Finished some more flower power trinket boxes last night. I really love the striped ones! It was something that happened to cover up an accident. I painted the wrong color and thought how can I cover it up and still have it look ok? And then I tried the stripes on the pink and black box and I liked it so much that I repeated the stripe idea on the green box.
Today I will put a sealant coat on the tops to preserve the paint.
These are going to look awesome at my Studio Garden Party on sunday!

New Garden Rocks
I just finished these this week. I painted 3 new Garden Rocks and 2 what I am calling Flower Power Trinket boxes. I love how these are turning out. I used outdoor/patio paints for the rocks. First I put a base coat of white outdoor paint on them and then used colored patio paints to design them. this way they will hold up through the winter. I also finished 2 wood trinket boxes. I primered those in white acrylic paint and then put the main acrylic color on and then put my signature flower power design on the top of the box. The boxes have hinges so that the top opens like a lid and you can put whatever treasures you want inside.
I am going to be displaying these at my Studio Garden Party that I am having on Sunday. It is going to be wonderful and I will post pictures later.
