be at the girls house by 11:30 but by 12:15 she was a no show. What is wrong with people these days. Thanks goodness she had to pay half down as it should be an incentive to actually follow through on her purchase. Waiting to see what she has for an excuse this time.

The day was spent quietly working on the desk painting, sanding, sealing in 2 coats of poly, waxing, dark wax detailing, hardware updating and finally putting back together. In the dry times I sanded the ruler again and sealed both sides before hand painting tomorrow.

tried to get the black knobs to match with paint but no luck so scrubbed them back to original black

I did get a call from the "sister" who wanted the chair of the buyer from last night. She was disappointed it was sold but said she would still like to come out Friday to look for something for her sister ;)

The sunset was spectacular tonight, shifting colors for quite awhile. The skies are fabulous from this view so often. The Chinook is here all week they say, today was 5 and up.

I wrapped up the desk at 8 pm and came in to work on the blog. I wrote one for recent salt & peppers and todays.
