Spirit Of Christmas at The Warehouse & other stuff
Been a busy week
I pulled my friend Allie in to help me.
Butterflies and fish decoupage all week.

We were just teaching ourselves to paint and decorate furniture.

That's my son Jay and I outside Liberty ...that little boy is now 40! |
anyway ...we made the transition in just about 20 years!

But they are surprisingly popular
The first one we ever did?
yep...wound up in one of the most prestigious interior magazines on the planet.
I know...crazy hey?
and ever since they have been spotted in magazines over here
