I had this idea yesterday after seeing a photo of my painted fireplace, which is now a painted dresser.

My plan is to not use my pellet stove until at least November. However I remembered how cheering it was to look at a nice blazing fire so I cut a bit of canvas to fit the glass door, painted it accordingly and stuck it on with rolled up masking tape. It took me about 20 minutes and I used left over canvas.

And now it’s making me smile.

Other than that I painted a small yogurt jar candle holder. Am not convinced that it was worth it.

I’d no energy for commissions today. There’s no point in forcing myself to work when I am this tired. And it’s the weekend.

Earlier I went out to meet someone for coffee. It felt good to be out and chatting to people.

And taking photos.

As a nice end to my day I spotted some people in my street and enjoyed showing them around my house. Being a minor tourist attraction is fun. And I get to meet lots of lovely people.

Now time for wine and an episode of ” Have I got news for you.”

While enjoying my 🔥 .
