Continuing the saga of my love for anything MacKenzie Childs...I saw this courtly check pitcher and it was the inspiration left in my head when I found a shop that allows clients to paint pottery. I picked out a pitcher and they provide the correct paints. I just painted away in colors that didn't look like the color it said on the bottle...but I had faith. After I finished they said to come back in two weeks and it would be fired and ready. Here is what my painted pitcher looked like when I came back to pick my project up. I really thought it came out looking really fun (below).

I also saw these two pieces on the MacKenzie Childs website and just loved them.
Can you tell that I am so in love with courtly check, black and white anything. I adore the whimsy of these pieces. Unusual, sorta crazy and just fun. So again using this as my inspiration, I put a spin on a stool/table that I picked up at a garage sale.
