Pink Poinsettia Tree


It's Saturday!!!!!

All I have is this one lone Pink Poinsettia Tree,
with lights, I made last year.
Very easy.
First I lightly sprayed tips of 2' artificail trees
Gold to match centers of poinsettias.
I strung lights around on inside.
Then I poked in poinsettia pics in from the bottom up.
I wired the pics in or you can use hot glue.

I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.
Many thanks to our sweet hostesses.

42 Years!!!!!

42 years today.
Happy anniversary to my sweet fella.
love letters in the sand

Our traditional 6 pieces of chocolate covered caramels.

A sweet card.


and flowers from my fella.

Not all a bed of roses, but
so glad we stuck it out through the rough times!!!

What I've learned:

Put the Lord first.
Trust Him.
Think of your spouses needs above your own.
The Lord will take care of you.

If you are struggling right now,
hang in there, it is worth it.

Beautiful Home



Is this not the too cutest??
Love it all. Baby dress, purse, linens, mirror.

These pictures are from my friend Sheri's house.
I drool every time I go over.
Little basket of goodies.


Not much white in this one, but
had to show you nest I made. =)
In the lantern, see it??

I might have made that little bottle, Not sure.
Sheri does a lot of shopping at my place.


Be sure to click to see close ups.
I know this is a white Wednesday post,
but love the green color of this shelf.
She has music pages leaned up in backs of shelves.
Think that is one of my flower nests on the top shelf.

I love this white vignette!
She such such a beautiful way of putting it all together.

Thanks for letting me show you Sheri's home,
and Happy White Wednesday.
