The desire to accomplish is sweet to the soul...

The farmhouse has been a BUSY gathering place... a busy that brings a WELCOMING warmth for me, one that soothes the soul, one that can mend the broken counterparts! It's been filled with the ringing of laughter, the smiles of genuine folks & my closest family! |
The farm table was adored with...
SIMPLICITY & charm; faux greenery
as a filler for crock & FRESH greens
tucked providing a whimsical look!
And an ole' VINTAGE, pillar candle...
one of two, I found in my shop/business stash!
THIS pair of candles have literally been
with me for... at least 10 years!
I know... can YOU believe that???
They're ONLY lite during guest hours... &
then safely tucked away for the next gathering
OR need... they have actually been rented out before,
NOW that's a hoot, even to myself!
That goes to show you...
it's NOT in the expense of things...
it's ALL in the taste/style!

Oh... & you see the superb, chenille bedspread, don't YOU??? It too, was an inexpensive find... TRULY to my up-most surprise... to believe someone could actually part with a FINE, vintage piece, is BEYOND me & for ONLY $5.00, yep... you heard that right, a $5.00 bill! SO... as I've began to tidy & FRESHEN each of the rooms, I'm being drawn back to THIS chenille piece... trying to decide, do I keep it OR does it come up for offer over at Beehind Thyme MarketPlace...hummmm, the decisions a lady has to make! |

| As Christmas decor is being put to rest... there are some things that JUST have to remain... living treasures, which give life to one's soul... as THIS Christmas cactus does, for it carries my PRECIOUS 'Momma's' memories! SO... for now, it will stay planted in the sunniest location here in my kitchen, until the heart says... it's time to return to the greenhouse & wait for yet another Christmas season! |
 |
| And for NOW... the twinkling of lights stay put, for the BRIGHTNESS... it brings throughout these January days, lifts the spirit of things! Here's to a NEW year filled with... hopes & dreams, accompanied with daily devotions & prayers! ~ With SINCERE thoughts... |
