French Provincial Desk Makeover
I gave this little french provincial desk a much needed update! Love the aqua and the crystal knobs! You can see the post on my blog here: http://createinspireme.blogspot.com/2013/05/...
I got lucky and bought 6 wood stools and want to put some kind of Art work on them.
I would obviously put different ones on each one. Every transfer technique is either to time consuming or to expensive. I was an Executive for a Construction Company and after 30 plus years just up and quit because of burnout. I have also liked furniture so I just got started buying, repairing, painting and flipping furniture so I can't use a procedure that takes forever. I have plenty of places to get free graphics but have not found a quick way in regards to transfer the graphic. Any ideas?

Painting: What paint to use on unfinished pine cabinet for rustic look?
I bought a pre-loved glass & pine china cabinet with a drawer base that had never had a finish and is paint ready, doesn't even need sanding. I want to do a somewhat rustic look in a cream color. I was thinking of a milk or chalk paint so it doesn't end up with a plastic look from todays acrylic latex paints. Can't find online from Home Depot or Michaels. (Anyone know of a store near Spokane, WA?)Where do I find these paints and how to use them? Thanks!
