OK so I am going through a phase, a totally new phase for me. I love decorating and redecorating and I usually use things from the past (if I don't give them to Katy) or I search local thrift and consignment stores so I don't break the bank. But this phase is an expensive one and I am not sure how to handle it!
After watching this episode of Property Brothers on HGTV (fast forward to the 38 minute point), you will see the homeowner freak out over a painting...I WANT THAT PAINTING!
I cant tell you how long it took me to search the web to find that painting and who made it. After googling every key word I could think of, the artists website finally popped up. I was like a kid at Christmas! I had searched for days and once it was finally in front of me I couldn't stop smiling!
I fell in love with the painting even more. I finally found a way to contact the artist and heard back within a few hours. It was pretty neat to connect with the actual artist herself, Elizabeth Kinahan!
Well soon my smile faded. I know that usually when you buy art from the actual artist it can be quite expensive. So I knew that her response was not going to be what I was hoping for and it wasn't... Lets just say I have never paid that much for a painting before. But this momma wants it baaaaddddd! I mean real bad.
So now I am trying to figure out how to get my hands on that picture. Maybe having a yard sale or waiting until my birthday? Maybe one day...I guess its time for me to hang on and learn to be patient!
All good things come to those who wait...
