I love gingerbread people! They are such whimsical characters and they put a smile on my face. Unlike snowmen they can add a whimsical touch for decorating through out the year. This ginger gal is a design by Terrye French; it's one of her older designs that I found while I was digging through all my "stuff" for an inspirational piece for this bread board. I knew it was perfect when I didn't need to resize it or tweak it to fit this piece.
I love this size bread board, it's narrow and long, great for a corner or an area that is small. I painted this piece while I was on a R&R trip to Virginia Beach with my Sweetie. My Mr ended up with strep throat and didn't feel like doing much other than sleeping so I took the time to paint as much as possible until I ended up with a sore throat and headache myself . Yep, he shared his strep throat with me. That was back before Thanksgiving and that icky strep throat is long gone; I hope it stays away! I've had strep 3 or 4 times in the past year.
I'm currently working on some more painted wine bottles, another bread board and a sewing drawer. I don't know what it is about this time of year that puts me in this painting mood but whatever it is...I like it! I also have a large cabinet door that I want to paint as a chalk board. So many projects and so little time.
Thanks for taking a peek at my little ginger gal.
Till next time
