These pictures won’t do it all justice.Andra from Silver Expressions was there with her beautiful jewelry. Annette from The Green Horse Co. had her awesome cement pumpkins and some great rusted jack o lanterns.This adorable one came home with me.Kashoan from Krafty Kash had her amazing necklaces, rings, and coasters there.

I can’t believe I won!!!

Posted on May 18, 2011 | 3 Comments

I was so blessed yesterday to wake up and check my analytic page to see quite a jump in traffic to this little site. Then with further investigation I found that most were directed here from Miss Mustard Seed. It took a few seconds as it was 4:15 in the morning (I’ll tell why in a moment) but the thought popped in- “I WON!” I quickly scrambled to her site to find out it was true. I won a package from Periwinkle Pass of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint! Oh how I’ve wanted to try this stuff. And now I can. Woo Hoo!

Here’s what can be done by a master aka Miss Mustard Seed.

Now why I was up at 4:15. For those of you who’ve had a colonoscomy, I don’t need to say any more. I was having that procedure as well as an endoscope being done yesterday. I was up to finish off my cocktail of horrid stuff to finish the prep. Of course feeling ever so sorry for myself. This being also the week of my son’s graduation and open house at OUR house this weekend. Couldn’t have been worse timing but that’s another story. So why on this blog am I sharing this personal story? Well, to say that I just felt God loving on me with the blessing of this discovery of my winnings and such a huge jump in my blog activity. (I’m a newbie with few followers yet)

So, if you’ve never been here WELCOME! and please, please take a look around. I wouldn’t be complete in my begging if I didn’t ask for you to become a follower as well. =]

I’ll leave you with a few of my favorite photos from .
