I'm redesigning, creating, painting, and adding new items to My Zibbet shop. If you didn't see my last post, you can check out my shop HERE.
I'm having fun with the weathered, chippy finishes I love. This cherub was a labor of love, and, a happy accident. I layered my own paint mixtures, with recipes from the FARRAGOZ course, and got this wonderful reaction.
Love it.
This metal heart got a makeover. It was gold originally.
The salvaged metal daisy was something I added before giving it this lightly distressed, subtle crackled, soft white finish.
These vintage skeleton keys got a weathered paint finish as well. Nothing is safe, while I sip peppermint creme coffee, and curl up on the sofa.
I'm also adding a little more character to small frames.
Okay, more projects await.
Oh how I love keys. Happy New Year my dear! Looks like 2014 is your year. Keep warm!

That frame you rescued is just beautiful - I see frames like that all the time at thrift shops but never saw the hidden potential inside them. I always get a great dose of inspiration when reading your blog!
