It never ceases to amaze me....

what a little touch of white paint can do to lighten and brighten!

Bathroom picture before being ambushed......


after the ambushing.......aaahhhhh, much better!


My husband thinks I have a problem. He believes that I will eventually paint everything in our home white. I quite agree................what's next?! lol

Love Amanda and her paint brush.

I like the white. I used to decorate very primitive olde country. Then I became ill and suffered with horrific pain daily and thought, "i need to brighten my life up in anyway I can to fight back the pain" I fell in love with roses, carnations and the shabby look!! Things are getting very white, off white, fisherman, oatmeal.. well you get the picture.

GO white!!

It's beautiful, Amanda.

We have a swan bench. It isn't old and the wood isn't particularly good. I've longed to paint it white or creamy white. I was almost ready to load it into the back of the truck,this morning, when J suggested we try the bench in the dining room. Once again, the swan bench has been given a reprieve from the execution of white paint!!! Who knows when I will start thinking about creamy white again. I just feel like those swans would be so pretty in white!

This is what I love about you. You take the EFFORT and are willing to put in the TIME to making your home more beautiful in every way possible ... who but you would notice that "this picture needs dressing up" ...? Your family is so lucky to have a wife/mom/contessa that is in love with making a lovely home for the family.

Awesome.

And yes, the picture looks super with a white frame.

Tell your hubby not to hold still for too long .. he may be next. ha.
