BEAUTIFYING THE HOME!

WINTER IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE FAST SO I DECIDED TO PAINT SOME WALLS. I FOUND THIS BEAUTIFUL BROWN FOR MY BATHROOM. I LOVE THE BROWN. IT IS VERY WARM AND COZY. I SWITCHED THE TOWELS AND RUGS TO A DEEP BROWN TOO. I ACCENTED WITH THE CHEETAH PATTERN. URRGG!(WHAT DOES A CHEETAH SAY)HAD TO SWITCH THE CANDLES TO A BROWN TOO. I SPEND A LOT OF TIME IN THIS TUB, SO NOW IT WILL BE EVEN MORE ENTICING.

I SAW A GREEN AT A FRIENDS HOUSE THAT I LOVED. MIKE IS NOT A FAN OF GREEN SO OF COURSE I SUPRISED HIM WITH GREEN WALLS IN THE ENTRY WAY AND THE HALL INTO OUR BEDROOM. THE PICTURES DON'T DO IT JUSTICE. I DECIDED NOT TO OVER WHELM MIKE SO I DIDN'T DO TOO MANY WALLS.
I FELT LIKE I NEEDED TO DRAW THE GREEN INTO THE OTHER WALL SO I STENCILED THIS SCROLL OVER THE FRONT DOOR.
I LOVED IT, BUT THEN THE WALL ON THE SIDE OF IT NEEDED A LITTLE TOUCH SO I STENCILED THIS SAYING ON THIS WALL. I PUT THE GREEN AWAY FOR NOW. I LIKE HOW IT ALL TURNED OUT AND MIKE IS HAPPY WITH IT. HE PROMISED THAT HE WONT BE NAUSEATED.
THE OLD GROUND HOG SAW HIS SHADOW, SO I GUESS I HAVE SIX MORE WEEKS, BEFORE STARTING YARD WORK, SO I THINK I WILL DO THE MAIN FLOOR BATHROOM WITH THE BROWN AND ACCENT IT WITH A AQUA BLUE. I LOVE NEW COLOR IN MY HOME. IT MAKES IT LOOK FRESH AND CLEAN!

I love the colors- beautiful- and the stencils. You do such great work. The pretty lettering on your wall reminded me that I need to add Allison to the awesome family wall hanging that you made me. I love it and I get compliments on it all the time!
