I love hearing how excited you guys are for us to get started on this entire building process.  I get messages all the time asking WHEN things are going to happen.  Well, your guess is as good as ours.  The Woods and Ivy Cottage can be started any time soon!  ???????? ????????     As […]

I get asked all of the time about my handmade Antiques sign that looks like a real antique piece.  It was SO EASY.  I have never actually shown how to do it because I made it years ago, before I had this little space.  And, before I had my social media accounts.  It all started […]

Thank you QVC and ShopStyle for sponsoring this post.  All opinions are my own. If you’ve been around here for any time at all, you know I’m a plant killer.  I literally cannot keep a plant alive to save my own life.  I completely forget about them.  And then they dry up.  I then think […]

Deb and I sat down several weeks ago and admitted to ourselves that we will be living at this rental longer than we care to admit.  We both talked about what we wanted to do in order to enjoy our summer here.  The outside areas are our FAVORITE.  Because if you watch stories, you know […]
