I'm sort of afraid that I've built this up so much in my head that it won't be like I picture it in my head! EVERYTHING Matt has done I'm tickled pink with and couldn't be happier. Now that it's time to decorate...I'm afraid! ;-) You all are probably sick of hearing about the nook at this point too! SORRY! Anyway, wanted to show you, I took some old frames and some goodwill frames and some antique frames and painted them flat white to unify the look. I don't know if all of these photos are staying in the frames there are a couple I KNOW I'm not leaving in. 2 of the frames are from Ikea so they are a slightly different white. So these are some of the things that will be on the walls. Plus I drew a Robin this morning (I copied it a quite a bit from the Robin drawing I have in the foyer), if I get brave enough, I may paint that right above the built in book shelf that doesn't have shelves yet in this photo. For years, we had a squirrel I painted above our laundry room door. (We had a baby one when I was little!) I don't know, we'll see. I really want the goodness on the walls to be representive of US and who we are and what we like. I hope I haven't bored you all!

Dear, dear, Robyn...
With the name Robyn I would think you would love birds and so did your Mother who named you!
I had a Friend her name was Robyn and she opened a shop and Called it..."Robyn's Nest"
I just loved it with the logo being a bird on a nest :)
You make take anything with you that inspires you from my bolg:)
I am flattered that you would want to!
I also paint the signs with birds on them and inspirational words that tug at an emotion or two :)
Go check out my signs and side bar art posted.
I am going back to check out your works of art on your blog as well.
Keep inspiring us with your passion for birds as well.

Bore me...not a chance! I love seeing how others live. Your mosaic is beautiful. I love the robin idea, the sketch is amazing. Great job! The nook is going to be so cool.

And I wish you could have gone to FC with me too!
thanks so much for your comment! =)
Your nook is going to look fab! The Robin you drew is beautiful!
I love everything you've got going here, especially the light fixture. Very cool!
I like your idea about the paint on these letters. They are pretty cool by themselves, but I thought i might play around with some of them.
So glad you joined in today.
