It's About Time

(I love Picasa. What fun!)

I am so delighted with how perfect the final result was with my latest project. After doing a little rearranging of the furniture in our front room after purchasing a new t.v. (we got a killer deal on it from Costco=$100 off), I had a blank space on the wall that was begging for some decoration. So, I envisioned what I wanted and got to work. For less than $5 I was ultimately able to create this most fabulous decorative piece (I already had the clock). All it took was $2 worth of black poster-board, a $0.97 bottle of brown paint, $0.75 for the dowel pieces supporting the bigger points, and some time to figure out just exactly how to put together the clock I had imagined. I love that it has some dimension to it. Flat, plain walls are just too boring (even if they're painted), and in my experience, picture frames don't always fix everything :-/
Finally, the front room seems just about finished.
Its not so cluttered;
and even though its a small space
I no longer feel claustrophobic when sitting in it.

Hallelujah!

Its only taken about 2 1/2 years....
