More for the walls. Like the Victoria sheet music, I have two large ones that still need to be framed and hung. Whoo, maybe I do need more walls.

Art in my room

I have such a huge mixture of art in my bedroom. Oil paintings to sketches to my pretty little bird plaque that I just LOVE. It was a 95 cent find at my favorite thrift store. I would have given anything to find more like it. My bigest trouble in all my art is the placement. I have great wall space but keep debating if I shoud just group it all to one wall? Opinions are welcome.

Morning light

I love this time of day. When I see the sun coming through so early it just makes me have a great day.

The lamp shade matches the material in the frame!

Fixing up my room !

I have been working in my room trying to get things in order. I photo copied one of my pillow cases, cut it out into a matte and framed my sweetheart. I love doing projects like this and it makes a nice flow with the patterns in the room.

Boo to you.....

My hubby carved this one for Annabelle. She just loved it !

I think this girl has the right idea huh? ! Just lay in bed and enjoy your cup of hot tea. Ahhhh that's the life.

Caramel Apples make the Holidays better !

Annabelle prefered hers with sprinkles. They were perfect !

.

Dont you think they just make Halloween better? They have aways been a favorite of mine about the holiday....along with carving the pumpkins.

Evening walks....

I love looking at homes. Driving around and seeing how other people live. I love it. I guess thats why I own soooo many magazines. A legal way to peek inside someone elses house..lol.
Driving around I have been know to offer advice on the choice of a different paint color or choice of drapes, once or twice...lol. Ok maybe not directly TO them but to whom ever happens to be in the car with me. Usually its Annabelle. She is loving it too and has her few favorites. And I must say they are the cute ones! My girl has great taste. This little row of homes are just perfect the way they are though and if they ever decide to move out, I will be more than happy to move right in. I would even be willing to help them pack !

Go fish anyone? !

Softies Rock !

I have really fell in love with this "Softie" movement. They are everywhere and I think it is so wonderful! People are back to using their time to create things..instead of out having to shop for it. It also makes those items so much more special. I dont know who made this elephant softie but he has a sweet spot in my heart.

He is actually weighed down with something. I use him as a pin cusion! Now that sounds mean after just saying that I love him..lol. I plan on making some softies myself. It is all very very inspiring !

Desk goodies! They keep me busy for hours.....hopefully I can have some of my art posted soon.

Vanity items....

Crabtree &Evelynn makes such pretty little soap dishes. Its a shame I never uses them for that..lol. I have always liked little dishes and containers. I hardly uses my jewelry boxes anymore!

Do you remember these ! ?

I got this little pair of cuties at a sale for .25 cents ! I just could not pass them up. I had the same ones when I was younger. They held perfume at one time. Avon should make them again...dont you think? I would love to buy some new ones for Annabelle......She loves to wear them.

Only a treat here!

My Annabelle made this a couple of days ago on a day out with her daddy. Her and Brian were smiling so big when they came in. She did it all by herself too. She even got a pumpkin for her big brother too! I am so proud of her.

Still cleaning out.....

Whew ! Going through all those goodies you own and trying to decide what goes -and what stays, can be tough. This little beauty was Annabelle's. She really took great care of her for being so young. She has now moved on to her American girls and softies. I think this little red head will find a great new home.

basket of beauty...I wish I could do this

Mmmm..pretty

Can you believe I am getting rid of this little beauty? Yep clearing out alot of my stuff. I guess we will see how it goes !

Fairy House

A special little fairy house for Annabelle's good day fairy.

Vintage Tins

They make great storage for many things too.

I love my iron hook for my robe. I have three of them and just cant seem to part with them. Look closely, it is shaped like a fish. They were perfect when I did my mermaid theme. Changed again. I am always switching stuff around.

The powder room

I just love things for the bathroom. Little jars for cream, cotton balls. And cute containers for makeup and other toiletries. I love dusting powders.

More linens ! I need them

Oh how I love white lace sheets. They just make you sleep better. It is a fact of life. Layer two or three, with amazing ruffles and lace and you are guaranteed to sleep like a baby. Then a nice down comforter on top ,with tons of euro down pillows under your head........ No boogie man under that bed...lol.
