French Redoute' botanicals

I'll have you know, we do NOT muck things up. These are "learning
experiences."

Sometimes I don't like learning that much at one tim. I tried to remove the
glue with alcohol and it also removed some of the paint. Looks like I should
have used high density primer, instead of regular primer, because the paint
should not have rolled off like that. I'll have to repaint those squares. and
use the biggest honking rose I can find in that spot. Maybe I'll look for a
bouquet ...

I also broke my lamp, and somehow lost my address book while looking for my
daytimer this evening. (Lamp fell on top of my head.) After going through all
my drawers and shelves, and tearing all the books off the shelf, they both fell
out of notebooks/binders. Bonus, I found my embroidery scissors at the back of
a drawer, and I didn't even know they were lost yet.

Now that order has been restored, relatively speaking, I think I deserve a hot
chocolate.

Sounds lovely Dora. When I researched and found that Trish Burr book,
Redoute'
evidently did lots of botanicals besides his famous roses but I have a pretty
good idea how lovely your closet looks. That is a fabulous idea.
