Ever since I started decorating my basement with the farmhouse style I’ve been dreaming of sheep.
At times. . .even counting them in my sleep.
I had purchased a rustic cabinet that I thought would be the perfect place for the sheep to reside. Sort of their place to lay to pasture.
Over Memorial Day weekend my friend, Joyce and I headed to Spring City, Utah to order a sheep painting from a local artist, Joan Durfey.
Sweet Joan hand delivered our sheep today.
I didn’t think that the larger canvas would work, but it did. Definitely need to spray the black easel so it doesn’t stand out. Or do you think I should hang it on the wall? I really want a primitive sheep to go by it. I have been looking for a few months, but so far haven’t found one.
I love the rustic charm of this cabinet and it’s the perfect place to store some of my quilts.
A couple of thrifted bottles in a wooden box that I picked up at a yard sale for $2. The color matches the sheep so well.
I love the bits of turquoise showing through!
Loving my new sheep so BAAAdly! lol! And the cupboard, well it’s everything I knew it would be!
hugs,
Jann

The painting is wonderful and so are the quilts. :)
I love the painting. I used to have quite a collection of sheep items. Wish I had them back but gave most of them to a friend when we moved. I think it looks great up there and I like it on the easel but I think it would really catch the eye if it hung, too. xo Diana
I love the sheep picture! I hold a special place in my heart for sheep..my grandfather raised them. Love the cabinet too! I think it's great just the way it is!
What a fantastic painting. I can never resist anything with sheep.
Love the sheep painting! And the cupboard-and the quilts,too! Everything is perfect!
Your new sheep painting is beautiful! I love sheep too and used to have a few here and there around the house but not now. Your cabinet is really great too! I love the quilts on display in it. Blessings, Pamela

Love those sheep Jann. Being a rug hooker who works with wool, I have a rather large collection of sheep and it's so fun to find a new one every once in awhile! Your cupboard looks awesome with those quilts folded in it. I was down your way a couple weeks ago for Fleattitude - fun sale!
