It had been almost three weeks since HH and I crafted, so we had to seriously make up for lost time. While she and her sister L worked diligently on mixed media frames for their mom's birthday, I took on a painting project of my own.
Remember my botched B?
I decided to give it another go. And the second attempt wasn't better. Actually, I think it's probably worse.
Barf. What's wrong with me?
But then HH pointed out the C she has hanging in her kitchen ...
... and my inspiration was renewed! So, I broke out the red.
And about 849 coats later ...
And a little sandpaper around the edges gave it a bit of distressed feel.
What do you think? Better?
Definitely better. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI liked the first brown version but the red is a smidge better :)
ReplyDeleteI like the red. Maybe you could use a white rub on with flourishes on one corner of the B to get something similar to the first one you painted.
ReplyDeleteOoh! Love it! I'm glad me and my "C" could inspire you.
