I love quatrefoil — what a wonderful shape. So steeped in history — I may have a slight obsession with medieval historial fiction…. Anyway, I have been wanting to make something with a Quatrefoil shape for a while now.
Note — a Quatrefoil wreath is coming up soon. 
In honor of The CSI Project’s first challenge — Paint, I made a couple of painted quatrefoil projects out of an old stool and a big tray.
Come over to The CSI Project for the tutorial and HERE is the stencil.Updated to add: I had a few people ask me the color of the paint on the stool — it’s Folk Art #444 Patina. Also, I’ve updated the links to The CSI Project. I am about to remodel my bathroom and am hoping to do it in this color and white. Blissful!
I’m linking up to these fun places today:
And, have a Terrific Day!
XOXO
I used your stencil to paint the top of my desk, and I love the result! Here's the link: http://31diy.blogspot.com/2011/03/quatrefoil-painted-desk-tutorial.html

Darling Jen~ I love the stool best. So cute! What a great print, I really think I heart it too. Thanks for sharing. Have a splendid day 😉 Jenn
I so want your stool. So cute!
Love em! You have so many great things you share, Jen! Your the best!
Thanks for sending prayers my way. Please continue to keep me in yours. I am really going to need them through this exercise I have to maintain everyday!
oh i love it. can't do it…but love it!
I for sure will be trying this one. I have trays that I have wondering what I will do with.
Love that! I am a recent addict to quatrafoil! Just did an outdoor pillow with a print! 🙂
These are beautiful. I love them both, but the black and white tugs at my heart. It would look great in my sewing room. Off to find the tutorial. If you love buttons for craft projects, pop over to my blog, I'm having a little give away.
Have a great day,
~Karen~
