There once was a sofa…a sweetheart of a gal, who loved denim. Her favorite skirt was denim too…with a bit of tassel and fluff. Can you catch a peek? (Plain to see she is a cottage farm gal, what high society folk call~unpretentious. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet
Here is a little sitting area, at our home, ”The Painted Nest”. We use it mostly as a place to put on and take off our shoes. The chair, a vintage flea market find for $2.00, was in bad shape visually, but quite sound, structurally. So, The Muse was quick to grab this treasure! Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

I have had loads of fun….the cupboards are actually now attached to the wall! And I adore the barn red paint glaze I made. For some added interest…I am toying with wood braid/twist molding. Do you like it? This little section is going to do something very special…it will hold a coffee maker… And we all know what an important appliance that is (don’t we)? LOL Did you like this?

YOU …. YES, YOU !!!! Have been captured… Don’t be alarmed… Stay Calm. For these robots mean you no harm… They exude kindness, chivalry and charm. They simply need a test subject, you see… Someone to travel in their “WHAT IF MACHINE”.

~One Little Closet To Rule Them All~
Oooops! Forgot to take a true BEFORE~. But close your eyes and imagine the closet without the rich blue… Ok, that was easy enough! As you can see…the closet, all white, needed a serious design lift. So, out came the paint brushes and the paint. In the Muse’s cottage, if you stand still, long enough you are apt to get painted (that is simply a legend…a fable~one that has some basis of truth). lol Did you like this? Share it:Tweet
