Jealousy issues

I swear I have Jealousy issues..


Its not that I don't try.  I mean... I really try.


And now this is the second post in a row that talks about KariAnn at Thistlewood Farms.. 

But, have you seen her beautiful blog?

Do you blame me?


I think its a jealousy thing.  because when I saw THIS.. I couldn't get it out of my head.

I searched and searched for something so grand and fantastic


on the side of the road. At people's houses. In the re-store. I tried.  I really did.

But I have jealousy issues. I couldn't just let it go...



and I guess its better than the alternative because I swear if that Farm wasn't all the way in Kentucky...


and now I have my very own big beautiful organizational reminder on my very own wall.

Jealous?



(BTW.. this thing is HUGE!  seriously 4 1/2 feet by 5 1/2 feet.  Made with 1x4's and 1x2's and homemade chalkboard paint.. tutorial anyone?)

  3. Love this, you did a great job re-creating Karianne's board! I don't have luck like her finding beautiful things beside the road either so thanks for an idea on how to do it!
