Hi Lesli.........well i washed it by hand or with a wand carefully......especially since i had glitter on it. But right now my van is sitting in the driveway growing mushrooms in side........boo hoo!
Love, Violette
p.s. yes it would be fun to have coffee with you under the tree! Yay
I so agree, you would be such a pleasure to live next door and have you as a neighbor, I can just picture having morning coffee with you under that tree.
i first sanded the van to get a tooth and then i used high quality benjamin moore household latex paint. You have to sand it first and then the paint will adhere. The first time i painted it i used enamels from BM but i don't like using oil based paints so the next time it was latex.
We just discovered that you are the same Violette featured in the book LIVING THE CREATIVE LIFE. My five year old recieved it for a Christmas present! I've been reading it to her and we are both enjoying it very much. We'll check out your website too.
good earth original is my fave.. although most of my teas come from the garden cos its alot cheeper that way. i live in hawaii, and ive never been much of an adventurer BUT im working on changing that.. so please be sure to keep this moth on raincheck violette. i must stop in for a visit... it reminds me of alice in wonderland yay!
yay!! awesome video violette! i can't wait to see more!! i love the video program you used with the spirals and the stars. i think mine has that too... what kind of camera did you get? it takes great videos!! xoxo jelene
