Re: Help Yourself Market
That's a unique background texture, Doug. At first site, I thought you were using particle board.
Great job, as usual, on the finishing. I have yet to try that milk paint method you had told me about.

Re: Help Yourself Market
Great job Doug!!!
I really like the background, very inventive.
I haven't tried the milk paint either, just another method to put on the list.

You should try Milk Paint. You will like using it.
Milk Paint is the only paint that I use. You can leave it on the shelf for 100 years and it is still good to use.
There are two manufacturers
Old Fashion Milk Paint - pastel colors
Real Milk Paint - Bright colors
