Target :)

So I was strolling through Target today and fell in love, love, Love with this lamp. I dont know what it is about it? Its just so simple. I want it. Dont know that I need it. I dont, but I could surely find a place for it. It would sure look good in my house. Had to take a picture of it. Oh and these sweet little vas'es with flowers. So simple, so sweet. The photo turned out great, just had to show it too. Isnt Target great?! I love their stuff. Its like a party for my eyes :)

Happy Friday

Delight in Simple Things

My neighbors plant bloomed a single yellow flower. I noticed it right away because I knew it was not there the day before. I don't know how long it will stay but plan to admire it each time I pass. Take notice of the beauty around you each day. It will give you a sense of wonder and joy for just being alive.

Sidewalk Sale

So last weekend I was able to go to laredo to purchase more these rod iron items I sell at my rent spot. Homestead was having their sidewalk sale this weekend. I was able to finish it (I had to spray paint it) in time for the sale.

Hope your weekend went wonderful and you found some time of relaxation and fun.

New Projects

New project this past weekend. Id seen small match box's covered, so I decided to purchase large match box's and adorn them.

I covered each box with different scrapbook paper. I sewed some crystal gems and small beads into small flowers with small peice of green ribbon behind it and glued it down on top.

I will be selling them at my rent spot at homestead. They turned out quit lovely and sweet.

Walk Your Path

I believe we all must walk our own path. As individuals we have dreams and aspirations. Choose to chase your dreams and push forward. Go ahead and full-fill that which you are passionate about. Find what thrills you to from the tip of your head down to the tip of your toes! We are better people to be on the path to becoming who we were meant to be. Reach your potential.Grasp onto that dream. Walk your path.

Seize everyday as an adventure and your spirit will soar when you discover the wonderful surprises life has to offer.

fresh Inspiration

Well, I have seemed to find inspiration again. Sometimes I have felt as though I lose my vision for a while, my purpose, my way. But lately I feel as though the light has shown through. Ive been inspired. Why now? What's different, I ask myself? I know... I feel loved. I feel like I belong somewhere. People who genuinely care about me. My husband, my family, my friends. When I feel loved, I feel like I can conquer the world, make a difference, handle the unknown.

I have learned that people will forget what you said, forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel -Maya Angelou

Cup Cake Platter Project

This is my hand at trying a project I saw. It was so easy and came out lovely. I found these items at the Good-Will. This pile of items cost $6.50. the glass lid was only 99 cents!

Glue the candle holder to the bottom of the plate. Any adhesive glue will work. Make sure it says for porcelain. This one said dish washer safe.Let dry over night.

Viola! Sweet adorable cup cake plates and a cute cheese plate. This project was so easy and inexpensive... Ok... Sweet and Cheap!

Scatter them. Look at all the sweet lovely florals and colors.

Or stack them. What ever suits your fancy. Now go and throw a brunch and show of your adorable up-cycling project. How clever you are :)

A Tribute To My Mother

As a child she was my nurturer , loving me and providing for all my needs.

She was my world.

As a teen she was my encourager, my cheerleader, showing me how to be the best I could be.

She was my teacher.

As an adult she has become my friend, she lifts me up and has become a women whom I admire.

She is my hero.

She is a women that has grown in grace and beauty with a pure soul and a clean heart.

I am proud to call her, my Mother.

I love you Mom, Happy Mothers Day

Saturday

Just another day of play and relaxation. Arising early with a plan, I set out on my mission. Panera for a chocolate croissant, garage sales, and crafting. Searching for my treasures gave me such pleasure, and though I did not find what I was looking for I did find other things for a deal. So I progressed onward to one of my favorites. Good Will... and I struck Gold. I am so excited I cant wait to share. Stay tuned as I turn some one's castoffs into into something beautiful. I did not have time to put it all together today but will show you step by step... On Monday :)

P.S.

Don't forget to celebrate your Mother tomorrow.

A pretty slip

A Slip: usually made of a smooth and slippery fabric such as silk, satin, polyester,nylon, or cotton. They are often decorated with lace at the edges and hem, and are typically worn over more intimate undergarments. Slips are also worn for modesty under translucent outer garments.

This slip was at Roundtop Antique show. Slips were all the rage. Very pretty feminine and decorative, the more embellished the better.

Being a lady is an attitude. - Chuck Wooley

Bloom

"If you've never been thrilled to the very edges of your soul by a flower in spring bloom, maybe your soul has never been in bloom" - Audra Foveo

Now is the time, plant your flowers. Bloom where you are planted.

Why blog?

The minute I entered into the blogesphere world my eye's were opened and amazed. All the beautiful, creative insightful blogs out there. Though at first I thought why would anybody want to read or care what I had to say or think? I soon changed my mind.I do have something to say, to share. It is my outlet, its my therapy, its my quiet little peaceful world I get to create and inspire others. I would like the world to see through my eyes and come to find that beauty is bestowed before us daily - So take note. I like to encourage my readers to open the eyes of their heart and find that extraordinary lives in every ordinary day we are alive. Blogging inspires me to create, reminds me to stop and smell the flowers, and encourages me to cherish those precious moments God gives us. Life... is...so beautiful" And for this, I am grateful.
