Crafting my vintage display

I love showcasing South Hill Designs at various trade shows and vendor events but what excites me is the fact that I get to design my booth!  Vintage is and always be my theme, so today I took to a few projects to really bring more vintage to the stage.

I have been looking for the perfect necklace display busts and just haven't been in love with any colours so I decided to refresh some that I had purchased from Michaels craft store!  They are PERFECT!!  With a little paint these are now EXACTLY what my table needed to tie the South Hill colours of white and grey together!






You are probably extremely curious as to what supplies I used to refinish this bust!  Well the good news is its very easy and the supplies are all available at Michaels.

I used Martha Stewart Multi surface Satin paint on the fabric of the bust.  I used an $0.89 foam brush to lightly coat the fabric.  



For the top piece and bottom stand I mixed a little of this black chalkboard paint into the white multi surface paint to create a grey. Martha Stewart does carry a grey but it is more warm with a brown undertone.



I found everything needed 2 coats to get my desired effect!  I can't wait to show you the table display with these beauties in it.  

Do you love?

The season has changed and its time to "fall" for rosegold.

Well Michael Kors set the trend for rosegold and South Hill definitely jumped right on board!  The leather wrap has a rosegold metallic finish with simplistic logo studs!  You can now also get a pair of just the stud earrings to compliment your full look!
