East End Painters Dinner

Every year the local decorative painters society has a fund raising dinner...everyone brings one item for the Chinese auction...My Mom, sisters and myself go together and its a great night out..no kids...no husbands!!  Always great fun...I wanted to share my offerings with you for this year...Im impressed even myself..


The first item is a wine rack made from pallets...this came out so good I think Im making one for myself this weekend!!!  I know exactly what wall Im gonna put it on....I hand painted some roses in each corner and then painted 4 glasses with 4 different color roses...its 40" wide by about 20" high... a real solid piece of furniture.

Then because Im crazy!!!  while out on my morning walks I came across 2 tables some one threw out...just sitting there so sad on the side of the road...once I finished my stroll, I jumped in my car and was happy to see they were still sitting there...I took one of those bad boys and painted the base with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint..white on teh base and Scandinavian pink for the table tops...then painted some big fluffy roses...rosebuds, daisy's and greenery...what do you think...not bad for someones garbage....
