Holy Cow!


Look what I bought from Joy at SavvyCityFarmer! She has some of the neatest "stuff." In fact Joy also has a website called "Stuff in the Burbs."

This is a tiny little print, only 5 x 7. But where to put it? I think it needs to be on a shelf or propped on an easel.

I tried hanging it on the wall in the dining room, but it was "lost" there.

Besides, I already have a large cow painting on the wall. The real deal, hand carried all the way back from France! I don't think he wants to share the wall with the little mini-me print.

I tried him inside the cabinet, but that didn't work either. I know! He belongs in the kitchen. After all, he is a fun little print, and will fit right in with some of my other fun cow decor.

I found an easel and propped him up next to the sink. I like this! Look who is keeping him company:

A couple of white ironstone cow pitchers.

And the king of kitchen cows, this carved bull hanging over the stove.
Yep, my little SavvyCityFarmer cow print has found a home!

If you get a chance, go say hi to Joy at SavvyCityFarmer. She had a birthday this week and is off celebrating at her family farm.
What a Joy!

I'm joining Artie at Color Outside the Lines for Vignette Fridays.
Pin It!

Dearest Delores,

That is always the game if you come home with a new treasure... The hunt for a spot where it can start 'living' with us! But doesn't it always work out in the end?! Like your happy cow family in the kitchen.

Sunny greetings from Georgia,

Oooops. I stand corrected. It is a print of a bull, not a cow!. Obviously....!

Pam - @diy Design Fanatic said...

You found the perfect spot for your new cow print! Looks so cute!

Lizabeth said...

Very charming! Isn't it fun to mill about and find that just right spot for something! Often it ends up somewhere else you didn't even imagine! That's the most fun part about it all! Liz

Mid-Atlantic Martha said...

Wow! Great cow decor -- you have a whole herd!

Sherry @ No Minimalist Here said...

Hi Delores, I think you found the perfect place for this sweet print. I love the carved bull!

savvycityfarmer said...

NanaDiana said...

I love it on the easel...and that really gives it a little extra ooomph so that it looks more important than it would just hanging. What a sweet piece and a lovely post- Hugs- Diana

Kim @ Savvy Southern Style said...

Love the new bull print and it looks great on the easel. Love your big cow painting, too. I have been wanting a cow painting, but just haven't found the right one yet.

Susan said...

I love the cow print!! And yes putting it on an easel made it look all the better!!

Tracie~MyPetiteMaison said...

Ooh Delores, I love that little cow print, it's so cute and yes, you found the perfect spot for it!

Delores, I want to say thank you for your very kind comment about my Wine Country, cat, Gigi. It means a lot people taking the time to make me feel a bit better with their kindness. Thanks much for your kindness!!! So glad you gave your dog an extra hug in my kitty's name.

Enjoy your weekend, it's going to be hot once again, hope the grapes don't get more sunburn.

Condivido pienamente il suo punto di vista. Ottima idea, sono d'accordo con lei.
E 'vero! Credo che sia una buona idea. Sono d'accordo con te.

Delores, I am now see cows/bulls in a whole new light. They are perfect for your country French kitchen. You found the perfect spot, but that is no surprise you are a very talented lady.xoxo Kathysue

Katy Noelle said...

He's just too wonderfully cute!

Your home is soooooo beautiful! All of the other locales for the cow were really lovely (with that wallpaper, he's quite adorable) but when you showed the picture of him in the kitchen, I gasped. Perfecto! Isn't it fun to play around like this???? I'm inspired.

btw, I have that green lamp. I just got it for my newly painted living room which I promise that I will get around to showing photos. Promise!

Love, Katy

Mary said...

Only you could make a little framed cow look so adorable! I love it on the easel - a kitchen beauty for sure.

Happy weekend Delores. I've been so busy setting up my new shop space - pics on the blog - such fun!!

Hugs - Mary

It's little things like this that, tucked into our spaces, make them become a reflection of our personality.
Love this!!

niartist said...

Hey Delores!!! I'm sorry I'm just now getting over here to thank you for linking up to my Vignette Friday posts! I LOVE THIS! I didn't know that she had a store ... I'm going to have to go over there and check it out! :) Thanks so much for visiting me today. I have a question for you ... many people are telling me that they don't like the auto play of music from my blog - do you think I should make it silent or take it down?

Blooming Rose Musings said...

I love cows. This little one is extra special and I think it looks perfect on the easel...a place of honor! City Farmer is the sweetest...as they say, a "Joy" to visit! By the way, the large cow(or is it a bull)painting is spectacular!

Lila said...

Very cute. I was just wondering around your blog as I didn't recall seeing your tablescapes lately. Now I see you haven't been tablescaping, but having other fun.
