Stenciled, Refreshed Rug

I have had rugs on my mind!!  I would like 2 new ones for the kitchen, one for the side of my bed, and a new one for the TV room.  I look, and look, and look, and look everywhere!!  I look for deals, I look for colors, and I look for makeovers ideas.  I look even when I don’t need a rug.  I don’t know what that means psychologically, but I just like rugs.  That is all there is to it.

I painted one wall of our TV ROOM “A Hint of Olive” by Ace Hardware.  I LOVE how it turned out!!

You can also view my pinkish frames, my pinkish pillow, my lampshade, the floating frames, AND my pass it along gift-a handcrafted decoupaged can  made by Debbie Doos on the table here.
I have a green rug that is OK.  It worked well for awhile, but now it is just OK for me.  This became my pallet:

These became my tools.  A regular old paint brush, a stencil and paint:

Yes, I used interior satin paint!!!  I went to Wal-mart and had them color match “Summer Sonnet” by Ace Hardware.  Now I could get started!!

She adds pizazz to our freshly painted room, doesn’t she???
