Hello all, welcome to the weekend! I’m off to buy some primer and paint to begin on some of those thrift store finds I shared earlier in the week. Speaking of paint, I’m smitten with this oversized mural on canvas as a focal point behind the bed, or anywhere you envision large scale art. This serene version is a DIY project explained in detail at the link below.

Kate, you did a great job locating some cute spring green accents. I love that color as an accent. And I love that it has the word Spring in it. Spring can’t come soon enough!;-)
I love the list of 100 books. Good thing I already have a head start on some of them.
I love those sci-fi paintings. How fun is that! Had to call the Hubby over for that one ;)
