I love this one, it is like a symphony of colours to me.
I could frame this and look at it on the wall.
There is a lot to be said for faded, chipped and cracked methinks.
Phew, I thought you were talking about me! Lol. ;-)
ReplyDeletebeautiful. i agree, something about 'distressed' paint is more interesting than a perfectly painted piece. maybe as humans we feel like being 'distressed' shows the piece has experienced life much like we have? i dunno :)
ReplyDeleteI love the faded, chipped and cracked too! There is something so gorgeously comforting about weather worn wood! I want those doors! X
ReplyDeleteLove faded, chipped and cracked too.....just wish it didn't apply to my face..ha ha.. gorgeous pics.X
ReplyDeleteSo do I Kym, so do I. And my poor hands aren't coping very well with this icy weather.
ReplyDeleteLove the faded blue. Great blog. Glad I found you from abeachcottage. :)
ReplyDeleteI cannot begin to list the hours I spent scraping off old paint and applying new. I love this look and wish I had saved, not only my time, but the pieces I striped.
ReplyDeleteA symphony of colours ... I love that! I too could look at those doors on the wall (sounds a bit back to front, doesn't it ;-)
