'9 A.M. in New York City' Framed Print

Actual title: Neuf Heures du Matin New York by Jean-Jacques Sempe
(Translation: 9 A.M. in New York City)


Back in October I spotted this large 24"x31" framed print in a hospital auxiliary thrift shop... It was full of my favorite peachy-pinks (not to mention some beautiful cottage blues), but the clincher was the little black kitty perched on the chair (I happen to be very fond of little black kitties!!). So for $10, this framed poster print (that screams 1980's to me, although I'm not exactly sure when the original was painted) came home with me.

I found the perfect spot for it... a bare wall in the far corner of the family room...


A perfect fit!!! And strategically placed right above the treadmill...



... so I can pretend I live in exciting New York City (rather than the suburbs) when I'm on the treadmill (New Year's resolution - use treadmill more for exercise and less for drying clothes!!)...



Now be sure to visit Beverly at How Sweet the Sound to see her Pink Saturday post and to find a listing of all the other pink loving bloggers who are participating this week!!!
