one of my best friends, terri, has recently built a "house barn". we call it the "barnominium" because it is so big! it is the cutest barn that i have ever seen!
my favorite has to be the brick floors or the stained, wood ceilings or the barn red kitchen island or the butcher block cabinets... okay i love it all!
it just feels so "homey"- i could stay all day.
so, a couple of days ago terri said she was ready to start
putting all of her fantastic wall decor together!
yea, i've been waiting forever to hear that!
our first challenge was a giant, blank wall above the staircase.
her sweet, family portraits made for a great mural.
before...
after...
you can't tell by the photos, but the two long frames are pictures of her husband's family farm in the 30's. i think everything in the mural probably cost her under $25. she found everything at garage sales or goodwill. i gave her the shadowbox and the rest was probably just laying around!
i love a mural!
here is a picture of the shadowbox that i gave her that day.
i will try to send more barn pics at a later blog!
