Milk Paint at Lucketts!
On Thursday, I drove down to Lucketts with Faith and my husband and we worked on getting my space in the lobby looking great and filled with milk paint. I’ve been in the lobby for a couple of months, but it’s been hard for me to get settled there. With the milk paint finally in […]
Furniture Feature Friday – Excuses & a Link Party
