our cat wakes me up with the birdies ... or earlier! ~ So during one
of the early morning sleep walks downstairs to "kitty food central"
the lid slipped out of my hand, fell, and shattered into many pieces.
All the while flying into several rooms! sigh.
Clean up in aisles 3,4 and 5 please.
So I solved two issues with one... a new painted project for a show and
a new kitty kibble jar for Hobbes. {I voted NO GLASS LIDS}
I also
voted on a nice seal to keep the food fresh...easy open!
I love gingham and of course you guessed it, I love aqua! So I took some paint
I had ordered up for another project,and made my own custom shade and painted
a gingham pattern. I love it! It makes me smile every time I use it... which
believe me is way too often for Hobbes!
Hmm, I think Hobbes would like a picnic at the shore... fish :0
I think he actually prefers chicken!
The beautiful knob I found at Anthropologie a bit ago. I love this knob!
A friend has a similar one that is all white and it is amazingly beautiful!!!
The little aqua one works fine here.
Now who is ready for a trip to the beach!?
Hugs,
Mary

What a lucky kitty! You got your stripes so nice ...did you tape them off?
Great that you had that handle! It made a nice project, Mary :)
And YES to the picnic at the beach...
Oh, how beautiful! I need to do something pretty with my cat food instead of just serving it to them straight out of the bag.
I love the knob you picked! I actually used the same style when I redid a dresser to use as sewing storage- http://scrappyjedi.blogspot.com/2010/01/before-and-after-my-sewing-storage.html
It's adorable! So what beach? Indiana? :-) I didn't realize that I'd visited you ages ago when I saw that you were in Aurora and I had just moved from Batavia. Am I right? I'm still in Southern California. Pennsylvania? Hmmmm. . . I couldn't reply to your e-mail because you have it set as no-reply. :-( So, I'm messing up your comments. Have a great rest of your Tuesday!
oh wow that is so adorable Mary! Love how you painted the gingham design, it looks so perfect! The knob is simply divine... :)
That is great Mary! I thought you bought it as is until I read your post - you have such a steady hand! I can't paint a straight line to save my life. My hand starts shaking!

My kitty like to wake me up early, as well, so I sympathize with you.
The New container is so cute, love the gingham look and the nob is great. I like aqua as well.

Hi Mary,
I am always up for a trip to the beach, thank you.
Love your new canister and how very clever painting the gingham pattern on the lid.
You are very talented.
Have a lovely week

Very Beautiful ... Love your etsy shop !!
This little beauty will look perfect in my new lake house! Love your choice of color - your hand is so steady - it looks perfect!! And YES I am sooo ready for the beach, it's about 40 degrees here, lol!

Amy
