Sneak Peek: Living Room
Months ago I asked my sweet husband to hang 9 frames in grid form above our sofa. This past weekend I asked him to please take them all down, because I now wanted one big statement piece above the sofa.
Before:
{ The frames are filled with vintage reproduction french notebooks}
After:
{ Artwork painted by Jon. He took my love of Franz Kline & Amanda Talley and his own style and went to work.}
The smart man put a smile on his face and hung up my new piece while leaving the nails for the grid as is, because knowing me I will love the look again in a couple of months.
Oh it must be fun to be married to me. 🙂

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
I love Jon’s painting! It looks great!
Beautiful painting- he picked the right color for sure!!
Oh and I LOVE even more that he left the nails in the wall because he knows you will change your mind again soon- what a great hubby
Wow, it looks fantastic. I absolutely LOVE that piece! You’re so lucky to have such a talented hubby!
