I'M MEETING ANOTHER BLOGGER THIS WEEK!

I'm more than a little excited here at Silo Hill Farm today because I'm about to learn something new AND I'm going to get to meet another blogger!
I've been collecting furniture to paint for years.  Many years.  Lots of furniture.  However, I have been more than intimidated by the whole process...milk paint, chalk paint, wax...oh it just seems overwhelming to me.  I have secretly stalked furniture bloggers for the last year or so.  Slowly I started asking them questions and learning a little at a time.  
Then one day I got this message..."Get ready Danni, because I'm coming to Silo Hill Farm to teach you to paint furniture on the 20th!"  This message came from Karen, who blogs at Somewhat Quirky Design.  
She will be at my house tomorrow and I'm ready.  (Well except for the fact that I'll be housecleaning all day today!) 
If you don't know Karen and her blog, she is our first contributor for our Furniture Fashionistas series at the Inspiration Cafe and her post is up today.  Please go check it out and make her feel welcome!
In the meantime.....my box of paint has arrived, (I purchased it all from one place...Booth 761) and I'm cleaning house today and looking forward to meeting Karen!  I sure hope she wears those awesome sunglasses!
You can meet Karen and check out her post by clicking on the cafe image on the picture below.

  2. How FUN!! The painting of course, but meeting another blogger!
    I have been painting different pieces of furniture for years, but I can't wait to hear what you learn. I learn new tips all the time from others. Surely you'll blog about it??

  5. That sounds like a wonderful day, well worth the extra housecleaning. I've been known to plan a party just so that I can get motivated to do the housework.

    I cannot wait to see what you guys come up with.
