The carrot…

One of the great things about being an artist is being able to do crafty things around the house. We recently completed some renovating. During the process I ended up having to paint several rooms. Painting rooms is not exactly my idea of fun. But, obviously painting is something that I can do to save a few bucks. So, the “carrot at the end of the stick’ for me was to also do some little projects that I have wanted to do for years..

Soooo, placemats and a floor cloth for the kitchen…

…coordinating,  painted plates above the kitchen sink… (My sister did the beautiful stained glass!!!)

A floorcloth for the foyer…  and another for the adjacent bathroom…

I was really pleased with the floorcloths and the effect it created in my home. I would love to take about a month and paint a really large one for my sunporch and front foyer! (Maybe one day!!!) For now, it is back to my real job… painting pictures!
