As the weekend approaches, I know some of you are going to go off to parties and such, but if you're in the DC Metro area and you don't mind hightailing it out to Fauquier County then you definitely should stop and visit at Buckland Farm Market.

Have you ever had an itch that you scratched, and then you had to scratch it some more? I fear I have this itch. I thought it would go away with this craft. It didn't. It got worse. Much worse. More on that later.

My itch began over the summer and it resided in the locale of  my laundry room. I thought I could make my laundry room a smudge more tolerable by adding this window art.

Its pretty, but it didn't help.

So its nothing new for a crafter hoarder to have paint lying around. Its not even odd that they'd have several dozen shades of latex paint around along with a slew of acrylics, possibly some oil-based and fabric paint along with all sorts of mediums and glazes. I know I do. You do to. Admit it. I'm glad I'm not alone in the raising of hands for our hoarding crafting tendencies.

So what do you get when you mix paint, stippling brush, lampshade, and a homemade stencil? You get paint on your pants, or your kitchen floor after the brush leaps to its death from your hands. Pfffft, a slightly suicidal brush is not going to stop me from updating a part of my family room that has been bugging me for a few weeks now.
