Details in the Everyday ~ My House

I love making art out of every-day things and continually trying to expand my ideas of what art can be.
Today I’d like to show off some favourite parts of my home.
I often wander around my house, just loving — loving that I’m allowed to do whatever I want to it. I could punch seven holes in the wall if I thought it was cool! I don’t. But I could. And that’s what matters.
I’ve always wanted to install an antique mary-go-round in the dining room. But resale might be difficult.
So for now, I’m sticking to small details.
Have a look-see!
(I’m currently working on the kitchen walls, creating a unique and bubbly border.)
