Me in Place

Remember way back in the days of yore when we did the very first SAS Decorating Edition? This was the project for Christmas. Today I took out the same glass dishes, grabbed a couple candles and my bag of “river rock” from Michael’s Summer Clearance Sale – I believe after all was said and done, I got the river rock for $1.79. Now, if I had had me a handy river, I could have gotten it free, but alas, all I have me is a plot of teeny land in a subdivision.

I have to stop thinking about that or I get claustrophobic and ungrateful.

But don’t, whatever you do, pretend you’re IN the painting… at the beach… listening to the waves and reading a book. You’ll get claustrophobic and cranky.

(The glare is my fault, not the watercolor or mother-in-law’s fault. I would never ever insinuate that anything was my mother-in-law’s fault. Nosiree. She’s the best. )
