For instance, take the two cutting boards pictured to the left. I considered turning them into shelves or even racks for towels or jackets but in the end decided to keep it simple by painting uncomplicated images on them.
A painted star and burning candle on the plain wood of this paddle cutting board was something I'd been considering for some time.
The stenciled star was painted in antique gold and is surrounded by burnt umber. Burnt umber was dry brushed along the inside edges of the star.
The candle stick consists of a straight line using barn red and a half-inch brush, a float of burnt umber on the left while on the right is dry brushed white. The flame was created using one stroke of antique white with yellow, orange and blue layered on top. A hint of a wick was added. Burnt umber, black or grey will work fine for it.
Lastly, antique white was dry brushed around the flame up into the bottom of the star.
The cat silhouette was painted using a flat one inch brush loaded with black. Basic shapes in multiple layers of black were used for all parts than a hint of a shadow using burnt umber was added along the right edge.
A hole was drilled at the center top of the board and a piece of scrap material was poked through and tied in a knot to be used as the hanger.
A simple day project to create simple, country primitive decor for you or as gifts.
Have fun!
