White Wednesday -Shabby French Sign

      I had the good fortune this past weekend to both spend time with sweet, sweet friends AND go thrifting! We had a great time and I found many wonderful treasures (more photos to come later)...but one of my favorite finds was from a local Home Goods Store that we ventured into at the end of our outing! A sweet faux chalkboard. It was a cross between a salmon and red color....pretty, but not white. (I am sorry, in my haste I forgot to get a shot of the red color before beginning to paint). I wasn't sure what I wanted to paint, but I knew I wanted it to be a sign of some sort. I found a pretty french label on the Graphics Fairy and used some of the verbage on my own sign. I am NOT a detail painter by nature, so I had to give the whole thing a really good sanding at the end to disguise my less than perfect lettering. I love the end result. It looks worn and weathered, just like I had hoped. I will be sharing this inspiration on White Wednesday! Enjoy!
