Happy Birthday Paint Party Friday!!!




Many thanks to Kristin and Eva for maintaining our gathering spot.
Six years is a L O N G time to keep something like this running
I appreciate you and I am sure we all dol



This background was created a couple of years ago on, of course, March 17.
I never liked it so when scrounging around for something to work on,
I pulled it out and added some daisies.  



Lucky daisies?
I think it is headed back under the bed.


Another background on yupo.
Spring has sprung in Florida and I am busy unpotting, dividing and repotting orchids.
It is a mess and I am a mess and the lanai is a mess
All of which makes DH very cranky.
I love it.  I love seeing the plants upside down,   I love having plants to give away.
And I love to see how the plants respond to repotting.  It is like I give them new energy to bloom.

Wishing all a celebratory Happy Paint Party Friday!

Sounds like a busy season with your orchids. Both your paintings are great, but the second one is my fave with the lovely colours. Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie

The daisies were a great addition, they add cheer.

These are both wonderful.
Your backgrounds are beautiful by themselves and I wouldn't hide the shamrocks and daisies back under the bed...it's so pretty~

Happy PPF

I like the daisies! Oh yes, the re-potting! lol lots of work but so much fun when you are done. I do not have much around this new place yet, but hopefully I will get more plants soon ♥

I think both pieces are great. Your daisies are so creative, and your background is perfect just as it is.

Hi Susan, I love those bright happy daisies with their clover background!
A very colourful yupo - exciting!
It's always a messy business potting up - I agree, great when its all done though ;D) Cheers and Happy PPF!

I like the background without the daisies too. But the addition of the daisies is cute, and they don't deserve to be under the bed I think ... :-)
