A Country Inspired Bench . . .

I made this bench a few weeks ago. I gave it a weathered look, because I couldn't think of anything else to do to it. If I painted it in colors it would tend to look kind of circusy rather than country. My daughter put the seal coat on it and she said she didn't care for the bench. Oh well, you cannot satisfy everyone.

Finally . . . I got the round table painted . . .


I finally got this table painted in a pleasing manor. I painted it three times before this. I figured out how to do simple roses and decided to put them on the top of the table. I think it came out ok. I will be anxious to hear what my daughter has to say when she sees it. Below is a picture of the top of the cabinet. I am almost done, except for some touching up and a seal coat.
