painting tile...

is actually quite easy to do! I really didn't like the iridescent blue tile that was on the kitchen backsplash. Yes, it is pretty tile, but for a pool.

when the sun hit the tile, it was crazy iridescent

basically you need some of this
(I bought it at Sherwin Williams)

before

after.....Taa Daa! I also put up a wooden shade;
I needed some natural materials in the kitchen.
I know that some of you out there(is anyone out there?), will like the before better,
but, I really love the after!

The paint is from Sherwin William, it's called hearts of Palm.
It is a vey light citrus green.

We had our first company!!!! Yay! We have friends!!!! They are the Riddel's.
They live in our neighborhood. Ivan, and their son Cole are in the 3rd grade.

Eating yummy ice cream sundaes...with cherries are:
Top: Ivan, then Cole, bottom is Camden.

I taught an art class at Ivan's school today. I taught the young-ins about Claude Monet.
They listened very well, and painted some great landscapes!
Overall it was a huge success, and I am a very "cool" mom. (snap fingers)
