OK.....first things first. You remember when I posted about an artist whose gorgeous home on Lake Burton was published in Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles? It was all done in white and I drooled.....
Well....you won't believe what happened after that. Her name is Dawne Raulet and she reached out asking if I was the "Sherry Hart" who used to teach fitness at Jeannes Body Tech? She remembered me and had been a member there years ago. I was so happy to be able to say "why yes I am".
Anyway....long story short she wanted to paint me something...of course I was all...oh you don't have to do that...and on the other end of that email I was like FOR REAL......holy smokes....clapping my hand together like a kid at a birthday party getting a goodie bag.
And guess what?
Yep....I picked it up on Tuesday.
omg people.....
Is this perfect for my room or what? Can you believe it? I am so thrilled!
And dang her home was so incredibly gorgeous that I wanted to break out my camera but for damn sure that would have sealed the deal of "crazy....stalker....girl crush" image right then.
So I restrained. But I wanted to so badly.
I did my ADAC design tour on Thursday and it went really well. I met Laura Hemandez who is manufacturing these beautiful trays.....and she brought me my very own!
How freaking gorgeous is this? Was it like Christmas for me this week?
You betcha.
You can find Laura on Instagram [rinnovarestudio] if you are interested in one of your own!

Oh, wow, what a great painting and you got to see her home in person. Lucky you!!
I LOVE your new painting! Lucky girl!!
Shut up!!! I just love that feeling - your insides doing flips while your screaming "woot, woot!!!" in your head, all while on the outside you're trying to act calm "hey man, it's cool." You lucky dog, you.
Just a tad jealous of your new art! It's the icing on the cake in your dining room.
Forget what I said about having nothing on your walls being sublime. OMG that swan is to die for! Still no getting email alerts of your posts :(. Best, Beth C.

Your painting is beautiful as is the tray. I used to teach fitness (and yoga) back in the day too. PS Thanks!
The painting is gorgeous. It looks perfect in your new dining room.
The painting is perfection and was mean't to be on that particular wall and place. The tray is simply gorgeous.

Miss you!
gorgeous! love her work.
I saw a gorgeous painting a few years back of two swans on black I wander if its the same artist, I have to check it out, I love anything birds so this is fabulous!
It's perfect for that room! Love the black background too. I'm definitely going to check out that app, that could really come in handy!
That is a perfect piece of artwork for your dining room. How did you decide on the swan? It's beautiful. And that photo - that is magazine worthy, money shot. Looks so good - I'm sure you're enjoying it.
Love that swan - it is perfect there for sure or any other room in your home! Beautiful! Thanks for another great app info Sherry!
I join the general consensus of being absolutely jealous! I've now pinned her work onto one of my Pinterest boards so that someday I can save up enough to purchase one of her beautiful paintings.
Love the painting! Great blog too - and thanks for the mention about our app patternsnap! Glad you like it!
such great finds! I'm sorry, but I'm new here and I felt in love with that armchairs, where are they from?! They look stunning, almost like from brabbu.com!
It's so clean your style :)
What?! I would fall over and die if that was painted for me, not only because it is beautiful, but if that was my dining room and that was mine, I surely would expire on the spot seeing how perfect that is on that wall. Congratulations -- good things come around to good and thoughtful people ;-)
Omg! those trays are to die for!
This is my kind of painting--especially since my last name is Swann! Looks so good against the white plank wall. Love!
You scored big time with that beautiful painting! Isit perfect in that space or what?!!
