I am sooooo tired from my day in New York City
We walked, and walked and walked
It was a beautiful day, we couldn't have asked for
a better day!
I will be posting pictures later today


I did wear Ugg's for the walking, which were very comfortable, my feet didn't hurt at all,
the Ugg's were my daughters she let me wear them for the day
Thank you, Nicki

HAPPY THANKSGIVING




I hope your table is filled with wonderful food, family and friends
And, many blessings for the past year and the year ahead
May we all be blessed with good health, prosperity and the ability to help others
My blessings include those that are no longer with us, but how thankful I was to have had them in my life and to have known the love we had for each other
I always bless the animals, I never forget our faithful companions

White Wednesday


I wanted to share this, for those who haven't seen this
this is from Country Living
Seems easy enough to do and very reasonable
I'm going to try this myself



Written by Jennifer Rizzo


STEP 1: Wash and tumble dry a natural-colored canvas drop cloth--ours measured six by nine feet
 ($8.44; hardwareworld.com)--a few times to soften the fabric.



STEP 2: Lay the cloth flat. Run a strip of 1/4-inch grout tape down the middle of the fabric widthwise. Then run two additional pieces of tape on each side of the first, spacing them 1/4 inch apart (you'll have five strips total).



STEP 3: Squirt some red fabric paint ($1.89 for two ounces; createforless.com) onto a paper plate and dab a brush in it, off-loading any extra paint onto a paper towel. Working in short strokes, lightly brush the paint on the cloth between the taped areas to catch the grain of the canvas.



STEP 4: Continue to layer the pigment until it appears as dark as desired. Remove the tape once the paint has dried according to the package instructions.

Blessings~Cheryl
Happy White Wednesday

Holiday Decorating


Some Holiday inspiration~
Take a wicker basket, fill it with greens, pinecones, berries and twigs




These little baskets are adorable with candle lights inside



Head on out to the nearest field, woods or your backyard, as I do
Bring your cutters
Gather your greens and decorate you house with them
No fuss, no money to spend
Happy Sunday
Blessings~Cheryl
