Shabby Spring Table

Dear Blogging Friends

This is my end table at the end of the sofa where I sit and the last piece of furniture that hasn't been painted in the living room.  I chalk painted the table, you can see the before and after and I'm happy I painted the table.  All the pretty flowers you see are blooming in my yard right now a beautiful sight to see, true Spring!  I am proud to say I planted everything you see accept the dogwood, it came with the house.  It's funny how you grow attached to even your plants and trees waiting for them to bloom and mature each year sort of like children.

Enjoy your Spring days!

Friday Goodwill Find:Boy With Rabbit

Dear Blogging Friends

I am happy to share a wonderful Friday Goodwill Find that is so pretty and I love prints with children. " Boy With Rabbit " is by Sir Henry Raeburn (RA) Royal Academy of Arts, British Painter 1814.  A FGW find at $7.97 yellow, of course not the color of the week. But such a pretty shabby print, I white washed the frame to clean up some scratches. I made the lace egg which compared to some I have posted on Pinterest I am ashamed of, Jeanne d'Arc eggs are gorgeous!  If you are looking for Easter inspiration take a moment to look at my Easter board.  The roses you have seen in previous post and the book I painted and wrote the title of the print.

Stay tuned, more rabbits to come.

Off The Wall Spring Table

Dear Blogging Friends

Thank you for stopping by.  As promised the beginnings of my Spring table that literally came off my dining walls.  The chargers on the table set the stage for Spring with leaf chargers.  A stack of pitchers with a nest and egg at the top with Mama bird always keeping watch.  The beautiful rose picture is the centerpiece of the table.  I set the table to change up as Spring goes into Summer, how fun right!  Also, my foody, loaded deviled eggs, the eggs died pink, with a bunny with attitude!

Stay tuned!
