Paisley's Chair *** Refinished Yard Sale Find***

Finding the right color of paint for the chair was easy. On a trip to Lowe's with my Husband we walked past the Valspar paint and I saw the pretty sample jars of paint...

CLICK the jar of paint to see Lowe's selection.....some pretty colors !

***NOTE***

When using the paint, pour the paint into another container.

 If you paint out to the jar paint gets on the rim and the lid

 won't fit. I didn't use 1/3 of the jar.

Designing the right graphic to decoupage onto the chair was my next challenge..... 

***NOTE***

if you would like me create a personalized graphic for decoupage (downloadable)

I have used this little fairy in a tea cup in some of my designs.....her colors and roses were just the look I wanted to create..

I printed my graphic on tracing paper. If you've used tracing paper you know it's flimsy, so first I sprayed a piece of card stock with  Krylon Easy-Tack Repositionable Adhesive 7020

Carefully laid the tracing paper on the tacky card stock....printed.

When I cut out the graphic I left it on the card stock. As I got ready to apply the decoupage, I pealed it off the card stock. This worked really good.

After the decoupage was done, I gave it time to dry and  added an antique glaze .
