Do you SEE all that DETAIL?

Have you done this?    Could you?

 I am going to join the Pinterest fan club!!!

Just waiting for my invite...

Just why have I waited so long?!

 Could it be that I just

knew better?

I've spent half the morning gazing
at all that is beautiful.

I better go spend time with The Mr. before he has to

head back to San Diego for the work week.

By "spend time" I mean get him started on the

'Honey Do" list.

                                        1. put up curtain rods

                                        2. hang  a mirror

                                        3. hang pictures

                                        4. install earthquake stuff

                                        5. fix delicious dinner

But wait...

Don't forget to check out the Bunny Hop Party!

I haven't had many comments about it...

Sort of lost my momentun after that year long break I took.
(sniff)

I guess it isn't easy getting a new party

up and "hopping"!

ALSO...

I would very much appreciate if you would  

take a button home to share for just a bit.

I redid the button so that it is not hopping up and down.

Cute as that is at first, I'm sure it could get annoying.

If you prefer the Hopping Bunny Button then go here.

The party is on Wednesdays and will be open

to link up on every Tuesdays at noon.

I hope you are enjoying your weekend!

Spring Pillows that are SEW Pretty!

These pretty Spring inspired pillow ideas 

are from Better Homes and Gardens.

Yes, I am still having camera issues,

but wanted to share something

with you anyway.

I hope they brighten your day.

Enjoy!

Aren't these colorful tulip pillows

just too darn cute?!

The next pillow is "slipcovered"

with linen napkins.

This stylish tweedy pillow reminds

me of a pink Chanel suit!

Is your name Madison?

These last two pillows reminded me

of one of my favorite blogs,

Cozy Little House.

I think this colorful little yoyo pillow

would look at home anywhere in

Brenda's "cozy little house!

Years ago, in the 70's, I had a box

full of old yoyos and cut circles

given to me my my mother.

She had just moved out of her

home and into a mobile home and

just didn't have room to store

extra boxes of "old stuff".

(She was in her mid 60's and

lived to be 97 years old.)

Anyway, they were made out of old

dresses in small prints and calicos.

They were from the 1920's and I

believe she and her sister made them.

Well since I was in my 20's I just

didn't understand their value...

and so after we moved a few times

I was "convinced" to give them up them.

I am not even sure what

really ever happened to them.

Were they tossed or given away?

Such remorse... and guilt!!!
