Hi Friends,
There are ever a bunch of projects going on at the exact same time. Sometimes it's a large projection that takes a long fourth dimension to complete, too other times are a diversity of modest projects the ones that popular upward too choke along us busy. Well, at this instant I stimulate got a combination of both of them.
I'm even hence working on updating the living room, I've been adding crown molding, the chunkier baseboards, trimming the windows too the large doors inward betwixt rooms, too that's taking me lots of time, specially the afterward one, amongst all the footling pieces that postulate to live added on both sides of the opening. The other footling projects I've been tackling are finishing the organization of the drawers inward the kitchen too setting my part inward the dining room. Boo. And of course of pedagogy at that spot is something else that I don't hollo back at this moment. :)
The projection today, prototype a bunch of quondam books, is 1 of those modest projects that pops up, merely it's something that was inward my to produce listing for a really long time, Even though they're supposed to become to the office, I know I'm going to role them all or hence the house.
I scored a large bunch of these books, nigh of them large police push clit books, that in 1 lawsuit the laws changed, they're discarded. They were the perfect candidates for this project. My miss idea I was nuts too didn't desire me to pigment them. I assured her it was alone the encompass the 1 to live painted too that she could read all those books every bit presently every bit the pigment was dry.
Homemade chalk pigment was the 1 I used, the 1 yous brand amongst plaster of Paris. I followed this recipe here, using regular apartment wall paint.
Two coats were necessary, letting the pigment dry out inward betwixt coats.
I gave them a low-cal sanding to smoothen out the roughness of the chalk paint. The edges got lightly distressed.
Just for fun, I created some romantic titles amongst my favorite novel tool, the Silhouette Cameo.
You tin download those Silhouette titles HERE.
In an all Valentine's twenty-four threescore minutes menses spirit, they're gracing this vignette inward my identify unit of measurement room.
