A cute little vintage tea trolley that had definitely seen better days and was nearly passed in at auction. I love the little castor wheels.
It's painted a pale French grey with the detail in a darker colour that I mixed myself.
The edge trim is also darker grey. On display is some of my new fleur de lis dinner set I bought recently. An absolute bargain from Haven & Space in Berry.

Awesome! I've got to keep this in mind! I've done a couple of Graphics Fairy pieces, as well as a tea cart done in a harlequin pattern. You might want to check them out here: http://bluestarantiques.blogspot.com

This looks great! I have almost exactly the same stencil, except it has a number instead of the word "paris". I used it on a little table I had too - in grey just like yours!
