Getting Rid of Trash to Find My Treasures!

I’m still running a couple days behind on the 31 Days 2 Get Organized with Peter Walsh.  I did tackle the magazines we were supposed to do on Day 10 – I’m only two days behind…give a girl a break!  This is what my magazine holder looked like in my Powder Room downstairs! I threw away…

Airing my “dirty laundry”

This morning on my Facebook feed was a post by Peter Walsh on the 31 Day Get Organized Challenge.  I don’t know about you, but it seems like in January that you just want to get organized. Maybe it’s because of the all the chaos of Christmas, having all the decorations up, the tree, the presents, the opening…

Dumpster Dive

My son Jason dug this out of the dumpster where he works and brought it home for me.  I was so excited, not just for the chair but that my son knows me so well and he’d knew I’d love this! It’s a vintage wood office chair, the tag underneath says from Pittsburgh! After using my…

Christmas Blessings Star Primitive Tree Topper

My Christmas tree needed a new topper and I found one the other day at Goodwill for $1.99. It had a spring bottom that I really liked and thought it would look good on my  top of my tree.  My only problem was it wouldn’t stay on the tree.  The spring bottom was kind of…

Caramel Heavenlies

It’s the Saturday before Christmas and I’m just now doing some of my cookie baking!  I almost didn’t bake any cookies, just because I know I’ll eat them if they are in the house and I don’t want to put on any more weight!! Can anyone relate with me?  However, Christmas only comes once a…

Love me some Penny Rugs!

I was so excited today to receive a Penny Rug table runner that I ordered from Homespice.  I’ve priced these in primitive stores and they are very expensive, so was happy to find an online store that carried them. I love Penny Rugs and even made a candle mat ONCE!  It takes a lot of…

Provitica “Nut” Roll

Not too long ago, I saw an ad in our Sunday paper for Provitica Roll. It was mail order and cost per loaf was about $21.95 plus shipping.  I would never pay that much for one, but I loved the way it looked, especially the Poppy Seed one.  I love Poppy Seed rolls better than…

Are You Ready for Thanksgiving?

I don’t know about you, but I have been on Pinterest the last few days looking up recipes and ideas for Thanksgiving.  I like to try new things, but unfortunately, my hubby likes the traditional dishes I make every year. You know what I’m talking about, the turkey, the stuffing, sweet potatoes, cole slaw, cranberry…

Sweater Mittens

In our community, the first Saturday in November, is the annual Farkleberry Craft Show!  I enjoy going to it, so many creative people out there.  A lot of jewelry vendors, I’m not really into it, but a lot of people seem to be.  One particular vendor really inspired me though and it was being run…
