                                        Almost NO SEW Projects! Friday, July 3, 2015. Ahh July and Summer is really full on! It is time to put some simple summery touches in the decor around here. Using "what I have" and not spending any money is my challenge. There are some things that just say "SUMMER". It is just a matter of gathering those things and placing them around the house! This nice big stack of fluffy white towels on the rack in the master bathroom certainly says "Summer"! Nothing could be easier! The Hurricane Lantern is one of s...

Some plastic decal sheets. It was a simple matter of prin...

Making a hand tied bouquet of flowers is a great thing to know how to do. But before I show the way to do this.let me tell you some "stuff" about one of my favorite flower. The origin of the word Daisy is the Anglo Saxon “daes eage†which literally mean “ day’s eye. The picture on the left is the Mom of the little guy on the right! Cutting them often has ...

You have probably already seen the Fairy Garden in the old birdbath.but if you haven't. Well I was at Tonkadale Nursery the other day.and I was lusting after the Fairy Houses. I think I have the perfect spot along the front entry walk for a Fairy Garden. Maybe I would splurge and actually by a Fairy House. Wellthat's what I thought until I saw the prices. Where else would you go to shop for a fairy house than eFairies.com.

                                        Almost NO SEW Projects! Sunday, July 26, 2015. Burlap Pocket Bulletin Board. I bought this burlap coffee sack at a little coffee shop a few months ago. It was only $5.00. I had no idea. What I would do with it.but the graphic look of the stencil was too cool to pass up. I decided to update the message center in the kitchen with a pocket bulletin board. The pockets on a board like this are a great way to have things right at hand without cluttering up your workspace or poking holes in photos or invitations.

We really enjoyed this spot when we were there last October. The "ship" is actually a Casino! The two glass structures are the Gardens By the Bay. These huge "terrarium" like buildings house the Flower Dome and the Cloud Dome. This is a picture that was hanging in the family room. A few weeks ago I rematted it and when I did. the glass cracked. I was ver...

I posted about these cushions for the patio chairs when I made them 2 years ago. I noticed last week how much the elements have taken a toll on them. And to tell you the truth.I am kinda "over" the Greek Key design. It was time for a refreshed look for these babies! This is a perfect example of that! Last Summer I found this fabric on the $5 a yard shelf. I bought 2 yards. Fold both sides in and press flat.

I always know that fall has truly arrived when it is time to harvest the hydrangeas! You can see by my Blog Header that I LOVE Hydrangeas! Two weeks ago these beautiful blooms were a glorious spot of color in the lower garden! But after just a couple of cool nights, they started to harden off. Time to pick them and bring them into the house to enjoy! Look at this Faux Hydrangea Wheat Garland from Pottery Barn.
