fancy

Hey, check out this $70 plate from www.dapperfrog.com, its sooooo cool! Although if I spent 70 bucks on a plate I'd probably only be able to afford to eat Cheetos off of it!

compelling artist

In my quest to locate some art for all the empty frames in my house I came across Daniel Egneus. He is on blogspot as http://danielegneus.blogspot.com and also the web at www.danielegneus.com. I love his use of watercolors and ink. The unfinished quality too is something I really feel, as I rarely finish projects I am working on! I also like how they look like a smattering of my own sketchbooks, combinations of doodles and masterpieces, ha! I hope you enjoy his work!

artwork that could work

This print is from www.thewildunknown.com. I could use something like this in my livingroom...I wish the little old table came with it:-).

work in progress

Our living room.

My husband bought the 52" tv on the right there, which completely overpowers my cute tv stand and also completely overpowers the whole room. Since we moved it to its current wall, the rest of the wall looked completely void. The contrast of a black tv on a very dark tv stand in front of a bright wall(its brighter in real life) is something I have had to work around. Thus the frames and cube shelves.

The issue at hand is the cream colored door and trim. When we moved in 2 years ago we painted the walls immediately but never painted the trim. I have a feeling this will continue to bother me if I do not fix it. I would like them to be bright white. The house is small and the white tends to just brighten things a bit. The frames on the wall need a load of help too. I have more to hang but not much to fill them. I need to compile some art and photos. I'll add it to the list!

Fridays- I love you!

Its Friday! I don't have a Monday through Friday, 9-5 job in the traditional sense, but when the end of the week comes and my accounting classes are completed and my husband is home for the weekend, the adventures can begin!

I am just dying for some spring weather, with a foot of snow on the ground still, I fear its a long time coming. A formerly local artist, named Dolan Geiman, has created beautifully springtime art. Visit www.dolangeiman.com to learn more about him and enjoy the art below, its all by him!

These look like a project I'd like to attempt, no doubt with less amazing results, I need to look through my pile of "cool" junk...
