Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Layering paint, one brush stroke at a time, to create realistic illustrations of flowers, greens, and buzzing creatures looks so easy. Yet tole painting demands patience and a mastery of techniques, such as loading, shading, stippling, and wet-on-wet applications. From the design crew at Chapelle, Bingham does a more than credible job of presenting both the basics (including supplies, techniques, and preparation) as well as a 19-project gallery of outdoor items. Each project features directions as well as worksheets on various design parts--a leaf, dragonfly, bee, tulip, and rosebuds, among others. The projects include chairs, tables, fountains, stepping stones and rocks, candleholders, planter boxes, and a watering can. Paint conversion chart and a metric conversion chart are appended.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A must for every tole-painter's library.,
By Dawn Bagnetto (Wichita Falls, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tole-Painted Outdoor Projects: Decorative Designs for Gardens, Patios, Decks & More (Hardcover)
A lovely book with excellent, clear diagrams. The step-by-step instructions are superb which makes the designs achievable by any level of painting ability. The designs are classic and can be easily integrated into any decorating style. No "cutesy" stuff here! The paint conversion tables at the end of the book were a complete surprise - that's what sold the book to me. Bravo!

The book is one of several painting books I have ordered from Amazon. I am pleased with the books condition and cost of my purchase.It has basic tole painting instructions and several creatice outdoor projects. One will like the presentation of project pictures also.. One can take the authors ideas and use in their own creatice painting projects. I also was impressed how it was shipped so it would arrive in excellent condition. I would recimmend this purchase to add to your painting books and happy to add it to mine.
