THANKFUL FOR MY NEW HOUSE
AND
MY NEW "ART"/GUEST ROOM


              I love, love my desk area, it has my favorite things




My desk came from a great old house and I centered my favorite pictures and the TV on the wall

                                           
           And do you see my chair setting in front of the desk?
                                         
        Anne Sloane Paris Gray Paint, Olde White and Grain Sacks
 Oh my...how much fun and beautiful did these turn out...I painted and waxed...my good friend from The Pink House upholstered with my GRAIN SACKS...love them
                                                        Oh yes details of the desk
                                                                    Loving my secretary...my favorite elements clocks, baby shoes, butter pats and books


 My favorite frame and picture I made from Jeannie Oliver's last class...The freedom to be ME... the beautiful little hands our my grandson's Ro.
