How Boo tiful!

This weekend brought cool air to our region. A great time to start on some glittery Halloween items for the shop! Lime green, orange, purple, and black are all great Halloween colors.


Purple stars are yet to come. Check back soon for the shop update!
What do you think about my haunted houses?? Okay hubby informed me they are Spooky churches, just as well. Does it matter what kind of structure it is? If it is haunted it is haunted!! These will be listed in a few days if I decide to sell them. Want to see what everyone thinks first;)

My Favorite Daughter..My Favorite Son

My Girly-Girl and Free-Spirited Son: They are different in SO many ways but they do have some of the same great qualities. They are very bright, passionate, good-natured, responsible, dependable, determined, tenacious, respectful, hard working, and animal lovers. The hard working quality is more geared toward working outside of our home..of course!
It is a rare occasion to get them to pose for a picture together. I certainly grab the opportunity every chance that I can get.

Last Saturday we had an open house for my daughter's College Graduation.
My son is currently working on driving lessons.

I am blessed and very proud.

They are my favorites!!

Kitchen Favorites

I purchased this ceramic plaque from a Covered Bridge Festival. The sad thing is it fell over when I displayed it and it cracked in half. I was upset. It was too cute to throw away, so a little glue and I keep it above my kitchen cabinets. You cannot see the crack from there.
I purchased this wine holder from the same festival! I love the colors and the painted roses.
A teapot cookie jar that I received as a housewarming gift from a relative that has sinced passed. The top cup removes to store your cookies in! This also sits atop the cabinets. I do not want this broken.
The Covered Bridge Festival has lots of great finds. I purchased these two pitchers from there. I love the vintage look and colors.

Thanks for looking...show me your kitchen favorites
