chijim - Oh my goodness, I love your dog pictures especially the Westie ones..

I opened this thread because I thought you were asking about paw-painting your walls. Whoa.

THANKS SO MUCH, EVERYONE!!! Chijim, that is magnificent! Do you have doggies throughout your home, or just in this one room? I'd love to see how you've decorated other areas of your beautiful home, if you don't mind sharing. Marcolo....I see how you might think that I was asking about paw-painting! LOL

I did too marcolo!

Hello. I joined this place just to ask you WHAT color have you on those walls? I must know. BTW, it reminds me of what I call Frick Museum Rose but I am unable to locate it in paint chips. I'd so appreciate it if you would reply. :)

Oh my! Chijim, I just love your dog prints. I have a few cat prints. I don't know how it even happened that I have them but realized when I was starting a refresh that I have more cat art than anything else. I love how you used all sizes but kept all the frames gold to pull it all together.

I have been looking for equestrian art because I have always loved it but still seem to be drawn to cat art. Maybe I should rethink things and go catty!

my3dogs has a few dog prints also (on the walls and probably on the floors...haha).

Oh gosh, here I go again, commenting on an old post. Geesh, you would think I would learn to check the dates.

@musicteacher, LOL! I once had cats, so I hear you about the shedding!

You can completely change the look of your furniture and even your floors (especially if they are carpeted or you have area rugs) by just never, ever vacuuming it up. Voila - new "upholstery" without the expense! LOL! (Just kidding, of course.)

On the wild off chance that you might actually want to try something creative with it (or someone else reading this thread might), maybe you could find a way to make art with it! Glue it onto something, felt it; I have no idea what might work, if anything. A lot depends on what breed(s) you have and thus the length, texture, and other characteristics of the fur.

Or, heck, just never vacuum it up from anywhere. You'll have completely "new" upholstery and rugs in no time at all!

I have poodles, in no small part so I don't have to deal with shedding. Although I've never tried it myself, I've known other poodle people who have saved their dogs' hair when they were groomed until they had enough to spin it into yarn, and then knitted or crocheted things with it. Poodles have actual hair like we do, though, not fur like most other breeds. That means it will grow a lot longer, so it is easier to manipulate to fabricate something out of it; and it will never be greasy or stink like dog.
