I just finished this tonight. This is a Jeanne Maurer design and it is a free pattern off of Artist Club. My husband made the candle holder for me and I painted it and then painted on the roses. Shading roses is new for me and I hope to get better with more practice. All in all I am pretty happy with it. Thanks for looking.

Wow that's beautiful. I can't even do the paint by numbers anymore and I use to be an artist long ago. Just can't get into it anymore. Great job!!

ohhh...very pretty, I love the crackle look, I did that on some small painted clay pots and filled them with spanish moss and small painted birdhouses on dowels. It really adds to the look!
