I just wanted to share this adorable sign my sister-in-law scored! She picked it up at an antique store. It belonged to a local landmark cafe in her town. I have to say it looks great in her kitchen!!

I absolutely adore summer! The flowers, the smell of fresh cut grass,cold ice tea,sitting on my swing,long walks in the evening right when the lightening bugs come out, and wearing sandals. Anyway I thought I would share some pics of my yard this summer.















Yard Decor

This is some of my yard decor outback. I owe the beautiful landscaping to my wonderful hubby who loves to make it
look like a park. I do all the flowers though.








My dining room

These are some pics of my dining room. I really love the way it turned out. After two months of painstakingly stripping barkcloth wallpaper from the walls. The result was worth it. You will also notice my obsession with toleware trays and old rose plates.














Hello to all you fellow bloggers I have created this blog because my darling baby boys have grown into darling grown men. So now I'am faced with being an empty nester. So with all this extra time I have decided to embark on this blogging thing. I have apassion for decorating and taking something and making it beautiful. So I hope you will enjoy visiting my blog.
