Recycled Apple Bucket

This has been one of my favorite pieces. I painted this standard scub bucket to give it a faux rust look. I used Corel to manipulate the font to give it that vintage look and then han painted it on the bucket. Then I used my version of a Becky Erickson pattern for the apples and crows and then distressed the heck out of those. I truly enjoyed creating this particular set.

These are my latest creations. Go to my flickr site to the left to see more detailed photos. All pieces will be available at the Crooked Mile Antiques and Treasures on Washington Street in Washington NJ.
