Outside

I chose a quiet base by using a wood structure, both in the garden furniture and in the tablecloth. The combination with the flowers, the cushions and the wind light, make a happy whole. Bring the outside ambiance inside, by putting a vase on the window sill with branches and birds.

Vases and birds

The vase is pained with Cyprus White. After the paint is dry, apply a layer of Old White, which is diluted with water. Rub excessive wet paint off with a cloth. When the paint is dry, place the branches in the vase, for extra spring/summer feeling decorate the branches with little birds.

Birdhouse

The birdhouse is painted with Peyote Green twice. After the paint is dry, apply a protective coating of varnish so you can hang it outside. The fence will be painted in a mixture of varnish and Santorini Blue. If the paint is dry, add a layer of Old White, diluted with water.

Pillow and flowerpot

The concrete lamp it painted in the colour Verdure Blue. When the paint is dry, apply a layer of the Mystery Grey and varnish mix. Paint the lamp with a brush, divide the paint over the whole lamp.

Give the column a first layer of Mystery Grey. After drying, rub with a blend of 50% varnish, 25% Mystery Grey and 25% Verdure Blue.

And you are ready!

My garden is finished. I’m gonna go sit outside and enjoy it.

Lots of creative fun,
