Friday Fives

It's Friday Fives over at Beth's....
This week, it's 5 people you would love to have dinner with, living, dead, fictional, whatever.


Are you wondering who this is? Why do I have a woman you probaby don't recognize at the top of my list??

This is Amy Butler, and she is a genius.



She designs the BEST fabric collections you have ever seen.They are modern, but have a vintage feel at the same time. They are the highest quality, and they coordinate in wonderful, unusual ways.



I would love to have dinner at her house (so I could snoop around).






This is her studio. It looks like she might be a neat freak, and you know how much I like that...
Or, I guess she could have cleaned up for the photo shoot. I prefer to imagine that it's always this perfect.




Now to swing a full 180 degrees from my favorite fabric designer...

Johnny Depp.



I had a poster of Johnny Depp on my wall in high school. I never missed 21 Jump Street.
All you twenty somethings may be wondering what the heck 21 Jump Street is.
I have a sneaking suspicion that he smells bad, but I would like to find out for myself.




I love politics. Whether you agree with Ronald Reagans views or not, you have to admit he was a smart guy. A wonderful speaker, he is the author of some of my favorite quotes. He was a politician that truly held America in high esteem. He lived up to the honor of being president, he wouldn't even remove his jacket while he was in the Oval Office. Wish he was in DC......
(If you want to send me nasty comments regarding this pick - go ahead - you won't change my mind)



I'll step off my soapbox to mention M. Night Shyamalan. I love every movie he has ever made, and I can't wait to see his new one.




Good ole' Martha. I don't really want to talk to her a lot. I mostly just want to challenge her to do some random crafty things, just to see if she's for real. Actually, I woud like to see her paint some furniture, make a clients baby gift, return emails, feed my 3 kids, take them to a their events, and clean my house from top to bottom. I have to do it, maybe Martha coud man-up. (or not)

Pink and Green nursery

So, here is the adorable bedding for this nursery. I love, love, love Amy Butler fabrics, and this is a great taste of what her entire collection looks like.
With some basics, adorable bedding, and a few shabby chic redo's, this customer had an instantly sweet nursery.



Here's everything all together. I wish I had photos of it in place, not in my floor.




This canvas was HUGE. She has 12 ft ceilings, so it needed to be huge. The ribbon at the top is going to be ivory instead of the pink. This canvas will hang over the crib (and the yummy bedding).






Does this bright pink look familiar?? It might if you read about the armoire here.
This side table will be next to a rocking chair. I love working with old pieces like this. As I painted and sanded, I got to see all the different colors this table has been over the years. White, black, blue, and silver.

Yes - silver. What does the rest of a room with silver side tables look like? Ohh, if this table could talk...





Light fixture. This will have simple, little green shades.

A large memo board. Same pink.

Sweet little polka dot ribbons.

Hopefully, I will have pictures of the finished nursery to share later.
