Curing the Winter Blahs with Minted Art
/Man. Will this Winter ever end? I keep getting questions of why I haven't been blogging as regularly.
Well, I was battling some nasty stomach issues for awhile. Once those resolved, Winter really took hold in Iowa and it's been gloomy and freezing. I haven't had motivation to do anything productive let alone DIY. The muscles of this operation is working 80+ hours per week. Hence, no blog posts.
What have I had the motivation to do? Snuggle Ike, hit "view next episode on Netflix" and put a lot of things in virtual shopping carts.
My latest obsession is finding some art for this house. We don't have a lot of stuff on our walls and beings we've lived here for 6 years now, I should probably work on that. I've been on the hunt for some prints that are unique and quirky.
I'm trying to channel Spring in any way that I can. These darling prints make me all warm and fuzzy inside. They'd definitely perk up this place. That little lamb. I have a super soft spot for lambs. One of the only things I miss about our first house is that the field behind that house always had a ton of lambs each Spring. I guess my lamb looking dog or this print will have to do now! And peonies. Don't get me started on peonies. I transplanted a few bushes last year. I hope they make it!
I found a bunch of quirky vintage prints that would look cute on our console table or living room shelves. I just can't decide!
You all know that I'm a big fan of farm prints. These three are perfection. (I'll even excuse a little snow.) Also, I really want a goat. I wonder if they are permitted in our covenants. (Dear in-laws, I'm totally joking. Sort of.)
Which prints are your favorite? How are you fighting the Winter blahs?
