George the Peacock (Bluestone Hill)

Say hello to George the Peacock, the newest resident of Bluestone Hill! He was painted by Sophie Dentiste, who was so sweet and offered to send this original painting to us. It was perfect for this home, as we relate peacocks to Bluestone Hill, even though it is actually the neighbors who have always kept peacocks. When I was little, I thought the peacock at the end of the road was Uncle Bob's and he had the coolest peacock chair in the corner which we kids fought over sitting in when we came to visit. Evie became obsessed with the peacock down the road a little before Uncle Bob passed away (she once woke up at 2 AM and yelled "caw, caw" and promptly fell right back to sleep), and I even painted a little watercolor peacock for her old bedroom. So...we kinda like peacocks! :)

This painting puts my little watercolor for Everly's room to shame! I wish I had the talent to paint, but unfortunately God gifted Jenni with most of the talents and had to scramble to find something for the rest of us afterwards! :) But seriously...

I love the blues and greens Sophie used for the peacock - they are beautiful and tie in nicely with the existing tile surround on the fireplace. 

The plaid check pillows are from Target, and my mom happened to have pillows in a pattern that echoes that of the tile. 

This room is very much a work in progress- although progress has been halted to work on Everly's bedroom and to order new doors on the left side of the room. The walls were white and the trim, molding, built-ins, and beams were all a color that is under dispute- I said "teal" but my family claims I am a little colorblind and called it green. We can agree to disagree...but either way, it is a massive amount of painting, and I put it on hold to work on our daughters room. We plan on replacing the two chandeliers (one of which you can see in this picture) once we get closer to the end of this room.

These peacock feathers are real - our neighbor heard that Everly was a big fan last year and gave us a little bouquet of feathers the peacock had shed, back before we were even neighbors or knew we were going to be!
