The Changing Tiger

A friend of mine purchased a new home almost a year ago. All the rooms needed something done to them, some needing more work then others. One of the rooms that was only getting new carpet was going to be perfect for her grandsons and came with a wonderful mural painted on all four walls. She was so excited and knew her grandsons were going to love it. There was however one small part of this Mural that disturbed her and anyone that really looked at it , it had to do with the way the Tiger in the jungle mural looked, so mean, showing these big white teeth. I'm pretty sure the grandsons would have had nightmares. And to have it over the crib,,, Oh My,, that just wouldn't do.
So she asked if I could do something to it's face and make it sweeter looking. "Just Change it, Please!"

While working on the rest of the house with Carpenters and Painters, I did take some time, to repaint the Tiger.

He now has a much sweeter face, and no more snarling look at the grand babies.

Now

I think this Change did him some good, What do you think? Leave a comment to let me know.

A New Year for New Changes

Another year starts, and as everyone does at the start, dreams of all the things we will do to change ones life, surroundings or habits, come to the surface. Oh we are so excited to start new, only to wake up and continue with the same old stuff.

This is my first post and "The Changing Look of Friends" is how I feel at this stage of my life. The "Friends" part is anyone or anything that have been part of my life. "Friends" can be the people I have known for years that I will never part with. "Friends"can be the people that leave your life, and the ones that come into your life. But the Friends that I will be writing about mostly are Things in my life that surround me. Be it the six pack of Cokes I drink a day to the sofa in the living room. My home is my friend and everything that is in it. Things we hold on to, the bad habits we keep, the day to day same-o that need to change when you are faced with a change to your life that you had no control over.

My forced change was due to a Divorce, and no I'm not going to write about that, what I am going to write about is what changes I have made to make my life better, starting with my new home.

I worked as a designer many years ago with a firm that had a name very close to my blogs name. Now I'm using my talents and my love of design to start fresh with new surroundings. It will be slow going, but it will be a chance to Change many things in my life.

There are many women out there that are face with the same situation that I am faced with and I am hoping for us to share our changes together in what we make of our surroundings, our Home where we live alone and enjoy every second of that freedom.
