    Hi Rachel, hands down love the pedestal bowl. So pretty. When you said the mum plaque was giving you paneling and shag thoughts I laughed so hard. 😂I was saying oh yes that’s a 70’s piece. You brought it right into 2024. AWESOME ❣️I enjoy finding 70’s pieces and seeing what I can do with them cause they can be challenging.

      Lol . . . I loved the form of the mums as soon as I saw them, but they definitely took me back haha!! I'm glad you liked how it turned out! And I am really happy with how the little pedestal bowl came out, too!! :) Thank you so much!

    The mum plaque. I like them all but the mum once you were done with it changed my mind. I’ll tell you that I would never have picked it up but you seem to have an eye for what could be. Looking forward to what you might find for future projects come Tuesday. Good luck with your reset and beginning of another growing season. Happy weekend Rachel!!!:):):)

    The Pilar holders were my favorite. FYI Yvonne of Ginger Chick Rehab, say's and uses Shellac when things are slick. She sprays on 2 coats and let's it dry, then paints her project. She says never had a problem with the paints. Hope that helps you Rachel.😊

  • @caroltanzi29
    @caroltanzi29 5 місяців тому +3

    Rachel: some history behind two of those pieces might be interesting to you. First: the square pedestal is from the middle to late 60’s. When I started my job as the home furnishings co-ordinator at Macy’s, this was one of the accessories that we showed on the furniture floor in the model rooms. Second: that mums plaque was one of many that were very popular. I believe the name of the company was Syroco. I hung them amongst picture galleries. Very popular. All of their pieces came in brown or white with a gold wash. About the same time,- 1965-1970. You have to just love retail! You really did a nice job with that plaque. Carol from California

    All of the projects are just wonderful, the pedestal bowl color really pops those flowers. My favorite is the bird and nest. LOL, shag carpet and paneled walls. I remember those days, ugh. My friend, please don't push yourself too hard. That leads to exhaustion and sore muscles. hehe We will watch whatever you post and love every minute of it. Show us how the nursery comes together. That was a fun video last year. You have such good instincts for what works for each space. Show us how to take Santa and his reindeer down. ROFLMFO Oh crud, now I can't get off the floor.

The pedestal bowl was a fun little piece - I forget sometimes about Prairie Grey and it really is a pretty color. :) I will try to take some video of the nursery this week as I get it cleaned up (and yes . . . take santa down, lol).

    I liked your pieces overall but I do think the dark wax is a little overdone. I really liked the wall piece you did, until the dark wax showed up. You spent all that time dry brushing the crinoline on it only to have it muted and covered up. For me, I would have liked to see the dry brush technique back over the dark wax to reveal the highlights again. Dark wax good in small doses, or else it just looks one-note. ❤
