Little French Flea Market

Time sure flies these days.  I started a new job in addition to my regular day job.  Between the two of them, I would say I am fully employed so I'm staying extremely busy.  I finished a few projects and then didn't even get them photographed to share.  I'm finishing last minute projects for the Little French Flea Market where I will be a vendor on April 20 and 21 so if you are in the area, drop by and visit.  It's a charming flea market, one of my favorites. 

 I have a few more caddies to take with me, and we all know I never met a caddy I didn't love.  I put a new twist on these newer ones instead of the same old same old.

The first one is still my usual red and white, but I added a metal embellishment and painted the little drawer knobs red as well.  It reminds me of a sweet summertime red and white shirt with a bow tie.
 I found two wooden boxes and painted one with ASCP graphite, added an old glass knob and painted the word Paris on it.
 Last but not least, I left the second wooden box plain wood and reverse mod podged an image from the Graphics Fairy.  You can see the wood shows through the image perfectly.  For a complete tutorial on reverse mod podging, check out my side bar.  You'll see how easy this transfer technique works. 

Thanks for stopping by.  I know you have lots of blogs to choose from and I am always honored when you pay me a visit.

I may be partying at...
