blue secretary (part 2)

blue trunk (part 1)

even when I've done a particular technique a number of times, a new piece can surprise me.....

that happened with this trunk. first some sanding, then some yellow, then some carving, then some blue.... the final patina has this oxidized look that I did not expect-but I think it looks fantastic.

and the before.....

little things

I had to do another piece with this finish and design- I just didn't get enough time with the other one!


an 'ode to the new yorker' plant stand.


a pic of some flowers from my aunts garden. thanks diane! they are beautiful!

little cabinet

maybe for over the stove, or in the bathroom, or for keys by the door....



before- must have been an old drawer to something..


love that blue!
