Furniture as Art

 When a gal has a husband who's a carpenter she
ends up with little pieces of "scrap" furnishings".

One such piece is this little book shelf that my daughter had in her room, but she took it out and had it in our "Goodwill pile".

I've been thinking that a natural progression for my art would be for  Jerry to build furnishings for me to paint...

As long as I had this piece around I decided to give it a try.

Keep in mind I didn't have the patience to get proper paints..


I just used acrylics I had on hand.. and I didn't really think through my design...

Still though. I think it came out pretty cute.

 Maybe for a baby's room?

I just painted rabbits on the sides and a sunflower on the top...

But I think I will ask Jerry to build a hutch for kitchen use and paint and finish something like that, you know with roosters, chickens and well... farm looking, kitcheny type designs....
