Ever Have a Vision??

Ever Have a Vision ??

 This is the stencil I'm looking for,  Blogger wouldnt let me add the pic to the bottom where I wanted it lol..

****************

Do any of ya'll ever get a vision in your head and you just cant let it go?  Well I do.

 Several years ago I saw a picture and mentally it Stuck.  Nothing I have seen or tried since, satisfied me.

I got my "cottagey" bedroom about half done and stopped.  There was just no need to keep going with something I knew wasnt going to work for me and besides, it was'nt even close to my Vision:)

I dont know what style its called but to me the style is Perfect.  It may take me awhile to get there, but I've decided I'd leave my room perfectly plain than substitute stuff for what I really want.

For now- I have a request.. If you know where I can find this stencil, could you please leave that information in your comment or my email addy is right under my header up top- write me..

I appreciate Ya'll so much and thank you to those who wrote me and asked if all was OK...
Some family health issues going on and I'm helping as much as I can with that as I live closest to the relative that needs extra help.  I'll write more about that later.

 

Luv n Hugs

$5.00 Lamp redo

I found this brass, swing arm lamp at goodwill for 5.00..  I hesitated for a minute cause I figured it was one of those cheapo, very light, might tip over, floor lamps..  I walked over anyway and took hold of  it and wow, it was HEAVY. So I knew it was a more expensive piece originally . Great- I'll take it. 

I stopped my lowes and bought a can of orb spray paint- gotta love that stuff.
Lampshade from walmart was waiting for me in the storage room.  Got that a few weeks before for 8 or 10,
I forget now but way cheaper than ballards:)  I did a post letting ya'll know where they were and several of ya bought some.

 Cleaned the brass- spray painted it 2 light coats and let that dry .  I dont have a doubt this lamp as it is now would have cost between 100.00 and 150.00  ..  Mine- lamp-shade-paint ,,  $22.80
Sonny is a happy girl:)  Its just what I wanted and needed and at a bargain price too.  The daughter has tried several times to swipe it for her room but I go in there and swipe it back..   I wonder if I can find another for that price..  Maybe.

Heres the link to Susan's Meta Party

as you can see I marked my photo as she suggested in this weeks post.:)
Thank Ya'll for visiting.   Life is busy for me right now and I havent been posting as much as usual but I'll make my way back here more often.
Big Hugs and Lots of Happy Wishes coming your way.
