TAH DAH...

I am soooo glad I painted this piece black

it really gives the room a vintage appeal, sorta

like your Victorian great granny's house.

I needed a big piece to pull it together and this TV cabinet

was the perfect piece.

I used a flat black with no finish, just the flat surface, 

not shiny...I don't like a shiny surface!

I know that many say they don't like silk flowers,

but in order for me to have a summer all winter long,

it's silks, with drieds added in.

Let me tell ya, a steaming bowl of chile tonight

will be the bomb, as I sit in my new comfy space

at the lil' pink shack...

home sweet home!

Most mysterious...

Something strange lurks in shadow...

am I tetched in the head or what,

don't answer that!

Here it is, after 9:00 PM and I'm up with the paint can,

but you know this is the way of it for us

serious nesters...right!

When a project calls...we give in...to the night!

heh heh heh...!

Bet you can't wait for the 'morrow...

me either!

Time to grunge...or not...

 I finally got my cupboard moved in, it's been in storage for years...

Remember when we had to have those cupboards for our giant TV, well,
I still have my beast, though I don't have cable TV anymore, just Netflix
and you know what, it's a great feeling...

 But, it's a little too white for me...sooooo...out comes the wash of brown paint to
grunge it up and give it that stored in the attic kinda look...right...mildew!!!
I even considered painting it black, but I'm gonna live with it for a while yet...

The TV used to sit on this ol' black trunk, but it's become a handy table  to
hold more junk...sweet huh...playing with my toys, it's the name of the game!!!

What's in your stairwell...

Collections...n funky stuff...

being a taxidermist, I have a 'thing' for strange
and since I have an odd sense of humor...

I saved the vintage wallpaper
for the lived in ancient appeal...

and filled the walls with prints of wildlife...

When I was married,
I once put a table in the hallway,
my husband threw a MAJOR hissy fit...

Freedom has it's way...
and this free spirit lives the life unchained
to stack and restack
in a lil' pink shack...

You can never cross the ocean
unless you have the courage
to lose sight of the shore...
