The two things I’m asked the most about are my blue & white curtains and my cow painting (Eulalie.)  First, the curtains.

I made them a couple of years ago out of Sun-n-Shade fabric by Waverly called Tucker Resist Chambray with $5 white twin sheets as lining.  Confession – I’ve never hemmed them and I’m at peace with that.  In fact, I have a bad habit of not hemming my drapes.  Anyway, I change around a lot of things in my house, but I have not grown tired of these curtains and they end up in a lot of my photo shoots.  I posted a tutorial on making them HERE.

 And yes…Eulalie the cow.  I wrote a post quite a while ago about a cow painting I loved and wished for one of my own.  An amazingly talented artist, Cindy Austin, who happened to read my blog, offered to paint me one.  She sent some photos as inspiration and we agreed on this majestic cow resting in a field.  Cindy painted the piece in colors to complement my home and I absolutely love it.  It’s an original oil painting, but you can buy a giclee print of it in Cindy’s Etsy shop.  (This isn’t a sponsored post, I just love supporting her.)

If there was a fire and all of my family was safe, I would want to rescue Eulalie.

And that says a lot.
