Today I returned to house of S, aka the Divine Dining Room project. There was black plastic blocking the blinding window light, so it was a little easier to see. However, there were a few distractions as i looked out the window below! (Have I mentioned my Cat Disorder?? Never mind, just try to pretend that I am normal.)
This little guy was calling to me through the window, but I cold-heartedly pretended as if I didn’t know what he wanted. It was an act, it hurt a little, but I am trying to overcome this little problem.
Here is how the wildflowers look now:
In case you are wondering, these are California poppies, a variety of lupine, Bigelow Sneeze Weed (the yellow with big brown centers), Indian Paintbrush (the red), Baby Blue Eyes (bet you can figure out which one that is), Farewell To Spring (the pink – a clarkia, but I don’t know which variety), and 2 different kinds of brodaiea (or some such collection of vowels. . .) I hope to return to the job on Wednesday. This is a fun fun job! (never mind about the part where I forgot my brushes and had to drive back home before starting this a.m.)

I can see how those cute felines would be distracting. It sure make me want to tip toe out and give them a little neck massage (they love that)!
The wall is really breathtaking. I’m surprised you got anything done with the “babies” outside. I have the same cat problem you have.
Wow…what a colorful wall. I really like it. It brings the outside in. In the
Spring when all is green and the natural flora is blooming this will be a real eye catcher. I bet this room will have lots of guests and attention!
Those kittens are just adorable. Btw, I have a new little friend! A wild kitten (and sometimes its mama) sleep in the side yard by the swimming pool now. The baby is kind of orangy-gold and white, and hides under a section of groundcover (at least until I water it, ha! ha!). It’s mama, an abandoned calico, must have brought it there, at some point. Kind of cool, eh? There are plenty of frogs, lizards, and gophers for those two to eat… I just don’t want them going after the birds…
Wow! This is the kind of stuff I’ve always wanted on my walls. It’s gorgeous, Jana!
