Good Morning Everyone!

Well we woke up to snow here in Illinois today and it is still snowing.......aggggg......I am so ready for tulips, daffodils, and the sweet scent of a spring morning breeze! In the meantime though, I wanted to spend some time getting caught up with my favorite blogs, and I wanted to share this one with you.

If you love cottage, prim, and trash to treasure creations, you have to visit Appletree Cottage! Martha's amazing talent is such an inspiration to me! She has an incredible talent to take something that someone else would toss as old and unusable, and turn it into gorgeous pieces for your home. You can vist Martha and her beautiful creations at:

What I Have Been Working On Wednesday!

I so enjoyed doing my animal sitter blocks, that this week I decided to do another set for the upcoming summer season. I think I could do these blocks all day long they are so much fun to do. These would be great for anyone that loves to decorate in the Americana style. I am rather a perfectionist when it comes to my painting, and so these are a nice change of pace for me. The more rugged, and prim the better. I am hoping to have more for the upcoming holiday season, just haven't figured it all out yet........:)

I have a couple more projects in the works, that I hope I get finished in time to show you next week. I am hoping to get outside and get a little yard work done, along with some spring cleaning, so I am trying to do a little here and a little there.........we all know how that is. Have a great day everyone, and hope you enjoy the blocks!

Treasury of Cottage Style

Although I love to paint primitive art, I love the softness and simplicity of cottage style too! If you are looking for some great new pieces for your cottage syle home, check out the artisians in this treasury I just did for my street team, Old Farmhouse Gathering. Hope you enjoy!

Happy Monday!!

I hope everyone had a great weekend! I sure didn't get as much accomplished as I would have liked, but it was nice to do some relaxing for change also. I just wanted to share with you this morning a treasury that I just did featuring some great Etsy sellers, and wonderful primitive items. I am always looking for new things I just have to have, and this is a great variety. Clicks and comments are sure welcome, and the gals featured all appreciate them. Enjoy!!!
