Pink Saturday

I  am having a wonderful Saturday out working in my yard, The Texas heat is very warm, I am just trying to stay in the shade as much as possible. It has been a while since I have had a week-end that I could do much needed yard work. My guy and I have been working on a special project I can't wait to share.

 I just love the colorful Crape Myrtles.

Hope you all have a Happy Day!

I am joining Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for Pink Saturday, 

Bedroom Make Over

A bedroom make over. My favorite thing is the saying above the bed. Found this at Canton and had to have it. The colors were perfect for this room and it has so much meaning to me.

 Everything you see came from flea markets, items I picked up while junkin, and from my grandmother's  house.

 The things from my grandmother's house are the things I treasure the most.She really did not think she had anything. My aunt was visiting and she said how proud she would be to know some one loved her things.

 Truly my grandmother had a very shabby chic house. You can look through my blog and see all the  beautiful things I have collected from her.

Hope you have a happy Wednesday. 

Easter Memories

Looking at Easter pictures and thinking how fast time goes by. 

 Our sweet grandchildren were at our house. They had so much fun hunting eggs.

 All dressed up for church. We love spending time with them and their parents. We are blessed!

Savannah

My sweet guy suggested we go somewhere for Spring break. We headed to Savannah, Georgia. It was so nice. A trip to Savannah would not be complete without eating at the Lady and Sons. I was so hoping that Paula Deen would come in, but that did not happen. The food was great and the people there were so nice. This was such a nice break from work.

I love Savannah!

White Wednesday

I am so happy I found the perfect mirror at Canton, It was only twenty dollars, all  brown and not so pretty, I wish I would have taken a before picture. The dresser is from my grandmother's house, it is all chippy. I love it!

I am in the process of changing our bedroom from  pastel pink to white and burlap colors. I have the best guy in the world, he lets me decorate how ever I want, but he said I am glad the pink is going.

A White Christmas

We had a beautiful white Christmas in East Texas. It was such a blessing to spend time with our children and grandchildren.

 

Happy New Year

~ I want to wish you all a very Happy New Year ~

Pumpkins and Mums

Nothing says fall like pumpkins and mums.

 I have never had white mums, I decided to make a change this year and I love them.

BOO

                                          I got a cute new boo banner

I love the scrabble pieces

Happy Fall

   We are having cooler weather here in East Texas.  Fall is definitely in the air.
                                                       HAPPY MONDAY!

Metamorphosis-Monday

I am joining Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphosis-Monday.

I have been scouring Craig's list for a long time looking for the perfect buffet. Looking all over the Texas area. One Saturday Morning I found this one in East Texas, less than 30 minutes from my house.

It was just what I had been looking for. It was perfect in every way, well , it was not white. That is never a problem for me.

With a little paint, here is the final product, and I just love it,

The details are just beautiful on the doors.

 All the little scrolls on the top just add to the character.

 The mirror above it came from a local flea market and my guy added to it.

The difference between the dark color of the buffet and now that is it white is just unbelievable. I am just so drawn to the lighter colors.

I am linking up too Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphosis-Monday and

Nature's Beauty

Just sharing flowers around our yard. This summer has been so much better for East Texas. Last summer we had record heat and no rain.  

 I wish you could smell the roses, they smell so good.

All colors of crape myrtles. 

Cannas grow no matter what, I have moved them all over my yards and they just continue to grow and reproduce. 

Sunflowers are beautiful.

We are trying our luck at growing lemons and limes. I never dreamed the we could grow them in East Texas.

We have them on our patio, I can't wait till they are ready to pick

Hope you all have a fabulous Friday!

Ann Perry's Beautiful Greenhouse

This such a beautiful greenhouse. This was featured in Flea Market Style along with an article about Ann. 

Her husband and sons built this for her. She was so sweet to let us come and take a tour.I can't describe how peaceful it was. Butterflies were fluttering all around in it.

It is like being in a little church. I do not think I would ever go back in my house if I had this in my backyard.

She said she had collected things for a long time to go into her greenhouse. She has such a gift.

Old watering cans hanging up

 Just an old sink full of flowers.

She has a little shoppe beside her home called the" Tin Rabbit." She has sales a couple of time each year. I cannot wait until she has one, she also has a booth in the Heritage Antique Mall in Lufkin, Texas. You should make a trip over, you will not be disappointed.

This little rabbit welcomes you as you enter her shoppe.
