Say hello to “Boxwood”
It’s now time to introduce the 12th and final color in my line of milk paint. Say hello to “Boxwood.” Here’s what the piece looked like before… My inspiration for the color was a boxwood bush (obviously.) I love the rich, green color of the leaves… …and it looks […]

German Glass Glitter makes almost anything better. Well, except maybe not cheesecake. Yes.
