Let's play...

Wanting to give the Chateau an update, I started mixing paint colors...well, this clock was the first thing to receive it's makeover...LOVE IT!!!
Looks sorta Scandinavian doesn't it...?

Then we go for the big time...when doing big pieces like this, I just drag out the papers and a wet rag and just start slathering it on...

...then the fun part begins...putting back all the stuff that makes your heart beat...
your toys, the trinkets you just can't part with no matter what...

...more playing...

...and more playing...
did I mention I LOVE my new dove grey look!!!
