Members TroyS Posted April 28, 2008 Members Report Posted April 28, 2008 That is the coolest BG board I have ever seen. That project would be a PRIME CANDIDATE for multi colored antique stains. Saddle Tan & Timber Brown would be a nice contrasting combination but still leave it rustic looking... But, don't take my word for it, I'm kinda new to this ... Troy Quote Troy

Members CitizenKate Posted April 29, 2008 Author Members Report Posted April 29, 2008 I agree, lots of browns and tans... but I may have to throw in a little red or orange in places, too.

Members CitizenKate Posted May 4, 2008 Author Members Report Posted May 4, 2008 Okay, here's the latest progress. I really intended the colors of the points to be somewhat more intense, but I had to re-apply the antique (for pieces this size, putting on antique is a crap shoot), and the extra work took out some of the color. Still, though, the more subtle shades are nice, too. I painted the little diamond thingies with Createx pearlized paints to create a nice antiqued metal appearance. Kate Quote
ETW Grumpy Posted May 4, 2008 Report Posted May 4, 2008 That's really nice work, Kate. Your stuff always shows a great deal of artistic ability. Really enjoyable to look at. Quote
