Hawaiian Quilt
A citrus splash of color on my wall today right where you enter our house. Don't you love the patterns of Hawaiian quilts? The two stripe vases I've had for years. They look stunning with one large stem sunflower in each of them.
The metal basket I recently picked up and I'm thinking of dipping it in enamel paint. But first before I do that I should paint it a burnt orange so that when I wipe the white off the edges it will have that ages-old-rusty-and-chippy-white appeal.
The basket could be used in the garden on new plants in the spring so that the deer and rabbits can't reach their sweet new shoots. I guess I could still do it when it's chippy and white.
Another option is to turn it upside down and make it a lamp shade!

I love them, Candylei. We have them on our beds at our lake cabin. I love how this one looks on your foyer wall. *nice*
I love hawaiian quilts...they are all gorgeous!
What a pretty bit of sunshine, especially on a gray November day!
