Hello y'all, I finally found some time to paint...yea me...I didn't have to go to Jackson (Richland) this week so I took advantage of not having to babysit or work on the house. Already had my house clean so...with DH under the weather, with another sick headache and sleeping most of the day, I tried to be real quite...so I headed to my paint room and lookie what I did.This is one of my most favorite patterns by Trish McMurry ...
I have had this tray for awhile, my DIL's Mom bought me 3 of them at a yard sale last summer while she was down for a visit. The largest of the 3 I painted for her Birthday last year.
This one is a 14" x 10" oval, just perfect.
This one is a 14" x 10" oval, just perfect.
I started off by spray painting it Black...
Then I transfered the pattern
This is what it should look like after it is tranfered then the painting begins...
This is the finished project. I have painted this pattern at least 25 times on one item or another, but....I have never painted one for ME. This one is mine. It will go in my new black bedroom next to the bed to hold my candy dish.... or what ever I need it for.
The tray is beautiful, Molly. You're very talented. Thanks for helping me celebrate my 100th!...Christine
ReplyDeleteLove the tray!!! Do you do any paintings? If not you should. Kathy
ReplyDeleteWow! Thank you for showing the process. Did you do that original pattern too, I assume?
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is just lovely!! You have a talent for this. I think you need to do things "just for you" once in a while. It will look great no matter where you put it.

ReplyDeleteI have always painted stuff I love for others and for sale in a store. Now I have collected a bunch of wood pieces that I want for myself and need to find the time to paint them for me.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great pattern. Is it yours or from a book?
