RINGO STARR is in the HOUSE

Well, I did it, I promised myself I would start working on my Beatle's Yellow Submarine Chairs and I finished Chair #1 --- RINGO

I'm just so thrilled with this and look forward to working on GEORGE next.


Stay tuned!



Oh, and I finished my second Penguin a week or two ago, here he is.

Finished a project for Christmas

Happy to report I finished a project for Christmas.

Bob and I were in Value Village one day and I was lucky to find an unpainted Sleigh.

I quickly purchased it for $7.99 plus tax and here is what I painted.

I love it so much, I'm doing another one on a Cupboard door with a blue/grey/purple background so stay tuned for the results when I'm done that in a few weeks. Darn work gets in the way. lol

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH - I finished a Project In My New House

Well, you gotta love this!!

We bought a house in and moved in at the beginning of Sept. and then got married on the 20th! LOL We're two wild and crazy people!

In our new house we have a designated art room!! This gives me a chance to work on items and close the door when we are done so the kitties can't go in and make a mess. lol

So, here we go, this is my newest HOME project!

I had purchased a table at a yard sale and we use to keep our video tapes on it. It was just plain wood.

So, I decided to paint it black.

And then I had to decide what to paint on it. I made the decision to paint our favourite Nintendo Wii characters on it and this is how it turned out. :)

I'm really thrilled with the way it turned out!!! It's currently in the basement with a sealer on it and I'm just waiting for it to dry. :o) What do you think? Bob loves it!! Yaaay!!

PS: The little Stuffed Rabbid, I purchased at this store: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5641688 by Catsicle :o)

UPDATE

Sorry gang for being away so long.

Lots to catch up on, unfortunately no piccies at this time.

We decided to sell Bob's house and buy a new one which we'll be moving into August 30, 2008 -- it's a whole new canvas for us. The house is MUCH bigger then Bob's old house. We're going to take our time redecorating as we now have to adjust to a budget. lol

We have ALSO decided to get married - which will happen September 20, 2008 so no doubt there will be a lot to show from that once it happens.

Once we are settled, we'll get back into the swing of things and I'll start painting again. Yaaay!

Thanks for hanging in there and stay tuned.

Oh, well, I guess while you are waiting you can click this link to a fellow blogger/friend Karyn who took some practice photo's for Bob and I as she and her man Joe have volunteered to do pictures for us for the wedding since we aren't hiring a photographer. You see, Bob and I are paying for this wedding ourselves, so the budget is very tight.

ENJOY!
