Nesting In Pink

WARNING:  This post has absolutely nothing to do with Christmas.

It is just another painting-in-pink post.


Sweet Pea Pink.

And a waxed paper transfer of a nest.

And some wire.

Remember this ugly duckling from several weeks (maybe months!) ago?

Everyone had passed by the wobbly bookshelf.

She needed exactly three screws, and she was right as rain.

Needed a good cleaning and sanding, too.

Since she is one of those utilitarian pieces, I thought I would dress her up a bit.

I used some of my hoarded Sweet Pea Pink on her.

Grabbed my favorite nest image from The Graphics Fairy.

Printed it out on waxed paper and transferred it to the top shelf.



Sealed it with a matte spray.

Gave the whole bookshelf a good spray of a clear varnish.

I used hardware cloth (which is actually wire) for the back.

And there she is - nesting in pink.

Not a thing to do with Christmas.

Unless you would like her as a present.









She is waiting for you at Riverfront Antique Mall - Booth W-10.

See y'all!
