Spring, the sweet spring, is the year’s pleasant king,
Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring,
Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing:
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The palm and may make country houses gay,
Lambs frisk and play, the shepherds pipe all day,
And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay:
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The fields breathe sweet, the daisies kiss our feet,
Young lovers meet, old wives a-sunning sit,
In every street these tunes our ears do greet:
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to witta-woo!
Spring, the sweet spring!

I was tired of the "ho-hum" dark brown picture frames I had hanging in my hall way. Time for a new coat of paint. I painted the frames with a container of sample paint I had mixed at Lowe's and added Plaster of Paris for a chalk paint effect. For the gold accents, I used Amaco Rub'nBuff - Gold Leaf. I love this stuff! It's easy to apply and adheres to woods, metals and plastics. As you can see, I'm rather sloppy when I paint, but I like the worn look. I think this paint scheme would be beautiful on something larger and more ornate than my frames .... but until then, I'll enjoy my little gallery.
