My Love of Painted Furniture from the 1930's!!!!!

I am a sucker for old painted furniture with

flowers and flourishes....

In my Massachusetts guest room I have small painted tables

on each side of the bed.

I'm not into sweet and pretty.....

I'm into old and fabulous!!!!!

A little dirty.....

A little beat up.....

Lot's of experience.....

Not that I'm projecting or anything..........

I had these two little tables, and they just fit perfectly into the dormer bay of the guest room.....

I wish I could take a class in how to paint flowers.

I'm a rotten artist, and have 

floral painter's envy.

That's a new psychological disorder I just invented!!!!!

I keep staring at these, thinking.....

all I need are the right brushes and techniques.....

SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!!

I don't expect to be able to paint like the artist on the bookcase.....

But there must be some type of remedial

 Betsy Painting Class

out there?????

For this type of flower.....

Maybe an online course?????

A painting flowers for dummies book?????

On another note!!!!

I read in the Wall Street Journal this morning that floral chintz may be coming back!!!!!

It's about #$% TIME!!!!!!!

These patterns are classics for a reason, people!!!!

I mean....

sheesh!!!!!

The styles of the past few years have really fried my goat!!!!

Pretty is called pretty for a reason!!!!!

Because it's pretty!!!!!

On a different note.....

I'm so pleased you all seemed to like the monogrammed toile apron.

I will only have sponsors on my blog that I would use personally.

So, just a short little post, to make up for the give-a-way blog yesterday that didn't have any of my

fabulouso decorating in it!!!!

Later, Gator
