The Recent Hico Show and More Pictures From Judy Hill's Home Show

My friend Lynda and I recently set up at the Homestead Antique Show in Hico Tx. and had a wonderful time. I've been trying to load the pictures that we took from our phone's {SINCE I LEFT MY CAMERA IN OUR ROOM} but can't seem to get them loaded but will keep trying, but for now I will share more pictures from my good friend Judy Hill's recent home show.



Lovely table.... I'm so loving the old bucket with the plant inside.

Gorgeous white cabinet, with the industrial table... love the two mixed.

Oh now this is one piece that I wanted to bring home with me, but didn't as I'm trying to downsize my treasures at home. Isn't it a beauty?

Hope you enjoyed and have a great day!!!

Judy Hill's Home Show

We had a wonderful time at my dear friend Judy Hill's Home Show this past Thursday. Judy has an amazing talent for decorating and her displays are always gorgeous. I can literally brows for hours. Here are a few of the pictures that I took, take a look for yourself.

I just loved this room. The white really poped with the dark walls.

It's hard to pick a favorite but I think this room was at the top of my list. I love the shutters all across the wall, their gorgeous!!!

This little lady was in the entrance way. So cute!

Hope you enjoyed. I will be showing more pictures soon!!!

Sweet Gifts From A Precious Friend

My sweet friend Lynda visted Rachell Ashwell's beautiful place in Round Top Tx. recently for a jewelry workshop. You can read her first post about it by scrolling down to the next post. She will be sharing more pictures soon. Lynda makes beautiful sterling silver jewelry and wanted to expand to making vintage inspired jewelry. Lynda surprized me a few days ago by giving me one of her first pieces of vintage inspired jewelry, and OMG it's absolutlely gorgeous!!! Well just check it out for yourself.

I'm very excited to annouce that we will be carring Lynda's new jewelry line on our website within the next few months. You can check out her website here at www.lyndacade.com Now I want to share another beautiful gift that my dear friend Lynda gave me after the jewelry retreat at Rachell Ashwell's. She visted Rachel's linen store and gave me the most beautiful pillow slips that you can see in the next pictures coming up.

This was on the front of the bag that she gave me. Who wouldn't get excited when seeing Rachel Ashwell's name on the bag.

When I opened the bag.... the most beautiful and soft pillow slips.

I've decided their to gorgeous to use. I will just display them on my bed.

I'll post again when we get the vintage jewelry on our website, it will take a little time for her to get everything ready as Lynda also has a full time job. Hope everyone has a great week!!!

Fun With Jewelry at Round Top

I enjoyed the most delightful jewelry retreat at The Prairie in Round Top, last week. Ahhh...wish I could go back. Imagine a group of happy jewelry-makers creating all things beautiful in the most relaxing, shabby surroundings. The week was truly a dream come true! Check out our workspace...one couldn't help but be inspired.

Here's my "special assigned seat" complete with a sweet card and darling gifts:


I've attended hundreds of workshops over the years, but never have I been treated as such a "Queen for the Day!" :o) My heart-felt thanks to Barb of Vivi Magoo Presents for an amazing and unforgettable event. She made us all feel so welcome and special. I WILL be attending Barb's next amazing event.

I especially enjoyed Rachel Ashwell's Round Top hide-away. My dear friend and talented pmc mentor, Lisa Monroe (you gotta check out her beautiful jewelry...to die for!) were fortunate enough to stay at Rachel's Liliput Lodge. The smell old wood and comforts of shabby linens stirred fond memories of my Georgia roots.

I stayed in the "Blue Room"....ahhhh! It was pure heaven:

Liliput Blue Room

I hope you enjoy the sweet surroundings as much as I did:

Bluebonnet Cottage - Too Sweet!

The Lodge - This is Where We "Worked"

We actually did get some work done.
It was an honor and privilege to study under two talented artists, Deryn Mentock and Diane Cook. Thank you for giving me the courage to mix my metals. :o)

It's that Time Again!

I'll be heading to Canton tomorrow with goodies to take to Laurie Anna's store. I have pictures of the store from last month. I know I'm really late showing them, but better late than never.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures. I have been so busy lately not much time to blog, and now that their fixing to change the blog dash board I hope I can figure it all out when I do get some extra time!

So Glad To Be Back

I've missed you. It's been over a month since my last post. My computer crashed soon after my last post. I took it to be repaired but it's gone to it's final resting place. I was without a computer for almost 3 weeks. I wanted to thank all of our new followers and I also want to thank everyone who left such sweet comments about our lake house post and for those of you who left great decorating tips. I will be around to visit as soon as I can. I'm so far behind on my website after being without my computer, it's going to take me a little while to get new products up. I hope to have a large amount of it up by next week. Thought I would share a few of the things that will be added soon.

Hope you enjoyed a peek at some of our Spring items. We have lots more to add. I'll show more ictures next week as soon as I get things added to the website
