Newest Painting Creations

Hmmmmm, my blog seems to have been taking over by my fur babies..lol..not a bad thing, because I can't ever get enough of them..but, I do still paint..lol...I have recently finished an oval train case that I think turned out so shabby chic and perfect for the pink lovers..I have also been making pin cushions out of the old Ball jars and I LOVE how this one turned out..They are so useful for holding buttons, or sewing supplies, ect..I need to make one for myself..that will be my next project..I haven't listed these items on ebay or etsy, as of yet, because I am working so many overtime hours at work, I don't feel that I have the time to commit to my customers as usual..I do miss listing and talking with my customers, but hopefully, soon, I will be back into it full swing..I do have a 'helpful hint' about removing candle wax from countertops and painted phones..lol..My husband accidently splattered candle wax out of my candle warmer and it splattered all over my counter and hand painted french phone..luckily the phone only had a basecoat on it..lol..I laid paper towels over the hardened wax and then used a hot iron and went over the paper towels..the wax melts into the paper towels and wha la, comes off of the counter tops..the phone was a little trickier..lol..this works on carpets as well and have used it many times over the years..The reason that I didn't just 'scrape' it off my countertops is because my counters are painted, of course..lol..and I didn't want to take the chance of ruining my countertops...even tho they are sealed, care has to be taken...Okay, I guess that's about all for now...Hope you are all having a wonderful and warm February day..
