I know.
I still have to get my turkey out to thaw this weekend
and make my wild rice casserole,
sweet potatoes,
and
green bean casserole.
But while I'm doing all of that
I'm painting all of this...
No ice on the lake.
Just sunshiney warm November days.
But Christmas is coming!
The base coat of red went on quick
because there was already a nice wood base.
I used one coat of red gloss
so I could still see some layering beneath.
Chalk in your pattern
and fill the lighter areas with Kilz Primer.
I like to shade the white with camel.
Then I added a little brushed ribbon detail.
These chairs will add a little Christmas Cheer
and brighten some corner
for the Holiday Season.
Happy Art.
Merry and Bright.
I hope you're all enjoying this fun time of year!
I always appreciate your visits,
Deb

Deb, I just love these. I'm going to go out to my garage to see if I have a chair I can do this to! Or I might try painting a seat cushion to use on one of the chairs I have. Really really great.
Love the Santa chair. Beautiful job!
How fun and festive!!! You are true artist Deb! I love them.
OMG! Saw this on Pinterest. How sweet these are. I have a couple of old child size wooden chairs just like these - so have to try this. Thanks for sharing!
