Master Bedroom Pinning
Well, I had time on my hands in my day this week while out on school visits. Not enough time to go back to the office but too much time to be idle. Two thoughts kept running through my brain. 1. I want to change the look of our master bedroom. 2. If we get the […]

Weekend Finds at Canton
Saturday could not have been a better day to go to one of the oldest and largest Trade Days in Texas. The sun was shining and it was 62degrees when we pulled up. We pulled up to the site with about 100,000 others. We are parked across the street from that line of cars. Somewhere in […]

Mr. and Mrs. Pillows
The Southern Belle came to visit! YAY! Yippee! Woo Hoo! Is it possible to tell that we were excited to have our girl here for a visit? The only problem was that our son in law, Big Cat, stayed home. More on him later, but he was missed. My newly wed daughter really missed her […]

1970’s Fabulous China Cabinet
I am going to continue looking back at some of my 1970’s repurpose projects. I hope that when you find 1970’s furniture at resale and thrift shops, you take a chance on it, or better yet, bring it to me. I will gladly accept your gift and make it fun. A while back I bought […]

Decorating the Mantle for Christmas Without Breaking the Bank
I decided that this year I would use what I have on hand to decorate the mantle. Over the year I had purchased a dictionary at a resale shop for 50 cents, I picked up a rough bulletin board when my neighbor moved out, I purchased a torn up hymnal at a garage sale for […]
