Weekend Recap: Homework
This was a rare weekend where we actually had no client work to do so it was nice to get a jump start on some of the half finished projects we have going on in our house. Our pendant lights went up (more on that tomorrow), the house got cleaned from top to bottom, living room chairs got reupholstered and artwork started to get down.
Of course I still have at least 10 more lingering projects to finish before the house is officially (for the time being) finished!
My favorite part of this weekend was getting some artwork hung. My custom framesarrived and all of the artwork that has been floating around my house finally has a home.
Favorite piece that I hung up has to be:
It’s a piece of artwork by Sweet Eventide.It is typically sold as an 8 x 12, but I was able to get a custom size done and had it blown up to 16 x 24! I love it.
*Sorry for no actual pictures of the house today. My mac is acting up and not downloading pictures. I have an appointment today at 10am with a Mac genius to figure it all out. Wish me luck so that I can share images with you tomorrow!
What did you do this weekend? It was so humid here in NY that we were happy to stay indoors and work away.

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.
That’s a beautiful image! I am craving more art…I go through phases where I am jonsing for art…
We actually accomplished a lot this weekend! Thanks to my parents for coming up for a short visit … I hope we can keep up the momentum…
Beauty. Go get that Mac looked at pronto. I do love the Genius bar they always solve my woes.
Gorgeous work of art! I love it!
Have a great week!

What a gorgeous print! I really need to get my artwork hung in my apartment… and possibly get a new piece now 😀
Gorgeous piece — I can’t wait to see how it looks in the context of your space!
Best,

I LOVE this!!!!!!
Wow! What a treat! I rarely hear an update from my wonderful customers like this. I would love to see it framed and on the wall. If you ever share a photo then, please be sure to email me if you can! (My Google Alerts rarely work for this stuff, not sure what I’m doing wrong). 🙂
