Perhaps it reflects the blackness of my soul, but I find something so alluring about high gloss black angels.
So in the spirit of attending to the blackness of my soul, this weekend I decided to finish curing yet another project…the black angels project.
Honestly people, this project has been curing in my garage for probably seven years. Rather than judging me and thinking what a lazy human being I must be, consider it a personal favor to you. Doesn’t it make you feel better about yourself to know that there’s someone out there far lazier than you? And besides, if I can start and finish a project after it’s cured for seven years, hell, you can do just about anything you put your mind to!
The black angels started their life as an underwhelming resin wall hanging…
This spot over my front door needed a little something…
It’s bland…very bland…
So I took the basic resin angel wall hanging…
…tossed it on a lawn bag in my garage and started spray painting with a high gloss black. It only took 2 coats, so it was quick and easy, plus it didn’t cost me one red cent, because I already had the spray paint (and you are aware that I’ve had the damn resin thing lingering around for years).
And before you know it, it was a reflection of the high glossy blackness of my soul…there…now, isn’t that better?
Here it is above the front door…
You don’t get the full effect from afar, plus the area still needs to much more work (paint on the walls, the door painted black, board and batten all around – I have big plans, people), but you get the idea.
Another close-up…
And the angels from another angle…
Gloriousness!
Thank goodness I felt like letting the high gloss blackness of my soul come out this weekend. I just love how these glorious black angels turned out!
