Girl Friday: Big Thinkin'
LeAnn Wester Stephenson
I don't know about you, but I do some of my best "big thinkin'" when I'm preforming tasks like ironing a load of vintage tablecloths or painting a vintage find. The topic of most of my "big thinkin'" recently has been how I'm going to re-finish my master bath walls and how, using my original direction of Chinoiserie wallpaper, am I going to make them my own. My original thought was to just flat-out copy the design of vintage Chinoiserie wallpapers, and then I remembered a couple of pages I had pulled out of some shelter magazines last year.
Those pages and two of my most favorite "big thinkin'" spots - my garden and my bathtub - gave me my direction. I have found that given enough alone-time in either place, I emerge a new woman - a new woman with a million ideas! The ideas range from ones of global significance, like how to solve all of the world's problems, to ideas with very little global significance, like how to re-decorate every inch of my house. Below are examples of some of the latter:
