Melaine at My Sweet Savannah asked for my advice recently regarding her kitchen ceiling.
I was thrilled to find this post on her blog tonight-
"...I have been in a dilema for a while about how to tackle my kitchen skylight area. It is a prominant area in my home and deserved a little more than the blah brown paint I had up there. I asked Layla at Lettered Olive for help. She has a great eye for design! Within a day she had a great idea for me, that fit with the rest of my house perfectly! I had thought of this actually, and having her suggest it, made me feel confident that it was the right choice! So, the final product is inspired by her photo, and my favorite artist for pottery, Emma Bridgewater, from her Black Toast line.....Here is inspiration photo, before photos, and after! I am thrilled with the results! Thanks Layla!!!!..."
Emma Bridgewater pottery...Love this pottery!
...and the photo Layla sent to me for inspiration!
Before, dull brown with no appeal-
After! White background with black lettering!
I encourage anyone who reads my blog to visit Melaine's too. You'll love what she's done with her home (make sure you check out the posts she did on her exterior and master bedroom)and she's an absolute sweetheart!
