paint-by-number

I'm pretty ecstatic over this "find"!
I broke up my 5 hour trip to a speaking engagement yesterday
by stopping at a thrift store in Watseka IL.  
I bought 5 Golden Books (children's) to add to my collection
and a couple of other things....
but this was my favorite find of the day.
It's larger than the other paint-by-number paintings I have...
I hope to stop at another shop on the way home.
Who knows WHAT else  I'll stumble on?!?

    My Uncle Buddy does the most beautiful paint by number pictures. Huge ones. One of his hangs in the church he attends. I'm so glad you are finding such nice things.

    It's been a while since I've visited you here. I felt like I had a delicious novel to read and did enjoy your treasures so. I have all of Alexandra Stoddard's books, too...and still never pass one up--either for my daughter or nieces. I usually head for the books first.
