Thyme to COOK?

Do you like to cook????
I do!


I won't be doing much cooking though
today!!
I am PAINTING!!!

I have been
 REALLY
 busy designing and painting stock for shops
This is a large
BUNCH OF CARROTS 
cut from rough sawn lumber
that I designed
They would look great on your door, porch , shed etc.
the Grungy tag says
"CaRrOtS, cArRoTs a rabbits delight

I cherish each and every bite"

I also designed these
EXTRA LARGE 
CaRrOts
They are also cut from 
rough sawn lumber
They are wired together in the center 
with
RUSTY WIRE
I added "greens" for the tops


I painted this 
BUNNY
 using
a
Renee Mullins 
design

This was a fun design to paint!


I added a homespun bow to the neck of his shirt 
and 
some twine to the 
CaRrOtS


I tied a little metal can to his hand


 I love how he came out!!!

Happy Painting!

It's THYME to blog again!!!

After a blogging break I am BACK AGAIN!!!!
I now have a STUDIO in my home
step inside and I will show you around!

My STUDIO is on the first floor of our home, 
it is heated, AC, has a bathroom and laundry in it!
All I need to do is move a bed in there and I could actually live there!!!
BUT
I had a LOT of work to do
 in order to transform it into my 
STUDIO!!!

This 
WAS 
my studio
looked like when we bought the house. 
The former owner used it as his work shop.


I decided to paint the floor
I first had to remove the carpeting and clean the floors well


I then base coated the floor
BLACK
using a roller brush


After I finished base coating the floor
BLACK

I cut a TEMPLATE 


my husband and I spent many hours on our hands and knees with a roller


BUT
it was well worth it!



I have LOTS of space!


and storage!


BEAUTIFUL
 view of our gardens and yard!



I hope you will stop by often 
to see what I have been painting!!!


You can now purchase my patterns by clicking on the tabs 
ABOVE!


Hugs,
Lynn
