Everything's Fine

After receiving an anon. comment, "Visited your blog twice, thanks for explaining more details." I wondered:  Really? What have I explained?  What can I explain better?  Or have I explained plenty?  Let me know, would 'ya?

In the meantime, here are two little details about me:

1)  I am not a professional photographer.  This is the last time I'll mention this fact, because, looking at my photos, it's really quite obvious.  If I ever do begin to take professional photos, I promise to let you know!

2)  I have a love/hate relationship with "styling".  Like all of you, I appreciate when styling is done well.  Unlike many of you, it's a complete puzzle to me!

So here's a little project I've been working on in my "office."  Leave me lots of wonderfully critical comments.  Please!

This lamp is part of a pair I found at Goodwill.  The right lampshades are part of that mysterious styling puzzle...still on the hunt... ideas?
The frame was picked up for 50 cents at a summer garage sale.  I used a cardboard backing, covered with a scrap of drop-cloth, & painted it the wall color (Glidden's Elephant Ear).

I printed my favorite response to "How 'ya doin'?" in AKKA & traced the letters with a sharp pencil on the painted drop-cloth.  Then I used a sharpie to go over the lines in the paint left from tracing.

Detail Number 3:
I love simple, easy, done in a day projects!

              Love to you!
