Thrift Store Finds

Awhile back I found this paint-by-number which fits in nicely with my collection (albeit small) of desert paintings. I put it atop a bookshelf in our rumpus room. The plant is one that was from my Nana's assisted living apartment. When she as moved to a room in the nursing home section, my sister gave me this. It reminds me so much of the plants around my Nana and Pap Pap's home. (I even remember my Nana telling me that she used furniture polish on the leaves of her plants to keep them shiny!)

Today, stopping at a new thrift store in our area, on my way to Ace (gotta love a man in a red vest), I picked up this shabby chic basket and plopped Nana's plant down into it. I love all these colors.

I just love paint by number paintings. I don't know why but I am always drawn to them. Yours is especially lovely.
