The little bench is cute...I would paint it, too..but would probably go with a deep red or even heirloom white. Maybe even a flag design since it is in a room with lots of Americana. You can easily cover the hearts up with a sign or draped blanket over them. Enjoy your weekend, my friend! <br /><br />Hugs ~ AngieAngiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436870034358846845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7244093537134240908.post-71796548638397642482009-07-10T11:29:55.955-07:002009-07-10T11:29:55.955-07:00I don't have ANY blue in my house except for a...I don't have ANY blue in my house except for an American flag block set that I made, but I put lots of blue out on our screened porch.

Are there wooden hearts on the bench? It's hard to see. If so, what if you painted them red so they've pop against the blue?<br /><br />As for the picture frame, the blue might be nice. It's in the picture!<br /><br />I am not sure what colonial blue is, so don't really know the shade you're talking about, sorry!momsthewordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14519343990735608713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7244093537134240908.post-65431991131802887882009-07-09T17:03:22.413-07:002009-07-09T17:03:22.413-07:00I too vote yes for the blue paint...as for the he...I too vote yes for the blue paint...as for the hearts...have dh cut out some wooden stars to place on top to cover them up...just my idea...HTH.

I had a bench like yours but gave it away when it didn't work in my last house. I think it painted would look great not sure about those hearts. I have a shelf I love with hearts and don't know what to do with it either. I hope you get some great suggestions. Oh and I love the new crock. As usual Tammy everything looks GREAT!

The brown of the frame and the red are too similar and makes the white background too stark. But that's just me, It may look completely different in person. LOL!<br />Love the crock with "sticks" too. I also have something with the heart cut-outs that was an anniversary gift many years ago. I have been planning to cover the hearts or have them cut into squares or something.....one of these days. And probably painting it too.<br />And congrats to Joy for earning her blue belt!

( Sort of like a layered look?) You might try making or finding some prim like cloth flowers or something like fabric stars to put over them? Just thinking. Love the star on the bench. I love the bench with the hearts the way it is also but blue would be real cute!<br /><br />Congratulations to your daughter!arkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15585693280918181242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7244093537134240908.post-33057051655538011662009-07-09T13:12:09.587-07:002009-07-09T13:12:09.587-07:00Oh I love this post.
