Wednesday's goings ons

Well I am so tired from painting and distressing and upholstering that I can not even take any pictures right now. So, I thought I'd tell you about some cool things I ran across while catching up on my blog roll..

SaraBeth from Cottage of Stone is fixing up a nice old house in Kansas and she touched upon blue porch ceilings and all the tales that go with it..I still have to do that. I have 2 gallons of blue paint but need to have hubby do it..Check out her post it is very interesting.

Then there is Kim over at Twice Remebered; she is doing a giveaway so head on over. But what caught my attention was her new stairs to her creative room. Wow they are awesome.


I mean how wonderful would my stairs going upstairs look with all my kids names on them or just some words of wisdom?
You can check out her stairs and more here :

And lastly is my little sisters new paintings. She has them listed on etsy but you can check them out on her blog. She is very talented and I am fortunate to have many things she has created in my home. She and I are taking the big leap and going for our dream this October when we do our booth of items we have lovingly created..

Give her blog a look along with her other paintings: http://whimsyartstudio.blogspot.com/
that is all from me for now as I am tired and going to go crash...
