~COLD~In The Backwoods....Room Sneeky-Peek & Sorry, More Questions!

I say good morning to you from the Backwoods!
Since when is it supposed to get this cold in the south?!!!
It's COLD I tell ya!! COLD!!!!

Anyhow....here's a sneeky-peek of the ongoing room re-do....
Still nott finished painting....ugghhh....but had to stop and play a little with the stencil idea....
Here we go!

First of all....thank you Grammy Linda from Behind My Red Door for the suggestion on the neutral paint colors for the stencil! I love it after all!
I think it's going to add alot to the room...but subtly....does that make any sense whatsoever?! LOL!!


My first question....Vut do ye sink of zee kul-ahs??
Tee hee....I always think of that movie "For Richer Or Poorer" when the Amish elder says that "Vee Like Zee Kul-ahs" when Emma (Kirstie Alley) helps the other Amish ladies put on a fashion show in front of a solemn faced group of elders....lol!
That is probably my most favorite movie EVER....minus the few pretty foul words that are in it...Anyhow....see that adult A.D.D. has me runnin' rabbits this morning instead of staying on track!

Next "big" question....Is the stencil placed about right under the painted border??
Before you answer....the stencil I am using has one stencil above it and one below it on the same sheet....I can only move it up if we cut it apart from the others....which I will gladly have Mr. Backwoods do if it makes a better difference in how it will look....???



This isn't the best picture....but the "dot" is a brown color called "burnt umber" it's chocolatey looking..... :)

Ahhh!! Oh yeah....DD & I went into town yeterday with Mr. Backwoods to pick up a few things and take DD to her eye appt.....the roads were very slick in our part of the county.....so I did not want to have to drive!!

Anyhow....after paying a few bills....getting feed for the calves at the feed mill...picking up some groceries....getting another gallon of paint....we returned home to find a box on the front porch of the lil' prim shop......

Guess what came?!!!

Yeppers!!!

My coverlet!!!! I LOVE IT!!!

Wasn't sure about how I liked the other side with the predominantly darker chocolate color at first.....but when I made the entire bed up with the duvet shams and the accent pillows...oh my.... YES!!

Indeed I do!!

Here's a sneeky peek of the lighter side....

Now here's a peek of the other side.....

I'm probably going to use this side (below) at least through the Winter.....then may flip it over to the lighter side for Spring and Summer.....

Well....what do ya think??

I'm going to be good and get busy painting now....I hope to have the main painting done by Monday....

Then, I will have to work on the pie safe.....then the bed....oh boy....I still have much to do!

I'm beginning to get annoyed with all the stuff that is piled up everywhere and all in the master bathroom....the garden tub (why is it called that?) is full of stuff that I cleared out of the room!!!

Let me know your ideas on the stencil placement as soon as possible please!

Comments welcome!!

Thanks for looking.... :)
