31 Weeks Preggers... and still going strong.
This past weekend, my husband and I embarked on a camping trip to Wheatly Provincial Park.  This park had the most beautiful birds.  We really enjoyed the chirping and calling of birds all weekend... never really experienced anything like it.  He snapped this photo of me when we went over to Pelee Island for the day and rented bikes.  Wow I'm getting large!

 Milk Paint

Today I tried milk paint for the first time.  I've read a lot about milk paint and have always wanted to try it, but had trouble finding it.  I finally found a manufacturer in Toronto, called Homestead House.  They have a whole line of milk paints and different organic, natural, and chemical-free finishes.                    
This is the hutch I finished, using their "Quaker Blue" colour.  I must say, I loved the finish.  Once it was all sanded down, the finish was smooth and flawless.  I rubbed on the Beeswax for protection and shine, and I'm thrilled with the result.  You can find it on Kijiji for $650.
