Delightful Dixie!

This week we’re bringing you one of the first projects to be showcased on the Furniture Painting Hub – With Shabby Nook Facebook Group. This sublime bureau was painted by Toni Brown using 10 different colours from the Dixie Belle Paint range and their amazing and popular Fine Mist Spray Bottle. What a work of art! It was Toni’s first time using Dixie Belle on furniture and she says ‘it’s the best paint I’ve used for blending and the colours are so beautiful.’ We totally agree, Toni, and this method is a fab way to showcase your artistic talents!
