It snowed on and off almost all day yesterday! You don't know how rare that is in this part of Georgia - we don't usually get snow until February. I was inspired by the snow to make my own snowy, glittery village. So I pulled out my little glitter houses from last year.Here are some closeups.That glittery deer is the only new thing I bought - $10 at Target. I saw a standing one at TJ Maxx but it ...

I had to put the last of it in the freezer and I'll make turkey soup in a few weeks when the thought of it won't be quite so distasteful. I didn't go anywhere but the thrift store on Black Friday. Nothing ever seems like such a good deal to make me want to mess with the crowds at the mall or ... Read More about Red Table

The dog ... Read More about Frugal Doings This Week

I had a few left over so I thought I'd pot some up and put them on my deck so we could enjoy them from inside the house come spring.Have you ever triple layered bulbs in containers? It's a great way to ... Read More about Triple Layer Bulbs and A Pillow Makeover
Checks & Harlequins
Come on in! I'm busy painting so I thought I'd just share a few pictures with you today. When you walk through my home you're sure to see a few recurring themes or motifs! Not so many that you can actually say something like "Wow, she really likes cows!" type of thing, but enough so that there's a unifying feeling that flows from room to room.Today I'll just show the check & harlequin ...
