Welcome to my blog!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I believe that everyone can have a beautiful home without spending a fortune! One of my favorite things to do is find creative ways to re-purpose things I already have on hand, or have picked up at yard sales and thrift stores. Join me as I share with you some of my favorite ideas for crafting and decorating, as well as travel adventures, and fun things that I pick up on my treasure hunts! Much of my work is influenced by my love all things French, nature, and of course shabby chic! I have gotten so many creative ideas from you very talented bloggers out there, and I hope that I can be an inspiration to you as well!

Cuteness




Hi, hope you all are having a good week.
For some reason whenever I get the camera out, a certain little pup by the name of Katie becomes camera shy.
She spent a few hours at the groomer yesterday, and came home looking oh so cute, complete with a new tie died bandana.  So of course I wanted to take her picture.
 Try as I might to get her to look at the camera, she suddenly becomes hard of hearing!

 Nothing seemed to work during our little photo shoot. She was oh so bored!
 And totally disinterested.....................
 I felt as if I were being snubbed................
 Ok, now we are getting somewhere!
Finally!
Going thru a challenging and stressful time here, with our house on the market, lots of showings, and an open house this weekend.
Thank God for Katie, she always brings a smile to my face no matter what life seems to throw my way.
Thanks for popping by, Katie says to tell you all
"Woof!!!"
Which means: "Have a great weekend!"

Hi Donna, Katie is oh so adorable. She takes great pics. So sweet in her little scarf.
Good luck with the showings and open house.
I'm on my phone. Storms are hitting us right now with hail and high winds.
Hugs, CM

How cute Katie is...and you got some cute shots of her! My Angel is like that too! Either she snubs me or she's so busy running around that she becomes a blur in shots of her. LOL!!

Donna, Thank you honey, I needed a good laugh. Katie's indifference to the camera just made me laugh out loud. She grew to be a sweet dog, didn't she. Bless you, xoxo,Susie

Katie is so cute and at least she stayed in the chair! Charlie won't sit still for photos at all, I have to sneak them. Selling your home is very stressful so be sure to take some time for yourself!
hugs,

Katie is adorable! She seems to have loads of personality! How old is she? What breed?

That Katie, paying the little hard to get gal. LOL
She sure looks very pretty. Are you sure she's not mad at you for taking her to the groomers?
Hope you get a offer on the house and that everything will fall into place for you.
Waldo and Lili liked Katie's photo's and send doggie kisses.

she is just a cutie pie. But you know that I am crazy about spaniel.
Oh I can relate. Our house is on the market as well. Last Sunday we had an open house. We have had lots of showings. Houses are going in to contracts, wishing ours would soon. We were listed from July to November last year and no offers. It's like you live in a fish bowl. Strangers in your house. You walk back in and you can smell their cologne. I want my privacy back. But, my house is clean. Hah. Good luck with yours.

I'm glad your Katie brings joy to your heart, Donna. She's a real cutie.

Katie is adorable! How are you managing all the people coming through? I think I would go mad. Prayers for you until you get it sold and praying that happens soon for you! Have a fun weekend! ;)
