Pink Room So Far Today.........

I love this color!!! Oh my gosh, can I see the whole house painted in this color or what?!??! Yesssssssss! Painter had some "employee" problems this morning and will have to come back tomorrow to finish up but this color is Yummmmmy. Lowe's Valspar Cupid's Arrow. Just absolutely lovely. Here's the room so far today.....


Laaazzzy Day

Just being lazy today and posting what I got in the mail. Thank you, Katie! They are gorgeous roses!!! I'll show what I do with them when I figure out what I'm gonna make.

I was given these adorable crocheted potholders a couple of years ago. Aren't they adorable? They are so cute in person.

Notice Something Strange Here??

I decided to look in the back of the fridge today and what do I see?! Just take a look. We mark all our food with a date. I think it's time to throw it OUT. Eleven years and still not eating it should say something about how much jelly and jams we use. Looks a bit suspicious to me when it starts turning white........sugar, perhaps?? Doesn't look like anything growing...... Oooooh, BTW, my office is in such a jumble that's the only place I could find in here to photograph it - the paint shelf!! :-)

Beautiful Mosaic Table

When we went down to California this summer I took an old table to daughter and then brought back a table she had. Look what she did with this vintage table and her gorgeous mosaic roses tiles!! Isn't that gorgeous? It will be for sale soon I think. I'll post it back here when it's ready. Maybe I should get it back from her. Hmmmmmm, what do ya think, chicks?? After all, she'll inherit it when I die!!!! Sheeeeshhhhhhh.........

She added the final tiles today and will grout tomorrow.


Close up view of the tiles.

Flittered Around AGAIN This Morning!

Reworked a little flea market lamp I bought years ago and has assumed many, many different styles! LOL I think I'm improving. Hahahaha......I can now see the stringy hot glue on the roses. Sheeeesh, I'm such a slob with glue guns!!
