Above the fireplace

Amanda and I have been cruising craigslist for free stuff to furnish our house with. So far, all we've got is a dining table and some lamps.

However, I've got to say that the most impressive addition to our domicile would be authentic Chelsea Boothe paintings. They're even autographed! We have four complete abstracts and will be making a trip to michaels for the framing and matting. Sooo excited.

Anyway, this got Amanda and I thinking about our wall hangings. We have an old school awesome fireplace with a huge mantle, and last night we decided that the most obvious thing to put there is a regal portrait of us in a really thick gold frame. Something similar to below:
Except that we would both be in it, and I'm feeling more of a rectangular frame, and we'll both be holding small froufy dogs. It'll be on a red background, and one of us will be holding a cigarette with the cigarette holder. And we're going to not do the dog-that-just-got-back-from-the-veterinarian look around the neck, but instead we'll opt for frilly white button down shirts and pearls.

I'm so excited!!!
