ok f'art heads..

i am working on an etsy shop to start selling paintings.

lemme ask you..

if you want to buy them i want to know what sizes you are into.

my favorite size to do is 30 x 30.

i LOVE the shape, it's a total square.

but i'll do any size (whore).

and i will obv. do commissions.

if you have a spot in your house that needs something pretty let me know..

we can customize the colors and everything!!

i love you all for your support.

really.

also i got this this morning, for fiona's room ($45):

progress people!

f'art

 your final turd'cap is coming..

in the meantime gnaw on this new painting..

it's real pretty in person.

lonny delights

 the whole thing was ass kicking..

but this was my favorite:

love love love love love love love love love

so creamy!

even though i would run faster than madonna from hydrangeas to snatch those wordy crown pillows off that couch and burn them to the ground.

also..

thank you a lot for all the advice yesterday.

some really good stuff in there.

i am for sure going to paint the inside black and lady meares has sold me on a screen.

but i might actually give the painted logs a try since i have so many MFing logs.

why not right?

i will totes take pictures for you and then punch myself in the face for saying "totes".

and lastly..

i have something awesome to share with you and i cannot share it with you yet.

HAHAHAAHAHAHAAAA HA HA HA AH HHHAAAA!!!!!!!!

go read lonny if u haven't. 

p.s. for even more of the home above go here

well if it isn't monday...

that is my fireplace.

it doesn't work.

yesterday i moved all that wood out to the wood pit in the back yard bc i am done with wood. 

primarily bc it's not cute wood and the hole is really shallow so logs stick out awkwardly.

now i need to shove something else into it's hole.

i have gathered some images for inspiration and i want you to either choose from them or remind of something else that's even more awesome...

copper piss pot?

hmm..this ain't 1604.

shell and bust?

i like it.

but big shells are pricey.

anyone got a secret source for shells?

fake hydrangeas?

 fake flowers go against all fibers of my design being.

but i think it works here bc of all the darkness and quirky that's going on.

i would totally shove a few of those small funky lamps in there though.

 

sheep?

naaahhh.

(actually if i had 3 sheep i would absolutely shove them in there)

red coral and some cool andirons?

spray paint some logs a bright color and andirons? 

what color?

lot's o shells?

they look awesome against the black.

but would they work against my puke pink tiles?

small screen?

urns?

 

big ass geode?

who's got one bc these things are DDDDUUUMMB expensive?

ok...

here's what i DON'T want..

 LOGS!!!

don't say it don't you FUCKIN say it!

books.

i don't like books on the floor bc all the spiders in the land go there and make homes.

so.

get crackin!

and

before you ask:

that painting is by michelle armas, the wall color is ralph lauren forde abbey, the bench is oly found on craigslist, the lamp is cb2 and the shelves were made by my carpenter (my dad).

can't wait to hear your thoughts..
