I've moved into the kitchen, not because i need more room or because the desk is in such a state that i cant use it (surprising but true), but because Mr Dunnit ws home early needing a bit of company and i have a deadline to meet with painting this money box!
Apart from the windows I'm making it look like a watermelon, hence the dodgy dark green lines. Net to add some pips on the pinky red and then come up with a pithy and easy to paint word for the surf board. It's a Christmas present and needs to back at the pottery shop by Friday to have it fired and back to me in good time. Ive always felt these sort of projects are better done at the pottery shop, but their genius 'to go' kit means that I can chatter to Mr Dunnit and paint. A welcome distraction from the angst of not being a good painter if nothing else!
Join in with us over at Sarah's wont you? Its fun and it doesn't need wrapping, icing or cooking!!
I like the money box and the watermelon colours are a great idea. Hope all ok with you and Mr D, it’s been a bit of a week for us but hey ho, always happens before Christmas!
