It is easy to remember the meticulous care I took coloring the pages of a Snow White and Seven Dwarfs coloring book. As a child she was my role model, for she appeared to portray all that was good. Of course she got her Prince Charming, but so did I, the only difference was my Prince was named ARTHUR. Last summer I was thrilled when I came upon concrete statues of the storybook characters. After a little negotiation they became mine. They were in desperate need of TLC, since time, weather and lack of attention had taken their toll. With some family help they were given a complete renovation and today they are enjoyed daily for they are displayed in a solarium. No more rain, snow, wind or blow. The following pictures tell a "this was a good project for my story."
Happy and Bashful at their worst.

ReplyDeletenatasha, i came across this post because I am selling the exact version of this set of snow white and the 7 dwarfs, not sure if you were interested but I figured I would let you know if so I can post the listing
DeleteMy mother had a set like this, it was stolen. I would love to replace them. If the person from the "unknown" June/2014 post see this and still has them available i would love to make this a Christmas present!!

DeleteWhat did you do to prepare these for painting and what kind of paint did you use?
ReplyDeleteChristine thank you for viewing my Snow White post. No preparation other than sanding after patching cement. I went to a paint store and discussed my expectations after a lot of work. Keep in mind these figures are not out in N..J. weather conditions. I can look up the exact paint name. Let me know. Happy holidays
DeleteI am so so jealous. It is my dream to have a set of these. If you ever want to sell please call me, 405-664-7974
ReplyDeleteHow old is this Snow White Cement statue ? I acquired the same one at an auction for $25. Repainted her...She is beautiful <3
ReplyDeleteCan you post how much you paid for these? I have an opportunity to buy a set in very similar shape but don’t know how much is too much.
ReplyDeleteI need a bashful from this set I have the rest. Anyone know where he is hiding?
