Hello everyone, glad that you have come to visit. I hope to be telling you what I am currently working on or getting on my soap box about different issues. The saying "do what you love" is what I am trying to work toward. My family has always loved to fix, refinish and repurpose furniture. I express that quality in painting my found treasures and make them in to functioning art if possible. Most everyone that I know have seen pics of my painting on facebook. I am trying to get my albums linked up to the blog but haven't been successfull yet. Hopefully when you come back, I'll have it straightened out.
I have an etsy shop (distinctsurfaces.etsy.com) where I sell the smaller items that I have painted. I haven't sold larger items in my shop cause I am timid about shipping them. Hopefully I will get it figured out also.
I have so much to learn about selling, shipping, blogging, and not getting over whelmed by it all.
The past few weeks I have been working on mirrors. I have been inspired by Melanie Royal's mirror and glass workshop. I have been recreating mirrors for old window frames. I have wasted several learning the process of distressing, etching, gilding the mirrors. But it have been alot of fun working on them. The Antiquing solution smells like rotten eggs so the animals think I am cooking.
I am still trying to figure out how to get everything to work together so today I apologize for the looks of my blog, I hope to improve it quickly. But for today, the clock as struck 12 EST. Sweet Dreams. I hope that you will continue to come and visit with me.
Have a wonderful Week and upcoming Easter.
