Dr. Seuss Illustrations Inspired Night Stand and Table - Hand Painted Chalk Paint

Hello

Been busy this week working on some pieces that are Dr. Seuss inspired! I am having so much fun being brought back to my childhood. Reading books over and over... for visual reference of course. LOL! These are some Seuss--ified pieces all right!

This first piece was done with Folk Art Chalk Paint - Imperial (red), Shabby Paints - So Serene and Licorice.


The Before & After shot...


This next piece with a before and after image of a thrifty table find I stumbled across years ago and I a just now getting around to redoing it.




Just to prove it's not clipart here is an image of my daughter sitting on top of the table.


Hope you enjoyed these projects. Keep any eye out for an online video class on how to do this technique.

Over on my Uniquely Grace Blog there is a bit more about the Truffula Trees and the Window Display at +Books on Broad  all these fun pieces went into.


Now that is ALL GUSSIED UP!
