Primitive Life Organic Milk Paint

Hello Friends...
It's been awhile huh?
Many changes here in Florida...
Some personal some not...
My antique and collectibles hobby has expanded to
Wildwood Antique Mall in
Melbourne, FL along
with The Antique Emporium in
Cocoa, FL...
 

And my newest venture is being
a stockist for
Primitive Life Organic Milk Paint.
 
 
Have you tried this milk paint yet?
 
It's very easy to use,
It's made in the USA,
Non Toxic, Biodegradable, very little
to no prep needed.
 
(the large tool box is painted in Cotton and smaller
one painted in Loving Cup)
 
 

There are 12 historically inspired colors
and what I like best is that
you can control the thickness of the paint by
the amount of water you add to the
powder!!!
Cool beans for sure...
 
(The cement urn was also painted in
Loving Cup)

The paint goes along way...and it's ONLY
$22.00.
 
(I even painted the iron planter on the right,
sanded it and left it as is...the look is FAB!!)
 
 
 

If you live in my area, Brevard County Florida,
stop by
The Antique Emporium
625 Florida Ave
Cocoa, FL 
 
OR
 
Wildwood Antique Mall
1240 Sarno Road
Melbourne, FL

Honey Bees in our backyard

Honey Bees....
Made a home in an old vintage trunk
in our back yard.
 
Over 10,00 honey bees....
 

When Ken the beekeeper opened the
lid of the trunk the whole comb
collapsed!
 
He did manage
to save some combs to take home.
 

Ken is looking for the baby bees that will
be transported into this temporary
frame kit.
 

Look at those honeycombs filled
with nectar and honey!!

Ken was kind enough to leave
us with some honeycombs for
us to extract the nectar and honey.
 

He then used some sort of
vaccum to suck up all those
bees to take home.
 
He did say that the bees are not harmed
while doing this.
 
 

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm
the honey is so fresh and tasty, especially
when it's from your own back yard.
 
It was a great educational experience...
my son and I were full of questions and Ken
was so patient with us and the bees.
 
I am seriously considering starting
a beekeeping hobby...
AFTER Fancy Flea of course.
