???? and the traveling art/lamps

I'm stuck folks.  I have been sporadically painting and rearranging between working and the kids being home all week. Spring fever. I started a stencil in my bathroom earlier this week that I have yet to finish because as soon as I started I saw the Designers Guild crazy gorgeous Madame Butterfly paper from my last post and can really see that in here with a white linen roman and banding. Run on sentence, sorry.

Here is the space...

+ this maybe

Should I attempt to paint something like the above??????

I had originally wanted to get some yardage to do some pillows in my living room, but now I just don't know.  This is where I hate design and the prettiness overload on my brain. 
MAJOR BRAIN CRAMP!!! 
So for now the bathroom is dormant.

SO in other areas, we had the house reappraised yesterday to do a re-fi since we decided to stay in "el rancho".  Let me tell you, there is nothing like an appraisal to get your ass in gear and your house spotless. I spent all yesterday cleaning, rearranging, etc.  In the process I found some old treasures.

My Genie Lamps came up from the basement and into my bedroom...

I had forgotten all about a pair of pretty crystal candlesticks I had too. Need shades.

I am ALMOST done with the family room!


I moved some art around.
"Big Pink" came out of my office and over the fireplace, the black round mirror moved to the entry...

(hello, pig butt)

I still need to schnazzle up the bar a bit...

 and my lotus candle holders I got from Sissy's Blue Hudrangea Bazaar now have a place on the buffet...

and that is all I can show you because my camera died.  

So tell me now, do I paint craziness in the bath or go the safe and geometric route?
My weekend is in your hands.

The idea of Madame Butterfly in your bathroom (loving all the blue in there!) would be fantastic! Go for it!

Madame Butterfly for sure! If anyone can do it, it is YOU! So go for it I say.

As soon as I saw that new Madame Butterfly pattern on your blog I thought you would be tackling it soon! I say go for it. Otherwise, you'll just keep obsessing!!

Me, I think Madame Butterfly would sing her heart out in your bathroom. But I wonder how long you'd leave her there - I'm remembering the completely gorgeous yellow chinoiserie wall you did in the hall/living room. But maybe you'll need to do it anyway, either to get it out of your system or decide you love it and keep it. If you do it, it'll be brilliant - I'm sure of that.

Dina @ Honey + Fitz said...

Paint craziness because you are so good at it!

Heather Peterson said...

paint craziness, for sure. The geometric feels like too much rigid pattern with the tile. Have fun!

Paint the madame butterfly! The stencil is too rigid with the tile, I think.

Hey Danika - the family room really looks fab. Love the rug. Very warm. Is that grasscloth or a faux on the walls?
