New Paint & busy times at Mini

Bazaar time is super busy. I think people think we're nuts
because we are only open Wed.-Sat during the weeks that
we have shows. Those days wear us out, though. Plus we
try to round out our lives by giving ourselves at least one
day to do the things that are really supposed to matter
in our lives. So there you have it. Wed-Sat it is....for now.

This season Sylvia thought it would be good to give at least
one area a darker coat of paint. (this area is all changed now
since the mirror, prints, and sonces are gone & we added
glass to this cupboard this fall). It really looks nice. Kind
of a funky green going on here for color.

Anyway, after I started painting I just couldn't
quit. Jay had a couple of cans of flubs at the store
so..........by mixing them up in different ways, we got
about 6 places painted....all in different tones. Sorry
not sure what color any of them are, but we like 'em.

I put on nearly four gallons of paint in the various spots, and
we now have some good looking colors....I think so, anyway.

You'll have to stop in and notice, if you haven't all ready. It's been busy at Mini, so each one of these pictures would be different now if I took them again. The changes at Mini are one of the fun parts. Sylvia is pushing a ladder around many times during the day.

Hard work is fun.............after it's done!

Everything looks great. I really like the green wall. I don't think that picture came through on the ones you sent me earlier.

Looks GREAT momma! I have noticed a nice warm change in at the Mini and now I know why! You are such a hard worker over achiever and I hope to someday become that too. But for now, I am ok with being a lazy stay at home loser!
Looks GREAT!

Mini B is looking great. It makes me a little sad to see the pictures though now that Mini Bazaar isn't as much a part of my life. Mini Bazaar was like my second mother...if you know what I mean. Wait. Even I don't know what I mean really. Anyway, I'll have to stop by the next time I'm in ID.

I had a hard time looking at the painted walls because of all the cool stuff on them. Can I have one of each please?
