I figured it’s high time for a giveaway, and what better time than the month of May!
This competition giveaway is for AUSTRALIAN RESIDENTS only.
I will offer future competition giveaways for international subscribers, but for this one, it’s for the locals.
Here’s the deal:
I’ll be giving away the following to one lucky winner who meets the entry criteria outlined further down.
2 x Miss Mustard Seed Milk Paint samples in May’s Colour of the Month: Eulalie’s Sky and Linen
1 x MMSMP Small Natural Bristle Paint Brush
1 x MMSMP Milk Paint Mixer
PLUS a bonus Antique replica Canning label from my Great Grandfather’s collection from his cannery.
There’s a few different ways you can enter, and it should be self explanatory, but let me know if you have any questions!
I’d love to hear how some of you would use this makeover package! Here are a few ideas … paint a few matching frames, paint a small coffee table, paint a sign for a room in your house. Try a few different techniques: eg. blending colours, layering the two colours, creating a custom colour. So many choices!!

May 11, 2014 at 6:06 pmI would love to do a Hutch as I so regret selling Mums’ when she passed last year. The family was in a state of shock, everything done at the time was just a blur.

May 8, 2014 at 6:30 pmI have a coffee table and a dining room table that I’m going to stain the top dark and paint the apron and legs. The coffee table first and if I do well, the dining room table to follow.
admin
May 9, 2014 at 5:20 pmTracey, that sounds like a great idea. I love the wood look on top with painted bottom. I am hanging out to get to my dining table !!

May 8, 2014 at 6:37 pmI would love to try this paint! I follow Marions blog but have been using chalk paint up until now, and think that MMSMP will give another look to the Frnch Provincial style furniture I restore…
admin
May 9, 2014 at 5:19 pmThat’s great Alison. I’ve been using chalk paint too and still use both for different purposes. Marion’s paint certainly does add a whole new level of endless possible finishes and outcomes, it really is a fun product to work with.

May 8, 2014 at 6:44 pmI just love the look of these paints! I have a lovely set of drawers I would love to do in the eulalies sky! Can’t wait!!
admin
May 9, 2014 at 5:18 pmEulalies Sky is one of my fav colours in the MMSMP range, Tiarni. don’t forget to take before and after pics. I’d love to see what you end up doing with them.

May 8, 2014 at 7:19 pmSo looking forward to learning how to create this look – I have a few mirror frames just waiting for this project.
admin
May 9, 2014 at 5:16 pmMirror frames will be lovely. Are they ornate ones with lots of detail? You could try using the dark wax in the crevices for authentic aged look.

May 8, 2014 at 7:27 pmI would like to use the paint to paint a frame to make a beautiful blackboard.
admin
May 9, 2014 at 4:45 pmSue, that’s a fun idea. Frames are great to do! With just a sample pack of MMSMP, I’ve been able to paint a whole bunch of frames. They make great noticeboards in a bedroom or kitchen, or great photo props too.
Gillian
May 8, 2014 at 7:57 pmI want to paint over my pink chester drawers with Eulalies hoping the milk paint naturally flakes off showing patches of the pink paint underneath. I’ve used missmustardseeds milk paint before but with her bonding agent. It would be fun to try something different.
admin
May 9, 2014 at 4:43 pmGreat idea Gillian. Eulalie’s over pink sounds really pretty!
Jacqui Unwin
May 8, 2014 at 8:16 pmI have purchased a really yellowed 4 door pine buffet that I am going to paint the body of in milk paint and rub back the top to re-stain and wax! Should bring it back to life and give it an amazing new life! Thanks for the chance to win the products to go on this adventure.
admin
May 9, 2014 at 4:43 pmOh Jacqui, that sounds like a great project! Anything in orangey pine NEEDS to be painted … just sayin’. And I love the wood top stained look.
Brooke
May 8, 2014 at 8:57 pmI have a beautiful 1950’s dresser passed on by my late nana that I would love to update with these beautiful paints.
admin
May 9, 2014 at 4:41 pmSounds lovely Brooke! I’d love to see that dresser. Don’t forget to take before and after pics!
Jessie
May 8, 2014 at 10:06 pmI have a play kitchen from when I was a child that I want to do up for my daughters 2nd birthday. Would love to have a play with this product and maybe use it on that 🙂
admin
May 9, 2014 at 4:40 pmGreat idea Jessie! What a perfect birthday present that would be.
Clare Milne
May 8, 2014 at 10:11 pmI’m dying to give milk paint a go! I have a lot of pieces I’d like to use it on but the first would be my old wooden meat safe!
admin
May 9, 2014 at 4:39 pmOo, I love old meat safes! Sounds lovely Clare.
Penny Britza
May 9, 2014 at 2:54 pmI have several pieces that I’ve been looking at for a long time…waiting on inspiration…an antique and very unusual small cupboard originally from England would be my next project I think. I’ve just literally today painted my son’s wardrobe in flow blue. First time to use Miss Mustard Seeds Milk Paint…So far, I’m liking it…it’s an exciting undertaking!
admin
May 9, 2014 at 4:39 pmThat’s great Penny. I love using MMSMP. Sounds like you have some lovely projects up your sleeve!
Tracey Bradshaw
May 9, 2014 at 9:01 pmI have a few (a lot) of rescued treasures waiting in the wings for their time to shine again. At the top of my list is an old tea trolley with metal castors that has 2 large removable trays and a folding frame – MMSMP the frame and edges of the trays with a gorgeous coordinating paper under polyurethane to finish the off. So hard to choose, there is a little narrow cupboard that I’d love to paint in a soft shade and stain the top and shelf.
Now I’m getting motivated to pull out some new projects!
admin
May 12, 2014 at 9:02 pmSounds like you’re building a great “to do” list there, Tracey! It is quite addictive!

Kay
May 10, 2014 at 9:23 pmI have been following Miss Mustard Seed’s blog for a while now and used her awesome tutorial when painting my kitchen cabinets white. I would love to try Eulalie’s Sky on my young daughter’s dressing table and Linen to highlight the moldings on the drawers.
admin
May 12, 2014 at 9:00 pmSounds lovely Kay. These colours together are beautiful.
Jane
May 10, 2014 at 11:52 pmI would love to finish a chair in Eulalie’s Sky. I started one and then my 3 yr old drew on it with texta. Rubbing off the texta, rubbed off some on the paint. So it would look so much better with a fresh coat!
admin
May 12, 2014 at 9:01 pmAh, no, not the texta! Nice coat of paint for a new look chair is in order then! Ha ha.
Rebekah
May 12, 2014 at 9:44 pmI would love to try out these paints on a mirror frame and matching louvered side panels
admin
May 13, 2014 at 6:33 pmOo great idea. Love the idea of louvered side panels.
Karen
May 13, 2014 at 10:45 amHmmmm, what wouldn’t I makeover with MMS paint?!? I think I’d paint just about anything with it but I have an old hutch with stained glass and rippled glass doors that match Eulalies Sky so I’d probably do that one 🙂
Really must get busy again and order some MMS milk paint now we can get it in Australia!
admin
May 13, 2014 at 6:34 pmI know!! Love that we have it here now. Visit my product page for our range available.
Christy
May 13, 2014 at 7:04 pmI have used another brand of milk paint and would love to give MMS a try on a bookcase.
admin
May 14, 2014 at 11:51 amGood on you Christy! I use all kinds of furniture paints. MMSMP happens to be one of my favourites if you can’t already tell.

May 14, 2014 at 10:41 amI am friends with The Whimsical Wife (blogger) and first saw Miss Mustard Seeds blog through her website. I love love love Miss Mustard Seeds home and have recently moved into home of my own which I am dying to decorate. I am hoping to use Miss Mustard Seeds Milk Paint to savvy up lots of pieces of furniture and little nick-nacks I have laying around. I have my paintbrush waiting!
admin
May 14, 2014 at 11:54 amI know, Shauna, isn’t her home a dream? Would love to have mine look half as nice someday! And oh my goodness, thank you for introducing me to The Whimsical Wife! Where has she been all my blogging life!! Love it.

May 14, 2014 at 9:13 pmI love this paint and the effects of painting with it. I would love to paint some shelves and frames in 2 layers of colours.

May 15, 2014 at 5:47 amI have a couple of pieces in mind, a queen anne coffee table and a telephone table and I’d like to try some different techniques
Di
May 15, 2014 at 9:21 pmI’ve not used milk paint before but would love to do so. Have a desk that I would love to breathe new life into and milk paint could be exactly what I need to do this. 🙂
Karen
May 15, 2014 at 9:59 pmI have wanted to try this for so long! But oh my goodness that little antique can is way too cute to use for mixing paint. Would have to put it on my shelf (that has been restored with miss mustard seed paint of course)
