December Winner

December Winner

 and a Rescue

Gwen was the lucky winner of the December painting

 of an Osprey.   

 I took the photo for reference in Naples, FL.

Heading back there real soon.

I give away a painting every month,

so scroll back up to the top of this page

to the right and sign up to win the January painting.

If you've already signed up once,

you're in.

Now for the rescue.

I bought a set of wooden canisters from the 50's or 60's

at an auction a few months ago.

I brought them home and cleaned them up and then 

repainted them.

I gave them to my granddaughter Kelsie

for her hope chest.  She's a college student and has been collecting things for her own home for several years.

They look white but they're almost a taupe

and the little knobs on the top are white.

Then I added some chalk board stickers.

I think they are so cute.

Paint is the cheapest way to transform anything

and these wooden canisters went from barely wanted,

to really cute.

This was the vision
