Kids Table Set

Hubby and I are making a table and chairs set for a customer...... It will be similar to this one when finished....


But the one we are making now is to have Raggedies, my favourite things to paint.... so how happy am I???? The set in the pic has teddies on it. The top of the table is painted with a game on it... ladders and Ropes, like the old favourite Snakes and Ladders. The box holds the dice and the four ornaments that I buy to use as the markers for the game.


Over the next week or two I will show you up date pics of how we are progressing. So far I have painted the four Raggedies for the chairs and whited out the table top Hubby has cut out all the timber and is starting to put the chairs together. He also makes the box and the wooden Raggedies as well....

Here are the Raggedies.... 4 little cuties.....




















The hooks in the top of their heads are just so hubby can varnish them and hang them up to dry......





















This is the table top all measured up and whited out as I call it.... I don't actually draw the pictures.. I just paint them on with a paint brush and white paint... Then I colour them in.

This is actually the end of the gameboard.... You can see what will become a Raggedy and her dolly in a pram. There are always heaps of bees and flying ants all over the table top as well... I love them... Also ants, ladybugs, snails, dragnflies, turtles, worms and even a few spiders as well...

Here we have somewhere in the middle of the gameboard. You can see each square s numbered and we have a Teddy and a Giraffe and some more of my favourite critters....

Here we have the other top corner... This is what I like to call the Blues Brothers Fan Club..... Their is always a sun and a row of little flying ants each is wearing a hat and when I paint them they will also each be wearing sunnies as well... so cute...LOL

Please pop by often so you can see how it all comes together....
