My dear friend's daughter turned 7 the other day and the birthday party was hosted by my friend's mother at her gorgeous home. The pictures are but a brief glimpse. Her home is filled, FILLED, with to-die-for antiques. And she sets up the most amazing vignettes. See for yourself:
This is the shed in the backyard
Happy Birthday Cutie Pie!
I am updating my blog links list. If you would like to be included, please leave me a comment with your blog name and url. If you would be so kind as to reciprocate, I would be delighted!
Oh! I forgot to mention- I have opened a wee etsy shop,VintageWorkshop. I will be selling banners, tags, business cards, gift certificates, and anything else you might need for your business endeavors. Check it out!
There is a great fellow blogger, Daleea, who hosts auctions to raise money for children with medical needs. I have donated a few blog banners and there are lots of other items to bid on.
If you would like to donate or bid, please visit her blog Jewels of My Heart and the auction blog is One Child at a Time
I wanted to mention my lovely friend Terri. She has the neatest website offering art and antiques. Be sure to swing by and take a peek! Journey And Landscape.
A wonderful surprise came in the mail from Germany today! My Scavenger Hunt Swap package from Nicole! It really brightened my day! Look!
Because a few people dropped out, I was fortunate enough to have several swap partners! Lucky for me! I will post pictures of my outgoing swaps!
I will also be adding a few things to my etsy shop.
I have been so busy at work lately, I haven't had much energy to craft and create! You see, I am a career firefighter/medic! Which means I spend a 24 hr shift surrounded by dirty yucky fire and EMS stuff! That is why my house is filled with soft, feminine vintage treasures! :)
Oceans of love,
B
my moo cards came in last week!
I am having all sorts of fun with paper lately. I will add these to etsy later.
I spotted my lovely friend and neighbor this morning wearing one of the necklaces I made for her. I am so glad she enjoys them!
In other news, I will be shipping Heidi her goodies for ArtsyMama's May Basket Swap! I hope she likes it! I am looking forward to seeing my basket. Heidi is very creative. Be sure to check out her blog and etsy shop!
In memory and support of those involved in the senseless tragedy of the events at Tech. May peace find it's way into the midst of those suffering, and may strength be with those tending the wounded, both in body and spirit. May compassion and love reach all affected by this tragedy. May grace be present in the hearts of our nation. I send my prayers to those in my state and across the world.
What a better way to kick-off my new blog than with a swap!?! Details above .... more to follow!
xoxo-B
Change is good
