I have an IDEA to paint our condo lanai wall

Pin It

OK, I love to decorate and  I've decided to do the wall in our lanai. This is the wall, I like the canvas...... BUT, it needs to fill the entire wall. So, off to pinterest I go, my boards are here, if you would like to follow me

This is the wall BEFORE,

I measured the wall, took a picture and started planning everything out.

A trip to Lowe's and I have my background color (see left side), I went with, Valspar Signature Paint, a flat interior
Mark Twain Gray Brick, not a paid advertisement, but should be, 



I can do it and if I like it? 
Don't like it, I paint the wall all Mark Twain Gray Brick and re-hang the picture. 

Off to start drawing it out on the wall and get the basic gray on, let the fun begin

Graduation Quilt from 2000

Pin It

Graduation Quilt from 2000
When both of our boys graduated from high school, I did a quilt for them to take to college. It was all the thing at the time, and may still be, to do a t-shirt quilt. To me, the boys needed my quilts.

The quilt was machine pieced and long-arm quilted in spring 2000. It's the quilt they curl up under and watch television with still today !
