Often I buy pieces to paint and by the time they get to my garage I lose inspiration, and there they sit.
In time, inspiration hits me again (or I get low on inventory) and I unearth the piece from the saw dust, rags and paint cans that have accumulated on it.
That is exactly how painting this bed
came about. I bought it in November and numerous pieces came and went
while this poor girl waited patiently for her turn to shine.
sidenote: as I tell this story, Reba's song "Fancy" is playing in my head
Look at fancy now.. hand painted light blue with light grey. Distressed and waxed.
I picture it in a room full of neutrals, linen and maybe burlap.
Hopefully whoever buys it will send me a pic of it in it's new home.
Customer pictures make me happy.
