...side-tracked.
I have the body of my "Verona" storage cabinet all glued together and ready for painting...
...but I had run out of paint because I got distracted by this...
...an MDF unit from Creative Expressions that will hold my glues and glitters.
It went together in no time at all and I thought I would 'crackle' it...
...the crackle medium that I used isn't one I had used before (Artiste) and I don't think I put a thick enough coat on. I know I let everything dry properly, so that wasn't the problem...
...but there wasn't a lot of cracking going on. What did happen was that I used the last of my paint so had to ask Joanne at Pinnacle Crafts if she would kindly order in some more so that I can finish off the Verona cabinet (she did and I picked it up Saturday).
I think I might give this unit a bit of a spritz with some of my Distress Spray Stains.
In the meantime, I'd better get the body of the 'Verona' painted so that I can attach the PP panels and get it finished.
I really must stop getting distracted like this...I wonder if the Distress Ink Pad storage takes long to put together...no; I must stick to these and get them finished...but those other cabinets are oh, so tempting.........................................................................

You look like you are having great fun - putting together storage - which isn't something normally says to other crafters but these do look fun to do!
wow toni! this is great! you surprise me! it's always fun organizing the craft room. i do it sometimes just because i'm not in the mood to make cards - LOL.
love yesterday's owl. you ladies across the pond have some gorgeous dies. we have nothing as nice in the U.S. and if we did, it would be very costly!
have a great week. we're still in the deep freeze here.
hugs :)
I am very jealous. Could you set some up for me too.
Oh what a lovely distraction! I love both storage systems, wish I had more room ..... Hugs, Anne xx
Lovely new storage Toni, hope the crackle works second time round!!
I'm exactly the same, it's so easy to get distracted.but both projects are going to be amazing
Love this Toni. I was checking those out the other day myself. Can't wait to see it all finished.
