Blue "Toile Like" Kitchen Herbs in vintage metal frame!

Lavender and Mint in the blue and white style! 

Shabby chic Vintage metal Frame

I placed the mint and lavender in a vintage metal frame and painted it with chalk paint 
I had some vintage frames laying around and thought it would be fun to play around with some chalk paint and wax.  The freestyle technique was inspired by a piece of vintage toile styled fabric. I love blue and white!

I have whole pile of miscelaneous herb paintings and a stack of very cool frames that will go well with them.

I have them for sale on my etsy store.  Here's the link! 
I have the backs very nicely finished on these, which takes a good bit of time, but well worth it! 

Both have the same type of paper. 
I have always been an advocate of layering artwork or placing it behind something, like dishes!

I love blue.  I am also fond of blue books.  I don't always read them but if they have pictures in them, all the better! 

I have a total of 11 or 12 of these Herb paintings!  
They were not hard to do and are priced to sell!  It's a way to jump in and start collecting my creations.
