Tilt Top Tray!

 I found this vintage tray last year at a garage sale. It was dirty, pink and ugly, so I bought it! Why? Because it's magical!

It's All In The Family

This post is being written from my heart to my son.
                      This is about his family,
                                                 his ties,
                                                          his family history.

White Teapot Crystal Lamp!

The best thing about Winter for me is, that I am able to stay in out of the cold and create! This peticular day, I decdied to combine a tired looking vintage crystal lamp with ceramic teacup, saucer and teapot.

Give me more Light!

My sewing room is an itty-bitty room 
                                  that is under the stairs in the basement
                                                                              and I just love it!

Furniture Dance!

If you are a follower, you will have noted that I just shared THIS post on my Stairwell Reveal! Which brought on...New carpet and padding. So this is the domino effect!
What brings on new carpet and pad?
 The complete emptying out of each bedroom! Including closets because there is carpet in closets!
 What a cleansing production that was.

Stairwell Reveal

I FINALLY did it!



Can you tell what it is?


I am generally not a procrastinator, but I certainly was dragging my feet on...


 painting the railing. 



It had an oak rail, newel posts and partial oak tread.

Share the LoVe!

Be My Valentine! This photo card was sent free for purchasing onlineWELCOME, in individual photo framed letters taken of architectural elements from buildings, for a client. I dug this out of my 'stuff' and finally framed it. Wrapped with red and white cord and a key to my heart!

My Winter Putz Houses!

German verb putzen, which means "to clean" or "to decorate." Mass-produced cardboard Christmas villages became popular in the US during the early and mid-20th century, while porcelain versions became popular in the later part of the century.
