White Wednesday Treasures

New "simply nature" nest.
No fluff, just nature at it's best,
hand made by yours truly. =)

Lovely vintage lace and trims.

Lots of it!!!

A sweet pot of lavender.....

with a little nest tucked in at the base of it.

And my new sweet statues (yes I said statues, plural).

Isn't she beautiful?

And how about an angel to watch over us.

so peaceful.

And last but not least.

Tiny little white Easter baskets made by my Mom.
Hand crocheted, and only 3" wide.
That little basket part is about 1" wide.
Jut the right size for one little chocolate egg,
or a diamond ring. =)

Thanks for coming by.
Blessings and Happy White Wednesday.

Blog Question: Saving My Blog

Hello blog friends.

Two questions:

1. How do I save my blog? To Disc?

2. How do I save my blog banner & background?
(I'm having a new one made, but want to
make sure I can get old one back in case.)

Thanks all!!

(the bunny has nothing to do with anything, just
some cuteness for you to look at.) =)

Trowels and New Treasures

Trowels.
Ever notice how many different kinds there are?
Metal ones with wood handles.
(see that very very old on on the top right?)
cooool!!

All metal trowels in bright colors.

And look at this old trowel.
Hand crafted I think. And big and heavy.
Must have been one big, strong man (or woman) who used this.
``````````````````````````````
And here is my new treasure.
An old, but small wringer for a washer.

I finally found a bucket for it.
Not quite small enough, but it will do.
You know I am lovin' this.

Thanks for coming by.
Happy Tuesday blessings

PS Be sure to come back Wednesday.
I have such a beautiful treasure to show you!!

New little cabinet, new little project, & shoe polish tip!!

Little 14 drawer chest.
Yep. You heard me right.
14 drawers. Each drawer only 1x3"

I finished 3 more Ps 139 jars.

Sold before I could even get the pics on here.
Working on more.
(would love to see yours if you make one). =)

Here is a new project.
Fun and easy.

A few hymn book pages.
Paint or stencil a cross on the front.
(Or if you had a thin wood one would work.)

Add a little piece of jewelry,
and, an Easter reminder of what the day is really about.
(edges will be shaded too.)

And speaking of shading.
Another blogger had this great idea for shading things.
Use shoe polish and a sponge.

Vicki, or Rusty Rooster Vintage
Was the shoe polish tip giver.
I should have known it was one of my regular blogs I visit.
Thanks Vicki.
(please go see her adorable blog if you have not been.
She is also having a give away!!!!

Blessings all, and Happy Monday

Lovely Music Papers

I bought 9 of these wonderful music pamphlets.

Will show you some today, and some tomorrow.

Observation: My camera usually takes wonderful pictures.
I noticed on these though, it did not pic up the warm
browns and creams that beautiful aged paper has.
Wondering why????

Hoping they will look better when I post them,
than they do in this edit file.

Hope you enjoy anyway.
