Snowplace like home...

All moved in and internet back on. This is part of our new yard with potting shed. I really want to paint on the back a mini mural this spring and hang my flowers to dry.. The Fairy Potting Shed how fun....no new artwork, am itching to paint or sew. Working on a doll face sketch, could be used as a primdoll or painting. Zoom is a little primitive nook I created in what will be my craft/sewing room. I am a big fan of primitive because I dislike most manufactured new goods. Some of the dolls are handmade by me, along with prim xmas stocking. When I paint in primitive I use walnut ink, I love good and grungy prim dolls, again with walnut ink/coffee or tea stain muslin, vanilla extract and cinnamon baked in oven. Still need to get a decent pic of front of house. Built in 1897. Planning to repaint paneling in room. Antique red on top half, add a antique white painted chair railing center of full room walls. Paint pale yellow on bottom half of walls. Cannot wait till spring.. when the yard sales start up again. Will be looking for old chairs, cupboard, doors, and tables. All wood shelving hanging on top half of walls will be painted antique white. I also dislike mis matched wood tones, but figure any dark color furniture placed in room will blend with the yellow painted bottom walls. Gotta make or buy some county curtains, I love vintage lace but the curtains up now are not working LOL...
