We had our kitchen and the hall to the downstairs painted last Fall, so I thought I'd post a couple of pictures that show a) my new grouping of Pam's wonderful dolls (check out her Tales of the Laughing Moon blog) and b) one of my lovely Betsy prints (to the left of the grave rubbing, which I got from a yard sale in Rogers Heights, many a year ago); both against the backdrop of the new color. The color is a little dark, and I wasn't sure about it at first, but hey, it's just paint. There are three variations of blue in the hall, but it's hard to tell them apart. Ah, well. I can have Jay, my painter and carpenter extraordinaire, redo it in a year or two. For now it's growing on me. There are multiple works by Betsy in the Betsy Hall, hence the name. They represent various phases in her artistic life. I need more.
Specifically, this one:

It's called "Peaceful Warrior." Isn't it beautiful?
