Introductions

Today on this lovely Monday, I would like to introduce you all to Llewellyn. This lovely French style piece is one that my mom and dad purchased a few months back and wanted me to paint for them. I said "sure".......but then looked at it in the studio for weeks as I worked on the many other jobs that I have going on. The guilt finally got to me, and my sweet parents were so very patient with me! I am thrilled to have their piece done and safely delivered to their living room. 

My dad left all of the design decisions up to my mom and I...{smart man I tell ya!...must be where I get it from! hee hee!}.....so we chatted about color and hardware and all of the other good things that come with transforming furniture. Mom wanted the darker green....I kinda wanted a lighter more gray green.....but I am so glad mom stuck to her guns because when we actually got the piece in the room, the dark olive was exactly the color it needed to be.......perfection! Mom also wanted to keep the original hardware, so we compromised and I painted over it to help it look a bit more fresh, modern, and intentional.

So sorry that I do not have a shot of this piece before I started on it. I have been forgetting to take them lately as we are painting so many......in fact, I started another piece on Friday and halfway through realized I forgot to take a "pre knack " shot! I have got to stop doing that!

Hope you all have a productive and happy day today!
