dealing with the decorating hand you’ve been dealt

lots of us start out with hand-me-downs and mis-matched furniture.  and if you’re like me, you’re STILL living with hand-me-downs and the mis-matched odd-ball pieces that fill your home.

like any artist I want to paint WHEN I want, HOW I want, and WHAT I want.

however, I also really appreciate how practical art can be. how it can make everything make sense with a few brush strokes.  paint has been my decorating saving grace.

next time you walk into a room and feel defeated by all your mis-matched oddball pieces,  consider a custom painting that can bring all those things together

and let you say with confidence ” yeah. I meant to do that”

we got a new comforter. not the one I would pick, but it was 5 dollars, so here’s how I’m  making it work without having to buy new pillows, curtains, and repaint all the walls
