Shop Series: Paint is here!

 It was a big day for Maison Decor~and me! 

I went out to the beautiful countryside of Berlin, Mass

and picked up my first order of Chalk Paint for the shop.

I met up with Sally Barker at Counting Sheep Antiques~

the painful part of writing the check....

The Colin loaded it into the back of my car~

Colin took this pic of me unawares as I unloaded the paint.

It is all safely lined up on my shelves,

and I feel like a kid in a candy store~

now only if I had time to paint some stuff!!

 Instead I took to artfully displaying one can on top of this cast iron angle pillar~

she is honored to hold Old White!

 I'll be mixing new and old things with a distinctive french feel in my shop~

So much to do~but little by little I find things coming together~

I am open for paint sales if anyone needs any!!

I have two ladies coming in this weekend...

 This is the Mora clock I am painting now in Chateau Grey~

it is shown with the original taupe as the accent color...

I have to see if Cynthia likes it like this ( I do) or 

she would prefer Old White or some 

other color for the accents....Cynthia?

 Then it will get waxed and buffed to finish it up.

 Another view of the shop coming together~

 OMG!! Look at this vintage wallpaper I found 

at Sally's this morning!! I fell in love straight away~

This will be so pretty inside a cabinet with pale green or lavender or pink~

Here is Colin entering all my inventory of Chalk Paint into 

my new iPad that I will be using for my store register 

and inventory tracking system...its quite amazing!! 

I'll tell more about that later~

He is my unpaid helper till the bucks

 start rolling in~(at his insistence!)

Time to head back to the ranch and get supper ready,

then I have a 4th grade Science Fair to attend!!
