Goodwill! Good Find!

So, a couple weeks ago I drove past a Goodwill store and decided to run in real quick.  I came across this square wood end table.  It had two stickers on it: "50% Off" and "$19.99".  I thought, surely $19.99 IS the half-off price, but I was wrong!  The sucker was $9.99!  "SOLD!" I said.  Here it is getting some primer:

After a solid white coat of primer, on goes the yellow...."Here comes the sun... doo, doo, doo, doo...."

Then, to bring out all the detail of this little beauty I added a brown glaze.  Van Dyke Brown from Sherwin Williams is my fave.  If you are new to glazing, it's super easy.  Just paint on and wipe off.  Don't mess with buying cloth rags for the wiping.  You know that old t-shirt of your husbands that's been around longer than you have?  That'll do!  Here's the finished product.

I absolutely love the original hardware!  Total cost: $17.00 Total time: 2 hours.  Whadya think?

Some new spring headbands

Any color combo under the rainbow

vintage pearl center flowers

Hand-beaded poppy flowers are now available for headbands!

Santa, Baby....

I've been super busy with Santa paintings lately.  Get your order in soon to enjoy this big guy in your home over the holidays!  Red, Silver and Gold are the most popular, but I can do any color under the rainbow.  Most ordered sizes are 30x40, 24x30, and 18x24, but I can also get canvases in different sizes if you are looking for something specific.  Contact me for pricing, 405-761-3500 or margaux.lippoldt@gmail.com

Calling all dog lovers...

When asked to do this painting for someone's husband for his birthday, I honestly was wondering if I had it in me.  Santa is one thing, cause he can look like whatever I want him to look like.  But someone's dog is a whole other story.  While we knew it would be an abstract version, I knew it needed to at least resemble their favorite furry creature.  And I have to say I love the way it turned out.  I hope she does too! ;)

PS- Do you like the background left white, or would you prefer a fun color?

Picture Frames

Here are some images of picture frames I'm doing.  Like the headbands, each rosette is made by hand and embellished with all things girlie!  Contact me for pricing, margaux.lippoldt@gmail.com
