    Very pretty! I haven't done much with painting furniture but that is one of my unofficial new year's resolutions! Thanks for stopping by with the plant recommendation...I am so bad with plants but maybe I will give yours a try before I invest in a screen (which won't be cheap!). Have a great day!
