Here is the project created by @imnepiphany:

Tell us about your 'Color of the Year' project. What did you create and how did it go? Are you happy with the final product?

I inherited a little table that my mother had painted gold. I always liked the unique style of this quirky table and planned to paint it in more of a parrot color. The Color of the Year is perfect! I washed and sanded it before painting and then for a subtle glitz, I rubbed interference mica powder in gold, green, blue, red, and violet on the bird head. It was very difficult to photograph. It is such that at first you aren't sure you saw the colors, then they become obvious as light moves over them. The table top was marred and has screws visible, so I covered it with melted marble flats. It will sit by my rocking chair on my enclosed front porch and hold my morning coffee and toast. I love how it turned out and it matches my cup and saucer!

This paint is glorious! It worked great! I am looking around for more projects.

Thanks to @imnepiphany for sharing this blue beauty with us 💙
