Princess Toy Box

 The grandparents who commissioned me to paint this toy box:  maggies-disney-princess-toybox
asked me to do a matching one for another grandchild.

Addie's Bird Rocking Chair

Maggie's Disney Princess Toybox

 (to match this growth chart)

Camper's Rocking Chair

For an alphabet-themed nursery.  The dog in the "R" spot is their border collie mix, Ruby.

Padraig's Irish/ Knight Rocking chair

My friend's mother-in-law has commissioned me to do a rocker for each of her grand kids. The family is very proud of their Irish heritage, so I needed to incorporate that into the design.

Helping Chair

I bought this unfinished stool for my daughter Corinne to use in the kitchen several months ago. I finally got around to painting on it.

Toy Box with Winnie the Pooh and Butterflies

This was done to go along with a butterfly growth chart that I had painted for Ava. Mom wanted a toy box that incorporated the butterflies, pastel color scheme, and Ava's love of Winnie the Pooh. I also did a book storage box.

Noah's Ark Rocking Chair

I painted this onto a rocking chair that I picked up at a tag sale. It is still available for sale as of Aug 2010.

Farmyard Bedside Table

We had this table kicking around. With that chicken wire front, I had to do a farm theme.

It's all about the little details...

Heirloom Table

This table was mine as a child, and belonged to my mother and grandmother before that. I believe it was handmade by my great grandfather. It was originally a light wood finish, which I normally wouldn't paint over, but my sister had carved the names of her favorite bands into it as a teenager, and it had a large crack in it. I'm happy to have made it functional again, and added a personal touch. Now it belongs to my two daughters.

Ballerina Night Stand

Another yardsale "trash to treasure". I think I paid $5 for the stained wood night stand. It involved a lot of different techniques, including sponge painting, washes with glaze, striping and florals. Lots of work, but one of my favorites. A good friend bought it for her two daughters' room.

Woodland Highchair

I found this highchair in the trash. A little primer, a lot of handpainted gingham and a cute woodland critter scene and voila.

(if I had it to do over, I'd make the scene facing in, toward the baby)
