I love the illustration work of C.S. Neal. I’ve been oohing and ahhing over his work for awhile now, some of my favorites can be browsed through here.

I normally don’t like painted images of food, but these are just so fun and they make me so happy, I am pondering a set for my kitchen…
While flipping though the pages of one of my favorite magazines Country Living this month I ran across this brilliant idea.

Oh my goodness, what a perfectly genius (and affordable) way to add some personality to your deck or other outdoor space. I would recommend sticking with a b&w or sepia photo as shown…I have some especially lovely vintage photographs of my grandmother this would be a fun project to use those on! The vinyl also come pre-punched with gromets for hanging, wouldn’t this be beautiful hung with a lovely ribbon
