HAND PAINTING STRIPES & A PLAYHOUSE, PICKET FENCE & FLOWERS IN A LITTLE GIRL'S ROOM

HAND PAINTING STRIPES & A PLAYHOUSE, PICKET FENCE & FLOWERS IN A LITTLE GIRL'S ROOM

One time a family was moving into a new home.

The little girl's room was blue and the mom asked me to paint stripes for her.

I drew and hand painted the yellow stripes and green ivy as a border.

Then, I asked if I could paint her a playhouse.  

So, I drew and painted the outline of a playhouse.  Then, I painted the picket fence and flowers.

They placed a little table and chairs in the corner with the playhouse.

The little girl just loved it and her mom said she played near it all the time.

That was a fun project!

I found this picture in a stack of pictures of my work and thought it would be great to share it with you just before Christmas, in case it might give you some ideas for a little girl or boy's room.  The playhouse can be any color.  Maybe it could be brown and they could play like it's a fort or a cabin.

Or, draw the outline of a spaceship. 

 I bet they would really love that!!

CHILDBIRTH AT 65: 

"With all the technology regarding fertility recently, a 65 yr old friend of mine was able to give birth. When she was discharged from the hospital and went home, I went to visit. 

"May I see the baby?" I said. 

"Not yet" she said. 

"I'll make coffee and we'll chat for a while first." 

Thirty minutes had passed and I asked

 "May I see the baby now?"

 "No, not yet" she said. 

After another few minutes had elapsed, I asked again,

 "May I see the baby now?" 

"No, not yet" replied my friend.

 Growing very impatient, I asked,

 "Well, when can I see the baby?"

 "WHEN HE CRIES" she told me. 

"WHEN HE CRIES" I demanded! "Why do I have to wait until he CRIES?" 

"BECAUSE I FORGOT WHERE I PUT HIM, OK??"
