time to paint, I wouldn\'t worry too much about sanding but if the pieces you received need it then go ahead..I like roughness because I love Primitive look and besides I will be sanding shortly

Did you buy your acrylic paint? If larger bottle hen it will do 2 smaller, you might be pushing it to get 2 done so I\'d suggest 3, better to have more than not enough.

I usually do Primitive in 3 colors, Victorian blue, dark green and a red brown
