Lazy Day

So today was a gloriously beautiful day outside! However, due to a 'minor surgery' on Thursday, I was stuck in the house not lifting, not excercising, NOT riding my horse.

So I finally tackled a project I have been putting off for some 4 years!

I purchased this painting at Hobby Lobby back in college.  It was on sale for something like $5 (one of those damaged 99% off deals.) This painting had a hidious gold frame, scratches and a blob of goo on it.  So of course I saw potential and bought it! I painted the frame black, but for the next 4ish years it has been toted from room to room, stuck in closets, and storage units. 



Well today was this reject paintings lucky day!



I finally had this great idea (thank you pinterest) that I was going to spruce this bad boy up and write song lyrics around the mat.  I spent the last few months listening, deciding and discarding lyrics. 

  But as usual, all my over planning was for nothing because as usual I started painting and one thing led to another.  So with out further ado......this is my Pièce de résistance! :)
