Adding Colour

This furniture painting hobby is a blast! I received a new colour I order from Amazon: Laurentian. I wasn't sure when I opened it up. It looked really hospital Green.
Fusion Chalk Paint: colour Laurentian

The pieces I painted are both Aberfoyle Antique Market Finds I picked up in the Fall. The market is famous and a short drive from Toronto. It been running for almost 60 years and has over 100 vendors making it a great spot for finding pieces to paint. The table with the magazine racks was in need of a good cleaning and one of the racks was missing a bottom which was easily fixed using a few tack nails and a discarded piece of trellis I had in the garden shed. 

Tables pre-paint

                                                                
                                                                       And Post


I am really proud of how these turned out. They add colour to my back porch and the magazine racks are practical.

I hope you like today's episode of Bored to Death Creations brought to you by Covid 19...
