I hear the beat to a different drummer, obviously. My daughters don't like my decorating style, but guess who does--ME! I LOVE the color red and wanted to paint a wall in my family room, but didn't want to spend an arm an leg for paint. So,,,,, I went to the Habitat-Restore and bought a gallon of Colonial Red for $5.00. My husband and I almost divorced over painting that wall. It was a lot of work. lol
This window frame I found at a yard sale for $.10. I painted it white and got this delightful tissue paper at a discount store, I think it was Ross, but not sure. I glued it to the opposite side of the frame, it doesn't look like it here, but it matched perfectly I love the white against the red.
I wish I had a before picture of this 100 year old "hoosier cabinet" . It had 4 coats of paint, white and mint green were among the two that I remember. It took me 3 months of off and on stripping to get all the paint off. I placed sentimental things that belonged to both mine and my husband's grandparents on the shelves. It serves as a shrine to honor the wisdom and the good lives of some wonderful, loving people.
