About Me

My photo
I LOVE to design and to paint whimsical items that will put a smile on your face. Each day I share my simple life with you as I try to encourage, to inspire and sometimes JUST to make you smile as I recount my life growing up on a dairy farm! I've never had many material items in my life, BUT I have been blessed beyond words with love and encouragement from WONDERFUL Parents who instilled in me WHAT was important. I have had EVERYTHING that I needed and WAY too much of what I wanted. I am slowly learning to be a better person each day through my interactions with my friends on Facebook. Some day I hope to be as good as people seem to THINK I am! I am BLESSED! Welcome to my little corner of the world...Please stop by and visit often!

Art Challenge, Day 3, Tuesday, January 27, 2015



This is DAY 3 of the Art Challenge.

Today, I share the reason I got on Facebook…A friend told me I NEEDED to join because EVERY business in town is on and it could help me…

WELL, once again, keeping the theme of BEING LATE, I got on Facebook in 2013, but it has opened doors for me and friendships beyond belief.  My desire was to help get my pattern business going, but I have gained so much more through the friendships that I have made and the support and encouragement that I so needed after a difficult time in my life…

I am sharing 3 of my favorite patterns…ALL of these are painted with MY FAVORITE paints...DecoArt Americana. GO VISIT THEIR WEBSITE to see their wonderful products and their projects to inspire you.  You will ALSO find a list of shading/highlighting charts and other helpful files under LEARN.

The Heart is my newest pattern…The front of this pattern is what I shared on my last post...This original piece is NOW at my friend's house in New York...


the Bunny is my first Painting with Friends Pattern…



and the scarecrow and crow are doing my FAVORITE pastime~~sitting around and eating!  LOL…



All of my patterns are available as instant downloads in  MY ETSY SHOP

BE an ENCOURAGER...Leave someone a NICE note for no reason at all...LET people know that you are thinking of them...Blessings to YOU...~charlotte♥
