Yesterday, I decided to stencil my downstairs bathroom. I have for some reason been feeling kind of glum. My daughter keeps asking me "what's wrong?" I don't know, except can you have the "summer blues" maybe? I am so used to running to classes every day and preparing my own class, that I think it's hard for me to just sit.
I have been cleaning closets and cabinets, and that's kind of creative, but I guess I am missing the kind of creative that I am used to. I had cut this stencil and had used on this room when we first moved into this house. Years after, when we had it painted again, I had them paint over it and was always sorry that I did that. So, instead of cutting another one, I used it again.
Got a little daring here and came down and around that picture. It's a Tasha Tudor print that I know I will never take down...
and back up on the next wall...
and along the top again, over one of Laura's collages, "River's Edge", that I love..
My sheep are very happy to have all this excitement going on around them. And I feel a little happier too...
