More Painting!!!

I seem to have found a love for painting bits of furniture, I bought these shelves on saturday, they had been sanded, so i just gave them a wash and got started with the paintbrush, now like the muppet I sometimes am, I forgot to take pics before and before I put it on the wall, so this was the best I could do I'm afraid, as I have to get at an angle to take it :)
On the top is the angel I made using the pattern from Tona Finnangers Sew Pretty Homestyle
the middle shelf has an expresso set from AVON on it, on the bottom shelf is a piggybank that I have had for about 20 years and it was quite old when I bought it and my lovely new trio I bought from a charity shop this morning for £1.99.

When you see what a big change a coat of paint can make it does become addictive, doesn't it?

I love the way the painted white cabinets ect. look in cottage decorating. I love that style but also love the color black. My kitchen cabinets and bookshelves in my front room are black. I love them but I am so tempted to paint everything white. But then I love the black but I like the white.... Ooh what a dilema!
