Handpainted collage tag I've named the Sweet Ones Series. Aren't these children so cute? I handpainted with pastel chalks, vintage wallpaper, button, and flower, and a lovely pink satin ribbon.
I plan on making a few more with these children but all will be one of a kind collages.
It's finally getting mid week and my day job is taking its toll this week! Ready for a weekend!
Off to put little one to bed then myself. I'm sooo tired.
Very early on my Birthday morning. Mommy needs more off her juice called Dunkin Donuts coffee! Below is Mommy putting out my decorations and setting my Birthday table.
Check out my Chenille Rabbit. I LOVE it :)
All dressed up...where is my family..they don't tell time very well. I'm off to amuse myself with my balloon.
Lucky asking Mommy to have D quit boinking her with the balloon.Cookie has the smart idea---ran off to sleep on Mommy's bed. Her she is saying Get Out! Leave me alone :)
FINALLY! Cake!! Ice Cream!! Whooppppppeee...
FINALLY! Cake!! Ice Cream!! Whooppppppeee...
After!
The ice cream was my favorite! I passed out from all the sugar after a few hours. Mommy was tired but happy. 
Front door...I won this on Ebay. Can't say I got a bargain but I HAD to have it with the shape and the cute prim objects in it. Perfect for my maroon red door behind it!
Entryway..Okay, I'm not a big fan of fake flowers but I've collected these sweeties over the years and keep tossing them in this basket for a loose sweet feel. Last year I found these turkey feather looking picks and jabbed them in there. I like the messy just picked feel. I always have some kind of candy for D's starving friends!
Kitchen table--I'm one of those people that always has fresh flowers on the table and I found this gorgeous colored mum at Publix! 
Fireplace mantle with mixed media collage I made, MORE birdies, and a sweet pumpkin with leaves.
Other side of mantle. That pretty babe in the gorgeous black cottage frame is my sweet little one who will be 1 in a few weeks. LOVE the black and white photo! Peekiing out is my other FAVORITE bunnies!
Basket of sweetness of fall yummies--pumpkins, acorns, sweet Halloween basket I made, and my ceramic Birdies! I have many :)
Just a few vignettes around my house. I can never wait till the first day of Autumn. I did these last weekend! I LOVE the autumn colors---my absolute favorite time of year! Hope you enjoyed :)
Off to download some I Tunes for my FREE IPOD shuffle :)
Isn't this lantern sweet? I made it out of a chopped date box with colorful paper, ribbons, and pom poms. Adorable! It's for my daughter's birthday party. The theme is Berry Sweet.
This was made out of an old expresso bottle using vintage flowers, ribbons, and colored parfum tag by N.Burns.
here at the house on the unofficial end of Summer. September is a reminiscing month for me where I reflect on the past and look forward to the cooler weather. Although, here in the South we have at least 4 more weeks of high to low 80's. Nights will finally cool off. We are in the midst of very tropical air from Gustav and awaiting a dump of rain from Hannah. It's really needed here as we are in a severe drought.
I've decided to put my shops on hold for now. The Doc says I need to slow down a bit so I'll be concentrating on my crafty part of me to occupy that art passion. Learn some new techniques and enjoy my baby girl who will be 1 in a few short 6 weeks! Working FT outside the home and trying to run a shop, plus take care of my little one has depleted my health. Must do what the Doc says. I'll find out my test results by the end of the week.
I also bought my first autumn flower to start my Fall today. Isn't this a beauty?
Tomorrow starts the Sweet Six Retreat. It will be so much fun! I really need this distraction right now.
Enjoy the rest of your long weekend!
Crochet beauties with vintage buttons. Felt flower with vintage button. I have left off the pin backing as these could be used for embellishments too!
Just a few pics of my flowers on my deck. My dad made me the gorgeous cedar flower chest, it's perfect next to my back door which leads in the breakfast nook and kitchen. I'm growing lavender, sage, and coleus this year. It's just starting. Mom has numerous herb plants which she will share once they are big enough. Ohhh, I can't wait!
Check out the fun zebra pot I got at a local flower place :)
I have to share my front yard. After 8 years of living in a cookie cutter house (first time homeowners) I feel my gardens are finally coming to life! I never grew a garden before and the knowledge I did have was from growing up in New York. We don't have dirt here in South Carolina, it's red clay. It's taken almost 8 years of mulching to get some 'good' growing soil! I wish I had gotten a picture of my southern version of a lilac because it was the first year I had buds after 6 painful years :(
I haven't gotten to our back down by the fence mainly cause it's huge and the dogs have a track back there from running back and forth. We have a horse farm backing up to us. It's nice to have them come visit for an apple or carrot. Drives the dogs batty!
