Splendours of Summer...

Just having the time to freshen things up a bit qualifies as a Summer Splendour in my book!...
Here's some of my Freshening via the paint brush lately....
Painted the body of my fireplace...pale pink of course.

and this charming little table found at a G-Sale...



That fun "Blackboard" paint on a kitchen cupboard...








Why hadn't I thought of this before?...









and painted the underside of the kitchen counter...It was butter yellow,


NOT NO MORE....






Have a few more painting projects planned today...


of course I'll show them to you!


Have fun getting your "Splendour" on,


xoxo~Kathy.

    Hi Kathy,
    Now that's just downright clever painting the kitchen cabinet with chalkboard paint! I might have to copy that!

    Love all your painted projects.

    Oh what a difference a coat of paint can make. I have two little garden chairs and two benches I'm going to redo. I'll post pics when I get them done. Paint on my friend.
