Sold the paint shelf!

Yep, I lovely woman came in and wanted to purchase the shelf I had all of my wonderful CeCe Caldwell Chalk & Clay paint on. That's a lot of paint!




While I loved that shelf, I wasn't married to it and didn't want to be so of course I said yes.
What I didn't think of was where I was going to put all that paint, whew!

 
And more...
 
 
And more still! And I forgot to take a picture of the big cans I put in a hutch I have.
 
 
Here is the lovely Traverse City Cherry shelf that I painted to put the sample size jars on. I will take a picture when I get it all set up. Love that Traverse City Cherry!
 
 
 
Have a great day! I know I plan to!

CeCe Caldwell Chalk & clay paint is here!

Our CeCe Caldwell paint and waxes have arrived. Busy does not even begin to describe my current state of activity. I am unpacking all of the wonderful CCCP and at the same time wanting to start painting with each and every color. I just finished a couple of chairs, one in Traverse City Cherry (OH MY!) and the other is Destin Gulf green. I so love them! Love the colors and love the vintage chair styles too. I forgot to take pictures so I will have to do that and post them.

Check out this entertaining you tube video my friend Debi Beard.

This is crazy week!! In addition to unpacking paint we are getting ready for VINTAGE MARKETPLACEand the Old Hilliardfest.  As I write this I am wondering if the Hilliardfest is going to make it, of all the days this week Saturday is the day marked for thunderstorms and I won't even know for sure until I wake up tomorrow morning.


Please note as of October 1st our hours will be changing:

Hours: Closed Sunday & Monday, Tues. - Fri. 12-6

  Sat. 10-4, other times by chance or appointment.

We are located at 3880B Lattimer St in Lattimer Square in Hilliard. We are straight back from the Dairy Queen. There are several other little shops in our plaza so plan to stay for a bit !
Of course you can always call and make an appointment. Don't forget to follow us on  Facebook

Some new items...











 
I need to get off to bed in order to be rady for tomorrow. Come see us at the Old Hilliarfest and at Vintage Marketplace. I will be posting paiting workshop schedules for October soon.
