THE GOLDEN RULE

I know what you're thinking....."Treat others as you want to be treated".  Yes, technically that is THE "Golden Rule" and I say that to my children often.  However, I'm talking about the other golden rule, 

"If you don't like it the way it is, use antique gold Rub N' Buff on it".

Case in point......this here simple demilune table I scored for $5.00 last year at an outdoor antique show.

There is nothing wrong with.  It's sturdy and has no chips or scratches.  

But it does absolutely nothing to excite me. 

But look at it now, after following the other "Golden Rule".....

I find it much more interesting to look at now. 

Rub 'N Buff is so easy to work with.  I spent a total of 30 minutes on this project and I'm still using the same little tube of Rub n' Buff I bought for this project. 

I know, my mums are looking a bit tired, 

but check out this lovely piece of silver I scored at a thrift shop a few weeks ago for $3.  

And these cute little owls. Another $3 thrift store find. 

This demilune sits in our second floor landing.  

Now I'm thinking I need to do something fun to the mat of this collage.  It's boring me!

I was inspired to turn something gold after seeing this amazing chair Carmel painted for her foyer. 

Also, my client who is working on implementing this design, toned down 

her shiny brass chandelier with Rub N'Buff.  I love how it turned out. 

What do you think, should I trademark "The Other Golden Rule"?
