Inspiration down to the very fine detail

I have found an artist who makes me want to live in her artwork! The perfect colors and the very fine detail that is in every piece of her art is simply amazing and beautiful. If you haven't visited this shop you are in for a sweet surprise!

I'm sharing a few of my favorites, but every time I peek into her shop I can't choose. I love them all! Enjoy! www.janethillstudio.etsy.com

In the mood for.....painting

I really have spring fever! It's a pretty day again here. Temps in the 60's.I've been trying to get the house clean and I'm in the mood for change! Last spring I painted my front staircase. I painted the dark wood a distressed white.I loved how it turned out.It was the best thing I could have done! With three kids the distressed look is perfect! The more scratches and bings the better! It was simple to do too! I just liquid sanded the steps.NO priming. I painted them a white color and then sanded them down. Believe it or not you can never see the dust! Anyways thought I would share with you my steps! I have distressed barn wood frames going up my wall on the staircase and it goes well.So anyways I'm thinking of painting my kitchen chairs an olive green color. The swatch is on the chair. I think that's my next project!I'll let you know how they come out!
