New Found Hobby

New Found Hobby And Loving It

Yes, its true I have a new hobby and just like others its been so hard to get away from and focus on what I have to get done. My mother introduced me to Annie Sloan paints a few months ago but I had painted anything yet myself, until this past weekend.  While I was under the weather from just having my wisdom teeth removed my mother went out and found a really cute magazine rack at a yard sale. She came back and said, "When you feel up to it I would like to show you how to paint with this chalk paint so you can get addicted too." After a few hours and another pain pill I gained enough strength to go outside with my mother to get lesson on how to paint. I learned that this paint isn't like normal paint. It dries really quick! And that the paint changes colors as you add layers. Its really interesting. My mother and I had some great bonding time. For a little bit of the time we didn't talk. I also learned that painting is therapeutic. Focusing on one thing and just getting lost in painting is just relaxing to me. I LOVE IT! I have posted the before and after pictures! ENJOY! Ps. I may have already bought two other larger items to paint :)
