I bought this today on a complete and utter whim (or at least I hope I did - it says two were sold and only one was available - I'm afraid someone might have gotten to it before me). I'd love to have the originals but $20 is a much more feasible whim than $120 - even if one thing on my 101 in 1001 list is to buy a piece of original artwork for my living room.
Harold and Maude is one of the greatest movies ever and if you haven't seen it, you should rent it, stat. And the quote from the movie that the seller uses to describe the art is perfect:
Harold: I like you, Maude.
Maude: I like you, Harold.
I had originally thought I'd put them in my bathroom - the colors match my shower curtain perfectly - but I already have a mermaid theme which includes two pieces that I'd hate to put away. Now I'm thinking I'll hang them above my bed. I don't really have anything decent on the walls in there and they would be a good start. And the blurb does call them a "great romantic couple" - they belong in bedroom.
In the crafting world, I've sewn a little kitty who is currently arm and leg-less, finished the cable hat (except for stitching it together and adding the tassels) and sewn up several cloth napkins as I've decided to make the switch. But, even though I had the whole weekend to do whatever I wanted to do, I was lazy and didn't take a single photo. I didn't do anything I should have because I think I was just bummed.
Hey! You're supposed to be working young lady!
