They’re organic, beautifully packaged and affordable. We cannot tell you have often these little pots are bought as gifts! They come in three sizes, this being the biggest, and are a sure fire way of putting a smile on someone’s face.
We thought we’d compile a little list of tried and tested gift ideas that have gone done well with our own loved ones recently ❤️ Luckily, us girls working in the shop are perfectly placed to find the best gifts for our friends and loved ones. Sometimes in our busy lives it can be hard to fit any shopping in, let alone gift shopping! Here at Scarlett Ribbon we know it can be time consuming to find the perfect gift.
#chalkpaint #anniesloan #painting #wedding #weddinggift The final step was to choose the handles and (after a drilling tutorial from her fiance!) the piece was finally ready to be delivered – it was even used as the wedding gift table at the reception! Inspired by the Graphite kitchen she’s painting at the moment, Melissa then painted the top of the piece in Graphite, with the Old White base showing through at the edges. The effect was fantastic but there definitely needed to be some contrast. She then used a combination of sand paper and clear wax to give a lovely distressed finish and help blend the bands together even more. Once these had dried, they could then be subtly blended together using a sponge to create the ombre effect. At this point the piece looked to have three distinct bands of colour. She started with Chateau Grey on the legs of the piece, then mixed a lighter shade of Chateau Grey for the middle section and an even paler shade for the top section. Once this had dried Melissa started an ombre effect on the dresser, starting with a darker tone at the bottom of the piece then fading this colour up to the top. Knowing that she was going to be a bridesmaid for her old school friend Melissa kept the piece to one side ready to be reloved in time for the wedding…Īnd last week the Chalk Paint® transformation began! First, the holes were wood filled and sanded, and a layer of Old White was applied all over as the base. There were a quite few holes to fill and lots of sanding to do to smooth it down but the shape of the piece was fantastic. Last summer our workshop leader, Melissa, had been given an old vintage dresser by Janet (her lovely neighbour!).
