Painting Class and Fridge

 Its so funny that
I pay to go
to these paint
classes when I 
can teach this 
at my house.
But, its fun when
someone ask you to
go and you go as
a group.

Friday night I 
went to a gallery
in the city next to me
with my sis in law, 
niece and sis in
laws niece.
We had so much
fun.
We painted this.

This is Kims.


My niece Holly and
her painting.


Sis in laws niece,
Briana

Holly again and my sis
in law, Kim


Three of us. Holly had to 
leave early cause she
is taking some college
courses and had homework.
Me, Kim and Briana.

I love seeing the differences.
The guy teaching had 3
bats. I only wanted two as
did Kim. We all
did the pumpkin faces
different. 
I loved it.

Have any of you ever
went to classes like
this?

My fridge was here
when I moved in.
Can't remember when
mom bought it. I should
have the paperwork and
need to look it up.

But it was getting rusty
on the front. I am not 
a fan of this type
of finish anyway.. 

So I decided to cover
it.


Amazing what you can do
with contact paper.
Not ready to purchase a 
new one yet. I want to 
get stated on redoing
the kitchen this winter
and once that is done I 
will prob purchase a new
one then. 

Now to get the
water disconnected
on the fridge so that
I can move it 
across the room. 
I am going to put 
a dishwasher in this
spot next to the sink 
since the house does
not have one being 
built in the late 60s.

Have you ever used
contact paper on
something like this?
Not long after I married,
hubs and I rented a house
that did not have 
a fridge so we bought 
a used one, and it
was not totally
pretty on the front...
I covered it with 
contact paper, only I 
used the wood looking
pattern. Held up great.

Hoping you all are
enjoying life,
Pam

Your Halloween painting is great! Sounds like fun. I went to painting classes years ago and enjoyed them. Enjoyed looking at your photos and that’s a lovely one of the three of you with your artwork. I had a cottage industry painting wooden Christmas ornaments for about a dozen years and had fun with that too, selling them at local and not so local craft shows. I am impressed with your fridge and the contact paper. I haven’t used it before but you did a great job and have definitely given me some ideas. Happy Halloween month!

You are such a fun person to be around! ~hugs~ I would worry about covering rust over any electrical appliance. But you are wiser than I. ~nods~ Thank you for sharing your art. Be well!

I'm not a fan of stainless steel appliances, either. Nice with the contact paper.

I once was with a group that went painting. But this was 30 years ago, before someone would have a painting to copy. I had to come up with a subject on my own, and I failed miserably. Never done it since.

But, the parties where there's a painting to copy, that's something I would enjoy. But no one I know has done this around me, so I haven't had a chance. I would enjoy that.

The paintings all look great.
The contact paper sure made a difference on the front of that fridge. I've used contact paper but never on anything big like this.

I spent yesterday up here (with my pneumonia -- can't do much) trying to pull out 60-year-old contact paper drawer liner from the drawer. I am nothing if persistent. But the fridge -- that's brilliant! My cousin's cottage fridge is rusty on the front but they aren't here enough to make an expensive new one worthwhile. I now know what they can do!

The Rest of Today

After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Well, what was I thinking? HAHA After laying on my couch in so much pain all summer, I knew moving closer to  Amber was the thing to do, The timing of finding my dream home was off. However, Two days of Open House and I have a contract. Selling as is, minor repairs.  Inspection to be done after  the work in the  den and BR is done. The process of getting here while just a couple of weeks of healing was a challenge. My daughter was a big  help weekend before  last. I just collect to many projects that I  never get around to and that has to stop. I have to say, last time  was easier, I had moved into my childhood home before I sold the other, so it was empty when sold. EASIER. I hate moving so close to Christmas but it is  what it is. Fall seems to have made it to us the past week. I am surprised, we were losing so many leaves due to no rain,  glad to have some color. In between packing, cleaning, repairs and life in general, I have  managed to do a few things. I taught a paint class an
