Vintage Jewelry Armoire ~

Commissioned Piece:
Christmas Gift for a lucky Lady!
Fun re-style of this vintage Jewelry Armoire ~
I used a combination of different paint houses that I favor on this project. Decoupaged decorative papers and a Venetian plaster technique was used to create depth and texture. The Venetian plaster was sealed and embellished with clear, dark and champagne waxes.
I hope this piece will be loved!

Recap of my week: October 17, 2014 - An Artistic Collaboration ~

A recent project worthy of the samples I recently received from General Finishes Professional Paint Company:
Colors: Halcyon Blue and Millstone
Top Coat: GF High Performance 
Embellishments: Waxes, Glaze and Silver Metallic

As luck would have it these two colors matched the designer’s color pallet for the furniture re-style perfectly! It was fun to collaborate with an Interior Designer and her creative team!

I wanted to share this with you along with my thanks to General Finishes!
Loved the paint & sealer!

Thank you,

I began my week devastated by the unexpected loss of one of our family pets, Esperanza a sweet little cat the ripe old age of 20. As God and his laws of nature would have it a new relationship was immediately presented to me.  A gracious and creative local Interior Designer Francesca Morgan here in Stuart, FL. offered me an opportunity to contribute my artistic skills by collaborating with her and her creative team to work on The Bedroom Makeover Project of Stuart’s The Molly House  

Francesca and her creative team stepped forward offering their expertise to decorate one bedroom by transforming a few of its features with the use of lighting, paint, wall covering, window treatments, furniture, art work, decorative accessories, closet organization, bedroom furniture and bathroom vanities.

As a mixed media artist I am always open to trying different paint and finish products. Another timely gift was a sample paint package I requested to try. I received two colors and a finish from General Finishes Professional Paint Company.  
As luck would have it the two colors General Finishes sent was Halcyon Blue and Millstone, which matched the designer’s color pallet for the room perfectly!
