Mish Mash

18 years ago

I have been trying to paint(I'm hopeless!!) a sandwich sign for the driveway, and here is my mishmash of stuff going on with the tp tower. I'm using leftovers and stuff that I don't have enough of, to do a big project. Klinger and I scored some stainless steel and other bits of tile, but just a few pcs of each so Ta-Da! It's going on my DD tp tower. I am ging to put this baby on wheels as it is gonna be such a monster!!! Liking this "hot pepper" color paint so much that I think once the tp tower is done with black grout, it's REALLY going to POP!!ha! DD will like it!

    Oh... I LOVE the sides!
    Lots of color... and I think that the Black WILL tie it all together! Maybe?
    I really like it, Jane!
    Are those center squares the stainless you mentioned? They are a great addition!

    Jane, it looks awesome.I love all the bright colors, and your sign rocks too.I can't beleive you've got so much done. Jeepers, all I've been doing is using my new steam cleaner and cleaning stuff.

    Oh, CALAM: Scraps or no scraps, you can do no wrongs. This is W.O.N.D.E.R.F.U.L. I LOVE it.

    Janie that is great...keep up the wonderful work!!

  • 18 years ago

    It certainly looks Slow inspired eh? I am happy with it and like the way it is different on each side, that's why I want it on wheels so it can be turned. Some people take reading material to the Biffy, But this is Eye Candy!!! heh heh!!! DH likes it and is happy to be a part of it!

    Janey, your TP looks great! Definitely eye candy! I think the dark grout will make it pop. I love the top orange tiles (plates?). What is the center disk on the top?

  • 18 years ago

    I love the green paint. It really looks nice enough without grout. Me, I am partial to black grout to bring out the colors. What a tower! If my room wasn't so small, I'd make one for storage.

    Girlie: This is another one that is sooooooo beautiful I don't have words for. Wish I could find some of those metal tiles. Those are great additions.

    Talk about eye-popping! Can't believe this is the "leftovers" from your stash!! Looks like you purposely bought it all to go together! Yep, black (or dark charcoal) grout will really set the colors spinning even more!

    I have seen the metal tiles on wholesalersusainc.com but they arent cheap!!!

    Jane- I came back for another look and realized I didnt see the front picture of it. Wow, that is just so cool with those spades, what are they?

  • 18 years ago

    Da-haaannnngg! TP gone high class!!

  • 18 years ago

    Nice sign!

    Thanks Everyone! The top disk is from a set of glass coasters(got 3 left), and did you notice how much these two projects overlapped? I used the ceramic spades as a template for my arrows on the signs I made! Those black ceramic spades are what made me feel "Slow" inspired! When I bought em, (ts find) I wasn't sure how I would use em cuz I don't think they would do well outside and I'm mostly thinking of outside projects. 5 o'clock here and DH isn't home till 8pm sooo...off to grout!

  • 18 years ago

    It's REALLY lookin' GREAT!
    Hmmm... it's 8:20 p.m. in FL.... wonder if the grouting is done....?
    Not that I'm impatient to see it, of course! :)

    CHICKEE - I checked out that website, and found the metal-covered glass tiles. QUITE expensive. I had seen metal tiles in a beautiful piece in the gallery where ROSIE has her mosaics, and still want to find some, but don't want to pay that much for them. Anyone else found metal tiles? Anxiously awaiting pics of the TP tower grouted, CALAM.
