Fun With Paint!

Here is a child's rocker I painted for our Annual Historical Society Auction.  They had an old one that someone refinished and asked me to paint. It was so fun to get out the paints and brushes again.  I just love the feel of paint on wood......I haven't painted in a long time - I've been sewing so much lately -  that it was fun to use a different medium. 
 Here is the finished chair -  real easy flowers, leaves and a bow.  I think the colors really pop on the black.
 Sorry -  this is a fuzzy close-up of seat design.  For some reason I can't get away from red and turquoise.  Hope someone likes it enough to buy it.....I'll let you know.
While I had my paints out - I thought I would paint these S&P shakers.  I got them on sale years ago - unfinished.  I really like how they turned out....will just match my kitchen.  Painting these really got me back in the mood....I have plenty of surfaces to paint on....maybe some Christmas presents......Hope you like them.
