Another Finish and something from the past

Good Morning Everyone!

In cleaning out my dad's stuff I found a framed picture that I painted in my early teens. I remember spending some time at the lake with my grandparents and my grandma gave me this project to work on. Do any of you remember Artex paints? Well I used them to paint this picture and it hung in my parents kitchen for many years and now I have it in my kitchen.

And I do have a finish to share today!
Cappuccino 
by Buttons & Beads Autumn Series - Mill Hill
14 ct Mill Hill Perforated Paper
Floss & beads included in kit
Started 3/18/15
Finished 6/16/15
I like the effect of the beads, but not sure I enjoy the beading process.
Here is a picture I took after I hung it in my Kitchen
My Coffee Wall 
I have one more cappuccino picture that needs to be framed to add to the wall.

I am going to close with some pictures that I have taken of my family

Love the painted picture Denise. I use to have the whole set of Artex paints and tons of pictures on pellon. Sadly it all got thrown away.
But, I still have a set of Disney ornaments to be painted.
