Farm Fresh

This is the picture that saved the cows...
you see, I didn't love the cows...

I loved the yummy wood interior
and the sturdiness of this piece

The chippy, distressed paint
was pretty fabulous

As was the soft green color

The hardware is all original...
well over 100yrs old

the pull out cutting board...

but the cows...
and the flowers...
well, frankly,
they are not my "thing"

Then, we found that picture
the picture
that must have inspired the piece
suddenly,
the cows and the flowers
took on meaning
and really, this piece is

So, so pretty...
and so the cows,
and the flowers
will be staying...
at least for a little while!
