I had the chance to get away over the weekend, and I came back feeling a bit more recharged. Dallas was lovely, and my hostess had some lovely land and trees to explore. At one point I was walking and heard something loud come crashing down near my head- I think the squirrels were entertaining themselves by throwing acorns at me.
You know what they say, "When life throws you acorns..."
Paint them.
So I did. I started out with three lovely colours of Country Chic Paint- Brandy, Rustic Charm, and a new not yet named shade of buttercream yellow. I thought that the acorns would look lovely on a Thanksgiving table.
Small project, but I like using a bit of nature when decorating the table for Thanksgiving. Plus, nothing is more relaxing than sitting painting acorns while sipping a hot cup of tea :)

what a cute idea. At first I was thinking it was going to be a painting...duh.
ReplyDeleteHa! It would be a stick figure acorn if that was the case! I am so not artistic that way ;)
