Isolation projects, I love vintage flower pictures and was very kindly given some from the 1950s. I had already upcycled the mirror and lamp. The quilt I made from fat quarters of fabric, never done one before but did enjoy it πŸ˜€

After a long break, finally dusted off the paintbrushes πŸ˜€ small brown sidetable transformed with a Sage Green chalk paint. Crackle glaze applied to the top, finished with a botanical theme of ivy, sweetpea and butterfly decoupage. Lightly distressed, used a mix of silver and clear wax to complete. Top of table finished with 3 coats of Frenchic Finishing Coat for durability
