How Quickly...Much to Quickly

The Holidays have come and gone.  I can't even remember when I went shopping, when did I do the Christmas Dinner, when did I wrap?? New Years came the same way like a whrirl wind.  But when you take a moment, sit back and think about what is important that is what I remember the most, "Family"..the love in your home the unity and bond that no one can separate...





                                              27 Years of collecting Ornaments!


                                          Many Wonderful wishes for 2012!





Yes! the Holidays came and went but it's the special moments we hold in our hearts that count.


Remembering Dad 11-06-2011 we will never forget you!

This Week..I'm Feeling..........The Pink!!!

Found these pieces hidden away..forgotten treasures that I never bother to look at.  I knew there was still hope for these pieces.  Not so pretty, with appliques of peppers, onions and garlic..so I sanded down all of the unsightly sights a quick prime I also added so pretty appliques...and....Wallah!!!  Total new fresh look, pretty shabby pink home decor..

Letter Holder/Napkin Holder, Jewelry Box and Napkin Holder...Not bad huh???

This Napkin holder had the ugliest plastic applique of red peppers...got rid of them and added this lovely Barbola Roses Applique.

Here is a sneak peek of the before on this letter/napkin holder gives you and idea on how the both looked.


The Letter/Napkin holder was right up the same path as the napkin holder...plastic appliques with garlic, peppers and onion designs..




Saving my favorite for last..This Fabulous Jewelry Box..originally retro 1950's style..again, I added the applique and the result are Sweet in Pink!

Hope you enjoyed this brief presentation of how I was feeling this week...who knows what the heck I'll be feeling next week..Stop back!!

All these pretties are listed on my Etsy.
Have a wonderful weekend..
