I can't decided?......and the hospital visit!

I just can't decided which one of these beautiful beeswax canvas prints I want to buy! (They cost $75.00 US dollars it's 12x12 inch). I want to hang it in my lounge room!

This one below is beautiful! I used to swing all the time as a child! I have brown hair and brown eyes and I wore a yellow dress similar to the one below! :) ...........and it has a huge focal point (the girl on the swing) which will stand out heaps in my lounge room! ;)

It's on cavas and the print has a layer of beewax so cool!

I really really love this one (below) but I think in a large lounge room the picture has no large image to give it a real good focal point. For this reason it wouldn't stand out as much!

This one is stunning and it has a large enough focal point! (the girl)

This one is also awesome (but I prefer the one above).
I brought these awesome funky arse ru-on's I can't wait to get these little babies!
and these stickers which are dying to be in my mini books aren't you babies! :)

My youngest boy Caleb ended up at the hospital two nights ago as he split his nose (and I mean split his nose) ou our heater! I had to rush him up to the womens and childrens hospital to see the plastics doctor! He covered it with paper stiches and we have to go back again on Monday to see what else needs to be done! I feel for him as it will scar but my baby runs around the house (like a typical boy) being silly all the time. Ohhh well he is a boy what more can I expect!

Walls


First of all Niall and I discussed yesterday that we are going to get started on the inside and outside renovations to our house. First up we are going to paint the walls, almost every single wall in the entire house, mind you. I want to keep the colours very light, so my rooms look bigger, so that a can use wallpaper and coloured prints and items around my house. I want my home decor to reflect my scrapbook style. I want a light cream painted walls with a vinatge text wallpaper (I can't find it yet but I'm looking for it) and brightly coloured prints. I want one klimt painting (one of my favourite artists), and various abstract artwork including lots of original aboriginal paintings. I love aborginal art!!! My neighbour who lives across the road is an aboriginal man by the name of Merit! (I love that name by the way). Niall come up to me a few months ago and said I have a surprise for you but you have to come across the road to Merits house! I thought he was going to show me a litter of puppy's but it was his collections of Didjeridu's that he had made by hand the traditional way and hand painted himself. (a Didjeridu is a long wooden instrument which you make music by blowing out through your mouth and breathing in through your nose). He also had a small collection of dot paintings on black canvas pieces! He makes the didjeridu's by getting a piece of wood (approx. 1.5 metres), hollowing it out at both ends by nesting termites and smoothing the mouthpiece with gum. The tradional way. He does this outside in his little shed. He told me that his son is an artist also but he has his own website and a large collection of pieces. How cool!! I must take a photo of Merit with all of his Didjeridu's sometime this week. (and scrapbook it in my stories mini album).

I found these awesome aboriginal art pieces on aborginalartonline.com:












The end!
