It's Truly Summer with Gatherings Magazine!

 




































Hello + Hello!
I'm so excited to stop in here after a more than adventurous trip across the United States to Atlanta, Georgia for a long buying trip to let you know that a special event occured whilst I was away....

Gatherings Magazine is now available, and ready for your viewing pleasure!

Some of you may have already had the chance to see the magazine....but while I was off taking care of business....all I could think of was: "Gosh, I wish I had a nice soft lounge chair by the side of a pool right now so I could sit down and enjoy a cool drink and a copy of Gatherings Magazine."

SO, I encourage you to hop on over to the Gatherings site and check out our Farwell Issue which is jam-packed with inspiration and beauty just for you this Summer!

Speaking of Summer, I hope yours is going well! Mine has been really great and I can't complain....other than it seems to be going too fast and I feel a little over busy....but hey...time flies when you're having fun right?!

Enjoy the magazine...and let me know what you think of my Market Report ok?

Cheers!

How it's all Coming Together


Hello + Hello!
I've found the happy spot for my new "hello" sign from The Farm Chicks Show!! 

So pleased it fit where I wanted it to go & that I was still able to get the little industrial shelf in too! Now to wash the little bottles that came with it & start applying labels made with my vintage labeler. It should match up with what I've already got going on over at the other shelves...


Just as pleased as punch it all came together how I'd hoped it would!

Now to think up what to do with all the other fun items I found at the show....


That's a job for another day!
Cheers!

As the Lilacs Fade...

Hello+Hello!
Oh what a month May has been! 
With 3 family Birthdays, Mother's Day & all the gardening & Spring type projects going on...my month has flown by! 

But, before I forget & whilst the last blooms on my lilac trees fade... I wanted to share some of the prettiest blooms I was able to capture with you here.


Oh how I love May & all the pretty flowers it brings...

Now it's time to move on to the roses & Foxgloves...but that's just fine with me. 




Soon the kids will be out of school & we will be seeking shade from the hot sun....

...but for now I will enjoy the lushness of Spring & stop to smell the flowers.

Cheers,
T.

Beach Bag Beauties


Hello + Hello!
How are you?? Are you gearing up for some Summer Fun? It's been gorgeous weather here the last few days & I'm dreaming of the beach! So what better thing to do than whip up some beach bags!!


Yep, you guessed it...vintage goodness whipped into shape with a little ingenuity & elbow grease! 

Some of these bath towel beach bags have pockets made from matching washcloths, but others don't. All have a happy bit of blanket stitching however, which is my favorite part to do!


The idea to do this just hit me one day... & the rest is history!


Each bag has it's own personality & I can't wait to figure out which ones to sell via my Instagram shop (link on homepage).


So, here's to a successful IG Sale & my crazy hair brained ideas!
Cheers,
T.

On the Bright Side of Sick


Hello + Hello!
How is your Spring going? Are you feeling inspired? I know I am! My garden hasn't looked this good in a few years!

However... On dreary days, I've been working on some new decor in my living room & dining room. Since I've been collecting purple toned items over the past year or so... I decided to give Radiant Orchid a try. 


Yesterday I woke up with a terrible stomach flu & today I'm feeling a bit better. Sadly I'm not 100% yet...so instead of working on projects...I decided to share a few photos here hoping to keep myself motivated to complete the projects at hand (once I'm back to normal of course). Thankfully it's only about a 48 hour flu; it seems like it's going around our whole county. I'm praying my hubby & kids don't end up with it.

So, for now my vases will remain unfilled, lacking the pretty lilacs I see outside my window. But I'm thankful for the beautiful view & tantalizing carrot of future possibilities dangling right in front of me. 

I believe it's quite possible that the good Lord allows us to be sick from time to time so we may appreciate a life spent working. I know I'd much rather be toiling away at something than sitting in a corner with a topsy-turvy feeling in my tummy! 

Stay healthy my friends!
