If this wall could talk.....

It would say, "thank you for painting me....FINALLY."

I found a new bedspread and had bought the wall paint to paint the wall behind my bed since last November. I've wanted to paint the design for ages. It finally all came together this weekend. Take a look..



Here's a close-up view.



I also put up new antique-lace curtains.



It's such a good feeling....one more thing I can cross off my list of
things to do.

Dorothy,

It's beautiful, Dorothy! The gold stenciling is beautiful. Hmmmm. You have me thinking....

Your bedroom has a cozy feel and I have always enjoyed lace curtains in the bedroom. Very Victorian and dreamy...

Good Job!

Hi Mary....Oh...it's not a stencil. I hand painted it.
It took me about 4 hours to do it.

Thanks for your sweet comments!!!
I'm so glad to have that job finished though.

Dorothy, it is just gorgeous!!! I think the reason it looks like a stencil in a way, is because you did such a fabulous job on it, it looks so perfect. It is just lovely.

Dorothy thank you for linking your friend to my blog..I do hope she introduces herself to me and gives me some tips on where to stop on route back home through her
"enchanting state" of New Mexico!!
We've always wanted to spend time there and now I know why after driving through it on route to AZ!!
Stay tuned for more images of this sunny state!! hugs NG
