March is here!

I love March.

It signals the beginning of spring,

and it is my birthday month.

Did you know that in the Roman calendar

it was originally the first month of the year?

The year consisted of 10 months

for a total of 304 days. According to tradition,

the Roman ruler Numa Pompilius added

January and February to the calendar.

{I know you just needed that info today. lol.}

I adore the beautiful spring flowers

lily-of-the-valley.

{I borrowed this photo off our local Christian radio's

facebook site}

Pretty soon we will be seeing these spring beauties called

trillium.

Our apple trees will break forth with gorgeous blossoms...

...including our flowering pear tree.

I found this photo when I was searching online for

Spring flowers. Haven't a clue what it is, but it sure is

pretty.

This one remains nameless also.

I was caught off guard by Wednesday creeping

up on me again before I was ready so I opted

for white spring flowers. A few photos that I took in the past added to some

that I found online.

Are you ready for Spring...I know I am!!

Life IS Beautiful in White

I made some more jelly jar candleholders yesterday

and I also made a couple mini ones.

I love how they turned out.

My sisters version of a coconut cake that she found in Life Beautiful magazine. She made it for Easter. She used the recipe in the magazine and her hubby told her it was the best cake he had ever had. YUMM!! Didn't she do a beautiful job??

Please note:

I am having some trouble with blogger today

when trying to post your comments.

It will go to "error" when I try to post them

or they will just totally disappear.

I am also having trouble leaving comments for

some of you. When I go to post it I also get

the error message. I will try again later. I hope it starts working right soon!

White Wednesday treasures {a little early}

I cannot visit my daughter without going

treasure hunting and I found

some amazing items at great prices!

this apothcary jar stands 16 and 1/4 inches tall

and it was only 9.99 at Home Goods...

my favorite store~

I just love antique lace and have been looking for

some in narrow widths and they are pretty hard to find.

Imagine my sheer delight when I found a quart size

ziploc bag stuffed full of beautiful antique lace

for $3.00!

Yards and yards of beautiful lace!

couldn't pass up this vintage hat loaded with

lily-of-the-valley millinery...$4.00

more of the luscious lace !

I also purchased the beautiful linens that the hat

is laying on ...4 napkins,12 placemats and 1

long runner....regular $28 for $8.00!

a beautiful tattered pillow that I also found at

Home Goods

salt and pepper shakers for $3.00.

I have more goodies to share , but will save

them for another day.

I hope you have a beautiful day today.

Be sure and visit Kathleen {on Wednesday}

at Faded Charm for more beautiful WW posts.

Sweet Holiday Images

I have no profound words today...(LOL) as I have been busy doing "this and that" after arriving home from church today so I just thought I would share a couple images with you . Aren't these just the sweetest ever?? I just love the girl picture! This is a very old card with a few spots on and above her hat, but I love it anyways. I also don't think I have ever seen a pink rose Christmas postcard quite like this one either. I love it as well and I hope you do too. Enjoy and blessings!
