A Pretty Gift & A Horse Painting

Jacki from Primitive Star Quilt Shop emailed me last week. They have added farmhouse wares to their shop in Indiana. She wanted to know if I wanted to choose something (Thanks, Jacki!)

If you will remember, this is the place where I've ordered all my red and white buffalo check curtains, along with other stuff in their shop. 

I just happened to find them a few years ago when I googled red and white buffalo check curtains, and we've established a friendship over the miles.

Here's what I chose: 

This wonderful galvanized container. I love the color! And it's a good size too. I decided to put vintage finds in there for now. No telling what room it will end up in next!

There is a larger one if you want to see it.

And a smaller one...

There is also something I found in a junk shop over the weekend, but I didn't get a very good photo of it. See at the right end of the TV, which I forgot to turn off? The horse painting?

It was just setting on the floor amidst a bunch of other stuff. My eye went straight to it of course. I strolled around a bit. But I had to nab the horse before I left. (And it was a great price too!)

Here it is cropped without the frame...

Isn't it beautiful? Yes, it is reflecting the opposite wall. Sorry. I will try to get a better photo later. 

Back to Jacki's gift...

I had a hard time deciding if I wanted to use this container in the kitchen, the bedroom, the bathroom, or the living room. So that I could see it more, I opted for the living room.

If you want to look at some of their farmhouse wares, or go straight to this beautiful container, here are the links:

I received a free product for my review...
