Bedroom makeover - an update (of sorts)

You might remember <a href="http://driftwood-interiors.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-project-revealedwith-twist.html">this post</a>, when I shared some pics of my painted canvas floor rug? Well, I had a little play with it:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjboaC92YzuRt-nJ-5UIe8zVQz7x0apaliYHunvmVSXUoN0LTkE1D10kWGubfUes37SW8budr5xq85Un6o7mr9pXd8yp6T5Vl00OiTT2xiFKLhXt5Bqp3bQNrxiAHPgVDFHwQnG0ZYW5g/s1600/canvas+2copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjboaC92YzuRt-nJ-5UIe8zVQz7x0apaliYHunvmVSXUoN0LTkE1D10kWGubfUes37SW8budr5xq85Un6o7mr9pXd8yp6T5Vl00OiTT2xiFKLhXt5Bqp3bQNrxiAHPgVDFHwQnG0ZYW5g/s640/canvas+2copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">and popped it on the wall in my daughter's bedroom. I do apologise for the terrible photo - it's the only one I have at the moment, as my <s>former</s> design assistant Darcy...</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKXxzEEzcyZhQDdroRwyBWMz20GkgJgCiy7n96pXcwFuE9qoFOAnkIc5UUNpsZdRcmM8r2BgYtUgRmdoCwRIzcvno9TkHPXDTxvSMwfzTsvgMpcdH6fdg7iouUH9O77_Vrufb1g9f409c/s1600/DSC03053.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKXxzEEzcyZhQDdroRwyBWMz20GkgJgCiy7n96pXcwFuE9qoFOAnkIc5UUNpsZdRcmM8r2BgYtUgRmdoCwRIzcvno9TkHPXDTxvSMwfzTsvgMpcdH6fdg7iouUH9O77_Vrufb1g9f409c/s640/DSC03053.JPG" width="602" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">hmm, butter wouldn't melt!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">...decided it would be great fun to have a chew on my camera's memory card. Thankfully, I have most photos saved to my computer, but I've lost some that I've taken over the past week or so. Of course, how could I be angry with him - just look at that face. And he was having such a lovely time, throwing it in the air and chasing it all over the studio, I didn't have the heart to be upset with him. But needless to say, a new memory card is on my shopping list!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Oh, and on a completely different note, I thought I'd share a pic of a new painting. It's loosely based on paper cut artwork, and as a little experiment, I thought it might be fun to paint a watercolour version:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh787sHFix8s-mcdTlv2cTARVvSgz7CGdCxOHcjEKW9XFjF5TrM10oQa96eihVt9qWSh9oQ3S8YEVuzld4S3HfacG0U6j-LTdpDDIADZ8YXOgt6AOoBstkI_YhiPXpWI9eNim9wXFylvtQ/s1600/fuze+paper+turquoise+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh787sHFix8s-mcdTlv2cTARVvSgz7CGdCxOHcjEKW9XFjF5TrM10oQa96eihVt9qWSh9oQ3S8YEVuzld4S3HfacG0U6j-LTdpDDIADZ8YXOgt6AOoBstkI_YhiPXpWI9eNim9wXFylvtQ/s640/fuze+paper+turquoise+copy.jpg" width="507" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">'Paperie in Turquoise'</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I'm still deciding whether to add a series of similar works to my <a href="http://driftwoodinteriors.etsy.com/">Etsy shop</a>, so I'd love some honest feedback from you all. I think this design could be tweaked a little to make cute Christmas tree cards in different colours:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZoB2-hKP2YFhfSwJHJa87w-BD0X9JVHR9kpzOTZPMu26PL0ZNOWR0-cntSmom2P3idDOQcrSvRCdi9rfuoiSxdx8kT-1FuACL5d0qOKfUOL-VoNuwAIi5ZmG7q9AN43LhFk_y2t78hp8/s1600/fuze+paper+magenta.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZoB2-hKP2YFhfSwJHJa87w-BD0X9JVHR9kpzOTZPMu26PL0ZNOWR0-cntSmom2P3idDOQcrSvRCdi9rfuoiSxdx8kT-1FuACL5d0qOKfUOL-VoNuwAIi5ZmG7q9AN43LhFk_y2t78hp8/s640/fuze+paper+magenta.jpg" width="507" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">'Paperie in Magenta'</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik36yp5Jql_YajXMMjyAEPUKfzhOHIKAZ7R5J2rpxE9OCRrZbsqazkpMckOAtwxKaJ6jfQBQssWbSfygI7S3Zl5GghCnj97NgLrpqvWsanMsK0IxpEdtfoRX7nO8p6y040wZ49EVhIz5k/s1600/fuze+paper+indigo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik36yp5Jql_YajXMMjyAEPUKfzhOHIKAZ7R5J2rpxE9OCRrZbsqazkpMckOAtwxKaJ6jfQBQssWbSfygI7S3Zl5GghCnj97NgLrpqvWsanMsK0IxpEdtfoRX7nO8p6y040wZ49EVhIz5k/s640/fuze+paper+indigo.jpg" width="508" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">'Paperie in Indigo'</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">So, what do you think?
