Horseplay

I am inspired by many people. I love to read blogs and see what's going on in other people's brains (and homes).

When Sherry from YoungHouseLove.com posted this post about ponies - I was in love.

I don't mean to be a biter - but when someone shares something so fantastic - I listen (AND LOVE).

The artwork is exactly what I was looking for to put in my family room.

A few months ago I found this artwork for the space:

The colors are nice - but the scale is way off.

I knew that from the moment we hung them up.

And then YHL does a post on pretty ponies.

And I ordered me some pretty cool artwork from Art.com.

Below, to show you what they might look like in the space, I took a before picture.

Do you see Nic's head?

And the cup of milk that ISN'T supposed to be in the living room?!

It was only when I started editing these pictures did I realize it was there - and I yelled out to Nic

to get it back in the kitchen! lol...

You will notice the gold valance is not up yet...

Soon.

Anyway - here's what it might look like with the pictures...

(nothing fancy - no photoshop today)

The pictures are 40x30 - and are perfect in color. I think IRL they are supposed to be a bit softer.

Excited for that. 

I think the room was looking a little too brown. I think the valance and the new artwork will help.

I am also on the lookout for some new over sized pillows in a variety of prints and colors. To bring in more creams, rusts, and aloe/mint/teals.

For now, I am just happy with my (err, Sherry's) latest find!  The artwork is coming from San Fran... I cannot wait until it arrives!
