I forgot this auction was ending this morning on ebay and so I wasn’t there to outbid the winner. I really liked it, so I’m sad. (It’s quirky and I like the shoes.) Over the last year I’ve been collecting old oil paintings to make a wall like the one below (from Drew Barrymore’s offices in Domino.)

Nuts! I hate it when that happens.
Also I miss Domino. A lot.

wow, I really really love the wall of oil paintings! I never really thought of myself as an oil painting lover, but this seems to have turned me around!

Wow! What a gorgeous painting. Can you let us in on any secrets to finding high quality, affordable paintings on ebay? What search terms did you use?

I love these kinds of paintings. there is nothing else like it. My husbands dad is a painter for a living and I always tell my husband to get to work! and make me beautiful pieces… the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

What a great idea! I don't know how people find these beautiful thrift store oil paintings though, every time I go the selection is hideous and/or frightening.

Oh man. Total bummer! Can't wait to see what you find to replace it.

The thrift store finds are always the best, knowing you saved money and you can't find it again.
