Day 1! The Girls!"
Ranger always seems to put a smile on my face even their staff of amazing woman who I call my dearest friends, they add to the magic of each product that is produced. This year I fell completely head over heels for their newest product: Vintaj Patina Paints which are patina paints that were developed w/Vintaj, my other fave group.

These paints are released by Ranger which are Vintaj Patina's and Vintaj Glaze which is actually a metal sealer and patina extender, it can be used over paints, inks, etc, imagine the possibilities, in addition I always enjoy Claudine's products and The distressed inks from Tim.
