Decorative Painting

Finally did my first decorative painting project ever. This

is a trivet. Couldn't get the whole thing to fit on the scanner

so this is the best I could get the pic to come out.

You did a really great job on your trivet. Isn't it fun to take something and add beauty to it. Hey, if you are starting to paint, come on over to the Decorative and Tole painting forum too. There is a gallery where you can post your pics, and some really nice gals who have shared lots of their projects. Come join us. I like to check in at several of the forums to see what everyone is working on. There are sure a lot of talented people on these forums. Thanks for sharing your project, hope it is only the first of many to come. Luvs
