Just a couple of quick notes about the painting. I did this about ten years ago for an event that I was coordinating. It is painted on inexpensive muslin with house paint from Lowe's. I coated it with several layers of a gloss medium to give it a shine similar to oil paint. I do not spend a lot of time cooking, but I have spilled things on it and it cleans very easily. I scrub it down a couple of times a year... I couldn't hurt it if I tried. I hung it in the kitchen because I like it and because it is an anomaly in the space. I enjoy things like that. Thanks for all of the comments, they're fun to read.

Thanks for the incredibly kind comments. I'm happy that so many of you are enjoying what you see. It's nice to know that traditional interiors are still appreciated!
Rebecca_F- The mural in the bathroom was kind of a whim. I found a Florence Broadhurst wallpaper that I really liked, but didn't wasn't too keen on the steep price of putting it on a wall in a rental. So, I modified and enlarged the design, drew it out on the wall and painted it. It's been through a few different color changes over the years....and is about to go through another!
