a little sprucing up

This picnic table was built by my talented husband several years ago for the boys - but it's always been sort of a boring piece to me. I've always thought it needed some pizazz ... but what?
Today ... I let the boys loose on it! I was so giddy as I got the paint together for them to do their thing.
They discovered the drizzle technique ...And the self-print technique ... lovely.
Of course there were many suggestions made by the boss. And many rejections of said suggestions by the other boss. The finished product. I LOVED watching them! This piece is so much more FUN now. This was my best Mother's Day gift.

Happy Mother's Day to all you mommies out there. Enjoy those who made you a mom this weekend!
