I'll Be Home for Christmas

Original Watercolor
available here, in The Shop 

I fell in love with this beautiful blue velvet chair at a shop the other day
AND...I imagined what it might look like in my house...and this is what I came up with.


I am sharing it with my friends over at Paint Party Friday and In The Studio Friday

See you there!

    Love the color. I've no doubt it would look smashing in your home. I do believe Santa could fit that down the fireplace.

    What a warm and inviting picture. We had a fireplace in our home of North...I loved decorating the Mantle.

    Yes, that blue chair fits in perfectly.

    I was eyeing off a blue velvet chair in the shop the other day but the husband looked a bit too horrified so passed on it... looking at this makes me think I should have gone the other way and convinced him how great it would look.... happy ppf xx

    There is nothing like a cozy chair by the fire. Is there a nicer way to spend a winter evening?

    I love this sketch.
