Hi everyone! Do you remember when I posted that I wished I had a bunny tray and that I had been searching for one for years to add to my dining room tray collection?
Well sweet Julie emailed me to say that she had an extra one that she wanted to send me- would I like it! SQUEAL!! Would I ever! Doing a happy dance! Here it is!!

Thank you so much Julie! That was unbelievably generous of you to part with one (they’re hard to find). You made my wish come true!
THEN I happened to mention to Vickie that I was planning on adding some beadboard to my dining room but wasn’t sure if I should go the real paneling route or the wallpaper route. She suggested the wallpaper. She also happened to have a roll from a project that she had done that she offered to send to me so I could try it out! Look at this huge roll she sent!
Thank you so much Vickie! I already have a little project I’m going to use it for and it’s such a help to be able to play with it to see what height I want to do in that room.
Both these ladies did something lovely for me without even really “knowing” me and sometimes saying “Thank You” just doesn’t feel like it’s enough!
But…from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU!
Thank you also to all you of you who take the time out of your busy day to read this blog! I hope you all have a lovely weekend!
