RED BUD HALL

I guess I just can't help it

I'm a theme decorator

are you?

I have one word

L.A.Z.Y.

yes...when I was painting this little hallway I did not paint the wood

I just wasn't sure I wanted to and besides sooner or later these doorways will be open arches 

so it was kind of pointless to go to all the trouble

it's like wood trim is unending when you're painting it

but I came across this 

and got inspired

and I was tired of looking out my window to see 

this

so I got inspired more

 to create something pretty and take my mind off that ugly view

 my favorite tree

(this is a pastel from Amy Winton P.S.A.)

my favorite tree is the Red Bud Tree

I love the heart shaped leaves and red flowers

Thank you for a great sale 

Cross Bottle Guy

Thank you friend Linda for this beautiful atomizer

other red bud trees

I painted this when I was in the 2nd grade

love the colors of this cross I bought in Taos

and if my house has one cross it has 400

I google translated words like "linens" to French

French words are so pretty

just hand painted in my own writing in gold paint

This says:

of all the jewels in my possession by far my favorite are

my family

the back of the door lists all the gems I could think of like

diamond, ruby, pearl 

my great grandmother's and my grandmother's vases

don't forget the ceiling is 1/5 of the room

this little niche looks kind of plain, but not too plain with all the added color in the art work

The Red Bud Hall leads into two guest bedrooms and 2 guest baths

I thought it was ok to make it sort of a feminine entry

Kind of sweet don't you think?
