Pale Daffodil Paint Pretty

This is the room prior to any work being done. It was orginally done in these colours for Lily. When she was really little she loved frogs, so this is the colours she chose with a frog border running along the top of the paint. Looked cute for a time, but it needed a change.

In all her primed splendor.


This is the colour I decided upon. It is Behr's Pale Daffodil. I really like it. Hopefully I'm as happy with the finished product. Crossing my fingers.


Here is the final coat of paint. I had a hard time getting the accurate colour with the camera. I find looking at the pic it appears to have a bit of a greenish hue to it, but not when in the room.

All done with the paint now except for the cleaning of supplies and getting it out of my hair. I make painting a full body sport. Now to find the time and funds to get it decorated and cleaned out of all the stuff stored in there. The work will end eventually. If I keep telling myself that, I'm sure at one point it will come true.

The title of my blog pretty much says it all - Passion, Obsession or Insanity! I think I had better just quit everything else in life, become a recluse and stitch my days away. That would just about finish up my current starts and to heck with anything else I've ever wanted to stitch. Someone, anyone please help me stop the insanity! I beg of you, please.

Wildflower Rhapsody - Paula Vaughan

I started this today, for WIP # 14. I'm not supposed to be starting anything new however I think some rules are made for the sole purpose of breaking them, and that is definitely the case in this situation.

I didn't want to be bothered with counting up and over to start in the top left corner, which is my preference, so I'm smack dab in the middle. AUUUUUGH Those flowers. Those colour changes. Why is it I have to love Paula Vaughan like I do? Her pieces are incredible and the finished product is worth every minute and every floss change, but sometimes.....

I've so far logged about 4+ hours, so a few more minutes and I'll be back to Love for another 10 hours.
