plain jane Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 OH, that's wonderful, Aubrey! Is it missing the "g" in Spring or is it me? It really is beautiful. :) I love how it looks like tile... it's paint though, right? Great idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyndie Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Oh wait, the tiles are painted??? Wow, I missed that at first look. I thought it was a tile center you painted around. I am further impressed!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubrey Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 OH, that's wonderful, Aubrey! Is it missing the "g" in Spring or is it me? :glare: I turned one of the swirls into the S, so I decided to do the same for the G, but it's annoyingly far away. I don't think it can be fixed now, though, so I'm pretending I like it. :glare: It really is beautiful. :) I love how it looks like tile... it's paint though, right? Great idea! I hadn't noticed--the table has horizontal grooves in it. But yep, it's just paint on a free table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubrey Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 Oh wait, the tiles are painted??? Wow, I missed that at first look. I thought it was a tile center you painted around. I am further impressed!! Yes, the whole thing's painted. It was just a white table. It was supposed to be a Christmas gift for dh, so obviously it's taken a loooooooonnnng time, but the toddlers are the main reason for that. I painted the center--most of it, I can't remember if I did all of it or not--one night when dh was out of town. I did the seasons today. In between today & last Christmas? I repainted what the toddlers painted, drew on, & scratched off. I bought more paint when I ran out/lost what I had, & I bought lacquer, so that (hopefully) it's done for good now! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest. :) I didn't mean to pick it apart, I feel terrible. :( It's really hot out and I've got a killer headache and oh, I'm sorry for dragging up hard feelings. I do think you could put in a "g" at the end and it would look good. The swirly won't make it look like two "gs". No need to pretend to like it.... it's beautiful!!!

Dh said the same thing, & I keep looking at it wondering if/how to fix it. Your post actually got me thinking that I could probably add a g w/out the swirl making it look like 2 gs. (I'd have to get the paint back out, though! Which only bugs me because every time that happens, it magically adds 3mos to the project, lol!) So really--if I fix it before I lacquer it, it won't be bugging me every time I walk in the rm for the rest of my life, & that's a good thing. (And now we have to keep it forever. DARN why'd I paint that thing?) :lol: What is it w/ the heat? I've had that awful headache for ages now, too. The forecast looks like the triple digit heat might be over by this time next week, though. That would be wonderful!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crissy Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 How fun! Nice work Aubrey! :glare: I turned one of the swirls into the S, so I decided to do the same for the G, but it's annoyingly far away. I don't think it can be fixed now, though, so I'm pretending I like it. :glare: Look at the spacing. I think you can fit a G in there. Draw it lightly with pencil first to see if you like the result.

DarlaS Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Wow! You did all that today? In one day? That's amazing! (I agree about the "g" I think it will bug you, and you should try to sneak another one in there.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
