That's lovely. We got a book on how to do folk art/barge stuff but I was useless at it. Think it requires a deft hand! If I were able to i'd paint everything like that - the whole house in fact 
Mike started but only got as far as strokes of flowers and would like to know more - tips etc. How about a masterclass?

| You've made an absolutely cracking job of the milk churn. Great stuff! If I were you, I'd not be leaving it where it could be nicked! |

Really lovely and very dramatic with the black background. I would also be very interested in a master class if you feel able to take photo's as you go along.

That is stunning, Dale. It has more than a hint of Eastern European about it. With your gate sign they will be a beautiful welcome to your home.
Please post a pic when they are in situ...
My vote added for concrete - it would never blow away either.
