I also sent this sofa off to be reupholstered! It was one of my Ebay finds and I am having it done in the palest flax linen...
I did my fall wardrobe freshen up at Target. You guys, they have some awesome basics there - this camel blazer and red cords came home with me and were only $20 bucks each!
I have been working on a painting for my sis' house - still have three or four layers to go, but it is coming out great with a lot of depth. If you want to do the same thing, I suggest laying down a solid layer of color, then scraping on sections with a palette knife, then brushing on layers of watered down paint, etc.. - in other words using a different technique and texture each layer so you get lots of dimension...

how big is the rug/ could it be shipped?
Hi, Heather - It is about 5'6" wide x 10' long - you know the turkish and moroccans are never standard sizes! I am asking a grand for it though - the colors are insane and unique. I could wrap it in plastic and UPS it...

I love that rug! Wish I could get it over here!
Can't wait to see the sofa and is that Beth of Chinoiserie Chic you're talking about!? Can't wait to see that space! I love chinoiserie!
Love the painting and am appreciative of the advice. Hubs is buying me an easel as I want to start to dabble. I do lots of pen and ink, but haven't done much in the way of painting.

Kecia - a friend of mine who owns an art gallery sold me that heavy lucite easel and it keeps me painting! Anytime I see something I like online I try to copy it. My CC client is local, I just couldn't think of another name for them!

Oh I am sooo excited to see what you do next! But I love that rug and am sad you're selling it!
