Diana--the bust!



While perusing one of the local thrift stores I found this bust and  decided she needed to come home with me and get a make-over.
Before:




 My daughter decided she looked like a Diana so that is now her name.

I mixed up some thick white chalk paint and painted Diana.  I quickly wiped off the paint with a cloth and loved how she turned out.  My last step was to wax with AS dark wax.  
   I love her new look!
