I was having so much fun doing this Pinterest Tag I thought you might want to play too.






Playing Pin Tag will help you find more great pins and more people will find you.


So lets play tag! Your it!




How do you Play?
 Playground Rules


1.  Add you Pinterest link to the party not your blog link your Pinterest link so everyone may find your boards

2. Add my button to your board you might want to make a party button board


3. Play Pin Tag and pin something from three different boards.  Come back here and leave a comment about the pins you've found.


For those of you having problems with your image Pinterest will block adding image so choose "From File" and upload an image from your computer.  I put a pic of me so people may see who they are Pinning with. :-)






What a fun way to find new pins and bring over new visitors to your blog.  
This party is not sponsored by Pinterest it is just a great way to share your pins and get recognition.


This party is not just for bloggers any Pinner may play too.

Beautiful feather and floral graphic







Finally a French typography which roughly translates to “Serious and Pulls By the House and Cio Charaire Paris-Sceaux.” Which uhhh makes no sense to me lol but hey it looks good for a background or decoupage.

I recently had someone on my Facebook page say she liked my images but did not understand the concept.  So I thought I would ask what do you use images like these for? We’d love to know or you could email me one of your projects and I could share it. pjhdesignsinfo@gmail.com. 

Hope the rest of your week is wonderful. Princess

A Quick Before & After





Hello everyone and happy TGIF!  Hope you are having a good one.

Here is a small project I just finished and carried to the shop.



This picture shows the true color ASCP “Coco”.  Some of the other pictures were taken in my booth at King’s Antiques in Shreveport and the fluorescent lights made it look more green than gray. 



I forgot to take a before picture but I did have this one from a group I had taken of my furniture that is stored waiting to be refurbished.

You can just see it under the larger table it at least gives you an idea of the original color.

I first of course cleaned it up then applied two coats of the “Coco” paint.  I have to say that I love Annie Sloan Chalk Paint but I have not found that it will cover a dark stain or paint in one coat.  I applied two coats on this piece.



I then traced an image I found at The Graphics Fairy using carbon paper and painted it with “Old White” ASCP.  I also painted the trim and lattice work “Old White”.











After that dried I applied a coat of clear wax (also Annie Sloan) and distressed it lightly. Finally I applied another coat of clear wax and in a few places some dark wax to age it some more. 

And there you have it. Have a great weekend and happy painting. Princess
