The Cow, the Mantel and the Shutters

I'm sure most of you are aware of Eulalie the Cow if you follow Miss Mustard Seed's Blog. She was painted by the the fabulously talented Cindy Austin-Redman. I am a lucky and proud owner of one of her prints of Eulalie, I know, don't be jealous :) .Well I've been working on my mantel area so there would be a proper place to hang her. Here's the backboard I made for the mantel.....

I added an applique to a wood board, added some trim and painted with ASCP in Old White.
I finally was able to hang my favorite picture.....

I can't tell you how much I love this picture.

The horses are from Decor Steals. Luv em'!

Flanking the fireplace are two shutters....

I found them at my favorite antique store. The mirrors are from Decor Steals

I love the way the shutters open up. I added a heart shaped boxwood  from Decor Steals.

And an Antique Farmhouse Horse on the coffee table

Stay tuned next week when I redo the top of this coffee table.
For now.....Happy Blogging!
