GALVESTON BEACH~THE PAINTING

I found this enchanting oil painting at an estate sale in a modest home in east Dallas.  It is by deceased Dallas artist Helen Cuthbertson. Apparently there is more of her work around town, most it seems found at estate sales! I hung this piece above our bath towels(as shown in last photo), as my husband said, we can pretend they are beach towels. I do love contemporary art especially when it still warms your heart! We will have this piece for a long, long time!. Cost $75 whole dollars!~Tracy

VINTAGE MOSAIC COFFEE TABLE~NOTHING ORDINARY ABOUT IT!

 I picked up this vintage mosaic coffee table at a area consignment shop. It had just come in and was still sitting out front on the sidewalk.  Needless to say it did not make it inside. I believe it was made in the 1950's.  As much as I loved this piece I could not make it work in our home.  It now resides in one of my favorite friends and designer's living room here in Dallas.  I certainly can not keep all the great things I find(I am a minimalist at heart) so I love finding and being on the look out for friends as well.~Tracy
