  • Happy ♥ Day!!

    Happy ♥ Day!!

    Happy Valentines Day everyone!! ♥ It’s been cold and dreadful outside lately so I haven’t really gone out to hunt for my next pieces to work on but I still needed to paint something. I’ve been thinking about my left over Eulalie’s Sky MMS Milk paint sitting in the fridge so I decided to put it…

  • Who Needs Canvas!

    Who Needs Canvas!

    I had seen a painting like this one on Pinterest a while back and I had to have my own. Who needs Canvas when you have planks of wood around the house. This project was super cheap to make if you have a drill, screws, paint and time. Pallets can be found on Kijiji or…

    DIY Envelope Pillow Cases

    I was browsing Pinterest for some quick DIY decoration ideas… I had some left over Eulalie’s Sky MMS Milk paint from my recent Oak chair project and found these neat pins of painted bottles. I normally take my empties to the animal shelter close by but thought, I could always empty more! *wink * Because I didn’t…

  • My Eulalie’s Sky Chair

    My Eulalie’s Sky Chair

    I picked up this chair as a test canvas for my first Miss Mustard’s Seed Milk Paint project. This was your average plain, old oak chair and I had just the right colour in mind for it. MMS Milk Paint Eulalie’s Sky… don’t you just love that name for a colour!! I do! The greenish,…
