Winter brings out the kid in me

Yesterday I was longing for Spring, but instead we got dumped on with about 6 inches
of snow. I posted on facebook  that "I should go out and build a snowman"...just kinda
joking around. Then I thought , "WHY NOT?"...so i did just that!! 

I had this little lady made in about 15 minutes or less. I realize her scarf should be long
enough to go all around her neck , but I just grabbed stuff and improvised.

I think she turned out pretty cute. I got a couple of takers on facebook who want me
to go to their house and make one. lol. It was fun to be a "kid" again.  Keeps us
young right?? :)

Wonderment ~

won.der.ment

astonishment, surprise

my beautiful little granddaughter

this precious little gal is only 2 years old

and she has played more in the snow

than our 10 year old granddaughter.

she loves the outdoors

and is a very active little girl.

{i snagged these photos from my son and daughter-in-law's blog}

Vintage Hats ~

Aren't these vintage hats just gorgeous? I have listed them in my Etsy store today as I continue to downsize my *PRETTIES*. If you are interested just click here. I need to get some money coming in instead of going out...seems like as fast as it come in these days...POOF...it is gone ~

I love the velvet ribbon and bling attached to this one...so neat~ Enjoy ~

My Space to Create Treasures

I don't have any time today to create so I thought I would share a few pix of "my creative space". This room makes me smile whenever I walk in it, but truth be known I usually move things out of here to the kitchen or dining room table or both to create and then I have stuff laying all over the house. Last night my hubby said with a smile, "it is sad that we have two tables and we are standing at the kitchen counter to eat". LOL So I promptly cleared off a space at the kitchen table. Enjoy!

Shabby Vintage

I thought I would add a few more decor pictures. I absolutely love this picture! I got it at Home Goods a couple years ago for 4.99! However, I haven't quite got the wall decor along with it figured out and everytime I look at it , it drives me crazy! :) In the corner by this wall I have an old creamy white shutter with a clock on it in the same colors as the picture and a loveseat is underneath with a white cover and a quilted throw with the colors in the picture as well so if anyone has any ideas please feel free to share them with me.

I just couldn't pass up these adorable shoes especially with the vintage millinery included.

This is one of my favorite photographs of another corner in my living room. I purchased the candle sconce at the Goodwill for $3.00!! I hope everyone has a wonderful day today!

Simple Treasures

I get so thrilled over my simple yet beautiful finds. I found this hat and the vintage sachets at my local antique store yesterday and I fell in love with them. This hat will fit in with all the other vintage hats that I have accumulated over the years. I have purchased several hats with the intent of taking them apart for the vintage millinery on them, but I just couldn’t do it so they are now on display in my home. The sachets are just so adorable also and I just couldn’t pass them up...and they were on SALE so that is even better!
