This is a vintage metal stacking picnic tin. I have painted two of these with my chicken design. I wrapped the handle in some homespun black and tan checked material. The inside of each tin has been left natural so you can use them.

A few more new items for spring shows....
Here's a few more vintage, glass, Mrs. Buttersworth bottles. I painted two of each of the above designs.
This is an old coffee pot that didn't have a lid for. I first painted it black and then covered the black base coat with blue. I sanded off some of the blue for an old look. On it I painted a sheep and some vines, it says "We do not remember days, we remember moments". In the top I added some spanish moss, a child size cup and saucer which is painted to match the coffee pot. Inside the cup is a battery powered flicker tea light.

Chairs that I painted for two of my Grandaughters for Christmas
I painted a vintage school chair for Hannah for Christmas. It is painted with a light pink base, darker pink and lavendar stripes and then I added some mauve lady bugs. I will paint more of these for my spring shows but the chairs will be different styles, but they will all be vintage school chairs ( I have a ton of these in my craft room).
I found a wood doll highchair at a thrift store two weeks before Christmas, I painted it for Beka and her babies. It's painted light pink with sparkles. I added flowers and a big lady bug. If I find anymore of these I will paint them up for my shows but I don't know if I'll find any.
The first part of next week I will add some pictures of new items I am finishing this weekend.
