Carie's Screen Door


Who knew a screen door could be considered a canvas?  I have a delightful friend who had this OOOOLLLD screen door that she was reclaiming, and she decided that she wanted something painted on it.  Was I interested?

WAS I INTERESTED?!  ARE YOU KIDDING?!  Of COURSE I was interested!

House paint would never last on a door that gets a lot of traffic (and trust me....this lady's house gets a LOT of traffic!), so I used this paint called "One Shot".  It's TOUGH.  It hardens like fingernail polish.  FAST.  So I had to work quickly, or it got sticky and was impossible to move.

Just looking at it makes me happy.  What a fantastic job this was!
