Pretty as a Picture ...

... that's what I thought my paints were.  So pretty & colorful, they're now [as of yesterday] spotlighted & framed as ART.  The shelves are the perfect depth ... as if they were built for this.  But they weren't.  I think this used to be a medicine cabinet.  I found it at the curb waiting for trash pick-up or a new owner, whichever came first.  I haven't had to do anything except wedge some little dowels in the holes to hold up the shelves.

I'm still working on sprucing up this 57 year old basement.  In a year or 2 or 5, we hope to finish off most of the basement ... but until then I have to work my cREaTive magic.  A little paint, goes a long way.  And luckily, there's no shortage of paint in this house.  Here's a mini tour ... [of the sections that look decent].  :)

{What you see when you come down the basement steps... I painted this little section of wall this pea green color. Leah, recognize the flowers?}

{My newest Quote Canvas ... custom request on Etsy.}

{Just on the other side of my area is where the kids play with playdough & color while they're in the basement with me.  Last week I painted the walls the same pea green color, all except for the metal beams which were left white.  The walls are cement block ... so I have to rely on magnets on the metal beams to hang things up.}

{And here is my latest sale ... sold earlier today.  I just love this color scheme.}

Hope you enjoyed your tour [of the sections of my basement that look decent]. :)
