20 x 200
I came across 20 x 200 via Design Milk. I love the concept. They offer artwork by such artists as Jennifer Sanchez (above) and Amy Ross (below). The concept is as follows: two new pieces a week, one a photo and one a work on paper. Each image is available in three sizes. The smallest size is reprinted in the largest batch (200) and sold for $20. Hence the name 20×200. They also offer medium-sized editions of 20 for $200, and large-sized editions of 2 for $2000 (for collectors). Each print comes with a certificate of authenticity numbered by the artist. I think this is such a great idea. Enjoy and keep an eye on 20 x 200.

Paint by numbers DIY...
I know that's a bit of a moronic phrase being that the concept behind paint by numbers is DIY, but you really can DIY your own paint by numbers. Color By Number 2.5 lets you to convert a photo to a paint-by-number pattern. Just scan the photo or load graphics file from disk, choose the brand of paints/crayons to be used and the program will convert your photo to a paint-by-number pattern optimized for the palette you have chosen. They offer a free trial and if you like, you can purchase the software for $19.95. Think of the possibilities.
And for those of you who like your DIY already done, ebay seller theoneandonlycountblah has this fantastic retro vintage horse in a frame for a current bid of $15.50 with a little over 4 hours to go. Enjoy!

Source it...
Yesterday Grace shared a fabulous sneak peak Meagan Goldberg's pink and black office. One of the things I loved, as did several others, was the blacksmith wall art above her desk. What a wowing statement against that pink wow. Meagan shared that her piece was from Ethan Allen. Their version is 49" wide by 37" high and retails for $299.00. However, I did some research and found some smaller, cheaper alternatives.
Ebay seller signshopnmore has the K & P Carr version measuring 26" x 24" for $80.00, while countrybuzzins has the 19 x 25 inch J. Murphy for $75.00. I would also suggest taking a look at the other signs these sellers have to offer. Some really great items. Enjoy!

I never wear a watch...
so I have no idea why I'm obsessed with clocks lately, but so it is. Anyway, I came across this fabulous clock via Mrs. Beckie's blog. It's a fabulous Sapele Veneer Clock from etsy seller Ketchhaus. I loved it so much I bought one. They're $30.00 and measure 10 x 10. But you better hurry. There's only 1 left. Enjoy!
