You may be sick of hearing about my bathroom reno.
Quite frankly, so am I.
Back in January, Mom and I hand-painted the ceiling, an ode to Best in Show, if you will.
We added a bulldog to the scene, for good measure.
Wilma's feelings would have been hurt otherwise.
And after a long awaited renovation, the end is almost in sight.
Here's what it will look like.
On other, more interesting, fronts...Do we have any Fiddle Leaf Fig experts in the audience?
I have a large one in my home that seems to be not long for this earth, and I'm not much of a green thumb. Confirmation came when googling FLF care, apparently they are "easy-keepers". Mine is losing leaves and turning brown. If I was dying, that's probably what I'd do, too.
Lastly, I'll leave you with this soul-stirring commencement speech by Anne Lamott at UC Berkley last month. It's the kind that is printed out and hung in cubes across America for a little extra motivation. In a blogosphere where uniqueness is no longer unique, it's a cool glass of lemonade.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone! And read this speech. It will make you remember what you're made of.

I read the speech, it was great. I don't have a green thumb for inside plants...sorry.
ReplyDeleteYour bathroom is going to look great! Maybe your FLF needs more sun?
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your bathroom! And I love the saying!
ReplyDeleteI've always loved that wallpaper, and I need to search through your archives to check out the ceiling! I can't imagine anything less than fabulous from you two artists!
ReplyDeleteLove what you are doing here. Can't wait to see it.
