It’s crunch time for me as I am closely approaching the Vintage market.
I am planning on bringing a variety of awesome found treasures.
Some painted pieces of furniture,some vintage fabrics,and a fun mix of this and that.
I found these pieces of a vintage fence last summer.
I decided to connect them together and add that pretty rose.
The rose was originally an ugly dirty red I don’t know how else to describe it.
I painted this using a brush with Annie Sloan paint in pure white.
Spray paint could have been used but I like the texture of Annie Sloan paint.
I was inspired to paint it this way because of my sweet friend Rosemary.
She is so talented and amazing.
Rosemary uses gesso and layers many of her creations.
So when I saw this rose I new I could do something a little different than just spray paint it.
If you don’t know Rosemary and I can’t believe you don’t go on over to her beautiful blog Villabarnes .
Don’t you love the chippy paint on this piece!
This will be going off to the Vintage market next week!
Thank you to all my new facebook likes!

Anne…
When I saw that first picture I thought of Rosemary. She does the cutest little projects. Your cottage fence is darling. Good luck in preparing for the market.
Doré Burlap Luxe says
Hi Anne, I adore your fence of many colors of softness and the metal roses are a wow piece.
Your going to do great at the event, you have beautifully added beauty to your life and all you create.
I so know Rosemary and I adore her, does she not inspire the best?
I want to sit by her side and create right with her. Do you not feel the same way?
I will wait to read all the great fortune that comes from your treasures and inspiring pieces.
Have a beautiful weekend with all it will inspire.
Thank you beautiful friend for taking the time to visit and encourage my creativeness.
Blessings to you and your event

Donna Wilkes says
This appeals to my senses! It is beautifully soft and pastel. I love the texture of the old wood. The smell of the rose, uh, wait, no smell – just shabby goodness! Yes, I too love Rosemary. Good luck at market.
Amy says
Love that fence. I bet you have a hard time getting rid of stuff like that, don’t you?

Anne,
This si so gorgeous! I would love to participate in a show like this, but no one does anything like that around here. Maybe I should just do one myself. I live on a farm…..I have acreage! LOL My hubby might not be too happy about it…but during berry season in June, wouldn’t that be such fun?
Thanks for the ideas! I have two old doors and I think I will paint them using Rosemary’s technique. I LOVE her paing styles and her tutorials are so weel done, I might even be able to do it!
Hearts to you,
Betsy
