I forgot this auction was ending this morning on ebay and so I wasn't there to outbid the winner. I really liked it, so I'm sad. (It's quirky and I like the shoes.) Over the last year I've been collecting old oil paintings to make a wall like the one below (from Drew Barrymore's offices in Domino.)
Nuts! I hate it when that happens.
ReplyDeleteAlso I miss Domino. A lot.
wow, I really really love the wall of oil paintings! I never really thought of myself as an oil painting lover, but this seems to have turned me around!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a gorgeous painting. Can you let us in on any secrets to finding high quality, affordable paintings on ebay? What search terms did you use?
ReplyDeletei love the colors....
ReplyDeletejust have your hubby paint it?
I could paint one for you :)

I'll email you how I deal with auctions when I know I won't be around for the end time. ;)

I love these kinds of paintings. there is nothing else like it. My husbands dad is a painter for a living and I always tell my husband to get to work! and make me beautiful pieces... the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
ReplyDeletei covet this vogue with drew barrymore, i also love love love her collage wall.
ReplyDeletegorgeous. forgot how great drew barrymore's office was. best of luck finding another!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I don't know how people find these beautiful thrift store oil paintings though, every time I go the selection is hideous and/or frightening.
ReplyDeleteOh man. Total bummer! Can't wait to see what you find to replace it.
ReplyDeleteThe thrift store finds are always the best, knowing you saved money and you can't find it again.
ReplyDeleteOh that happened to me before on Ebay! And another time I won and never received the painting...but luckily got my $ back. I love DREW'S wall....soooo well put together!
