This is my first post and I'm really excited to share my ideas and adventures in decorative painting! Last month I drove to Chicago and took some extra classes at Chicago's Premier School of Decorative Arts, and also acquired a 150 dollar ticket in the mail thanks to a toll booth I missed. Ideas and color swatches have been swimming through my mind every since! Fortunately my husband bought a new rental house in a beautiful neighborhood (my neighborhood :) that needed fresh paint and a little splash of creativity. Having an empty house with a fresh canvas is my idea of heaven! Before pictures to follow today and in the next week the after pictures. Stay tuned...........
