House Work - The Throne Room!

My toilet floor was 1950s tiles which I had painted with off-white floor paint to hide the dirty brown colour. But the paint was soon chipped by the step-dragging activity of a handful of preschoolers, and it was time for a makeover ...

Here you can see another collage floor, Work In Progress ... There is a good layer of PVA showing in this photograph as The Beezer has been thoroughly soaked before applying ...


Finally covered with three coats of floor varnish, my children are allowed back in! Now I just have to stop them reading the comics instead of washing their hands for dinner!

Altered Art ....

Took some old picture frames with potential, and sanded any that needed it. this green one had a wash of white acrylic too ...


A donated old bible, which i had been after for some time, gave the frames a new lease of life ...


And with more precious pages and two Lovely quotes I created small pieces to fit into the frames.


These will be on display in Bridport soon :-) I had fun with collage papers, chalk and gold paint.
