The end to a Crazy Week!

They called for snow starting last night - I just woke up and ran to the window as soon as I opened my eyes
THERE'S NO SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well not yet anyway - we're mid April - can't believe I'm having this conversation.

An update on my week .............

Found myself finished at April's - so while she was out I redid her mantel....................

Who do I think I am?  I mean really - I was only there to paint her furniture - it's none of my business to go around her home and change things up LMHO......................


The chairs aren't done yet ( the fabric hasn't arrived )  but so far the room has gone from this


to this - love love love her chandelier................


I'm almost finished this lady




and her twin daughters


New Craigs List find - we picked it up last night ( from an I WANNA live there Wednesday kind of house ) wish I'd brought my camera
Can you imagine going to pick up a piece of furniture - and saying to the person - " If you don't mind - I'm just going to do a quick walk through and take some photos ? " LMHO
anyway - I can lift furniture - I'm pretty strong - but this baby?  Uh Uh - no way - we had to call my son to
come help...............it was in the cellar - with a narrow staircase - and then - because the house is on a hill - there's another outside stair case or 2 till you actually get to the parking landing - .solid - antique - gorgeous piece - just waiting for my paintbrush!
She also has an antique brass doll's bed - we'll see if I end up with it - but it's pretty spectacular.


I finally changed this - which sat around forever


to this ( and it was gone in 2 days ) I'm doing a post next week on the Power of Grey in my world..........


and that's why I haven't had time to show the technique to do this


but I HAVEN'T forgotten.................
it WILL come.

A table set got " tweaked " as well - it's being picked up tonight.
IF we don't get a blizzard.
In the middle of April.


And that's sort of how my week went -

Have a great Friday all!
Much love,
