Everyone always says, "Oh, you're so talented. You paint all this cool stuff. Your house must be so pretty." Yeah...they think I have lots of pretty displays like above. And why not? That's what I do where I work. Make pretty displays.
But in reality...
Yeah. There is the ugly truth shot. Yep...a decorator's dream...my house. LOL.
OK, mostly it is because I'm getting ready for a show. But I do have peeps coming over for lunch tomorrow, so at some point and time I must make some sort of space for us to be able to eat at. Clear off a table or something. We shall see.
I've added new stuff to my etsy. And lots of new things will be added to my Glitter and Grunge on the 1st. And what can I say? My things on Etsy are cheap. So, in addition to being trashy (ok, not really trashy as in trash, but just stuff everywhere trashy). I'm cheap. Trashy and cheap. What a title.
Thanks for letting me share the ugly truth.
And Happy Thanksgiving wishes to all! Thanks for stopping by.
Hey! that's why we love ya! Trashy and Cheap..

WhatEVeR! Your house is lovely. Trashy would be a nice term for my house--squaller is more like it. :)
Cute frames. I am going to try to get some stuff done this weekend!

Too funny, Cindy ... at least you HAVE a flat surface to work on. I'd show you pics of my messy workspace (which is an entire 4 bedroom house), but I forgot my camera in LA last weekend and will get it back on Thursday.
Love the new black frame ... Ikea sells (or, perhaps, used to sell) unfinished wood mirrors about that size, for a dollar each. Just a thought if you have one near by.
