| About the Artist |
| Welcome, my name is Paula Chinowith and I am the owner and decorative artist for Paula's Cottage Charm. My business is located in Victoria, Texas which is about 100 miles south of Houston. I currently work from home which is wonderful because it allows me to be with my family and still do what I love most....PAINT! I have been married for twelve years to my wonderful husband Bill and have two beautiful daughters Jenna who's just turned 24 and Taylor my youngest she is 11. And just last year I was blessed with my first grand baby, Nora. What a toot, she just turned 14 months and is into EVERYTHING!! She's the absolute joy of my life. For me, my first love has always been home decorating. From painting walls with faux finishes to wallpapering and stenciling. I've pretty much tried it all and being able to watch my favorite channel which of course is HGTV I'm inspired everyday with new ideas and techniques. One morning while watching a decorating show I came across a segment with Priscilla Hauser. She was painting the most beautiful pink roses and she made it look oh so easy. I was intrigued so I decided to purchase a video and few painting books and began to teach myself to paint . Well let me just say it wasn't as easy as she made it look, but that didn't matter because I was hooked. It's been 8 years and I still to this day paint on just about every surface that I can get my hands on! Some of the items I offer on my website are new, some are trash to treasure finds. What I enjoy most, I think, is giving a new life to something that's been discarded and turning that unique find into a beautiful one of a kind hand painted home accent. Prior to 2005, which is when I began my website business, I painted primarily for clients, friends and for local craft shows in our area. Thanks to the Internet, I'm now able to sell my products through out the United States. So I hope you enjoy your visit and that you get the chance to come back often to see what new items I've added. God Bless! |
