shopping for tile
I mentioned last week that I returned the beautiful rectangular marble tile that I bought a few weeks ago for my kitchen floor. Well, here’s the full story. That beautiful rectangular tile I bought online from Home Depot was actually wall tile. I realized that after I unpacked it and threw all of the boxes away. I was […]
Patience is a virtue…
…and I know I’m really testing it! I’ve been getting a lot of “will you just sell the milk paint to me already” kind of e-mails and comments over the last couple of weeks. Here’s is why it’s taking so long… I thought it was just going to be ME selling the paint at Lucketts and […]
Say Hello to Ironstone
I’m finally getting around to introducing another Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint color… …Ironstone… What else would I call my white? For this piece, I’m so glad I finally got a lot of chipping. All white pieces aren’t really my style, so I was hoping for lots of chippiness, which I got, and […]

It was simply a matter of me totally forgetting what day of the week it was. I’m really hoping with the fall and a regular school/work schedule will come […]
my painting chair
Some people have their recliner or their rocker or their rolling desk chair. It’s a spot where they spend a lot of time and they enjoy the time they spend sitting in it. I have my painting chair. I “saved” it out of my Opa’s attic (that’s German for grandfather, in case you didn’t know.) […]
antique child’s wheelbarrow
I had such a fun time rearranging my furniture yesterday that I worked on it a little bit more today when I could manage between playing Lego Batman with the boys, laundry, trying to get my e-mail under control and acting as a wrestling referee (again with the boys.) I was shopping my house for the perfect […]
