Window Box Roses

Remember I told you about a window box I found a few days ago treasure hunting?

Today I added a fresh coat of paint.

When I saw this I pictured this window box filled with roses of course.

First I cleaned it up the best I could,some of this old dirt did not want to come off.

This window box is sitting on a bench I also painted today,more on that later.

I am having lots of fun trying different Vintage Market And Design paint colors.

This time I wanted to try New Leaf mixed with a little Dove.

I did not want this window box totally covered because of course I wanted a distressed look.

After painting and sanding it I gave it a coat of Dark Umber wax.

Love using that wax,just make sure to mix it well before using it because the color settles to the bottom after it is mixed with the wax.

I did not paint the inside because this is a window box and will be used as one.

Loving this color, especially with the dark wax.

Just showing this propped up on my little chippy step ladders.

A splash of pink looks perfect with this color.

I am thrilled to teach another workshop at Lucky Junk tomorrow and I am planning on bringing this window box with me.

I have quite a few projects lined up for next week.

The countdown begins until my daughters Graduation party.

And lots to do!

Excited to share these sweet aprons that will be available at Lucky Junk!

Cannot wait to get my hands on one!

Janet also just announced more dates for Vintage Market And Design Furniture Paint Workshops.
