Getting My Mojo Back

I've been cleaning out my parents house for a couple of weeks and came upon this old phone, with their original phone number on it.  I brought it home to see if it would work on our kitchen wall, where there is a phone connection. After some playing around with it, I determined that the hardware is too old for my wall.  I decided to make a piece of lasting art out of it.

Since we have a black and white checked floor in the kitchen, I thought I would follow in that theme.

Added a layer of Gloss Medium to protect the paint.  I am quite happy how it turned out!
