Ready For My New Painting

Amber has painted a picture for me to hang in the dining room. It is of a couple of pears - the picture is really big and is just the two pears on a twig with a couple of leaves. I got to see it when I was in Turlock for her graduation in June. It is so pretty - and just exactly what I wanted. I am so lucky to have such a talented and sweet daughter-in-law. Thank you so much Amber - I love it !!!I don't have the picture yet, because we decided to add a couple of smaller accent pictures to hang with it and she kept it to work on adding those to coordinate. I was lucky again in that my friend Katherine gave me a beautiful apothecary jar for my birthday and a pear (the largest jar and pear you see here)!! So, I then did some bargain shopping and found two more jars, one at a store going out of business and got it for 90% off !! and then found a third one at a yard sale and got it for 25 cents !!!! (I love bargains !). I also added a couple of more pears to the table centerpiece. I found the fabric on a sale rack and will finish it off to make a scarf for the table. So, I thought I'd just show how the table looks in anticipation of hanging my new paintings. I think it is going to all come together really nicely and am anxious to see the paintings hung. Thanks again Amber for starting all this - my dining room is going to look beautiful.
