happy may

 Happy May!

Hope that you are enjoying some lovely spring weather! It has been a little too warm for me here, summer temps, so I am  hoping it will cool down soon as I am not quite ready for the summer heat. 

It has been a busy week with working on some new pretties for the shoppe and doing a little spring cleaning and redecorating. 

 Since I do not have a garden, the vintage plastic roses are my May flowers. I just wish they had a better smell! ;)

I had this cute little shelf that I have been meaning to hang up, so yesterday I finally did in my kitchen.

 A couple weeks ago I finished my little "H" mini wall quilt using some of my favorite colors together.

I have been busy getting some sweet strawberry and cherry items finished, sorry for the fuzzy photo, my sewing room is not a great place for photos. ;)I am hoping to have them all in the shoppe by the end of next week. So, we'll see how fast my hands can work!

Thank you for your sweet words on my baby things and it was fun to read what you have! Wishing you a beautiful first day of May and have a lovely weekend!! xo

                                   

vintage trays, some finds, and a little redecorating

 Hello Dear Friends!
I hope that you are having a lovely week so far! Over the weekend I started a little early spring cleaning and redecorating. I was excited to finally get my little collection of vintage trays hung on the wall. I used paper clips and hot glue, and so far so good! I am on the hunt for some red and pink trays to add, which seem to be a little harder to find.

 I ventured to a few thrift stores which ended up being pretty bare of goodies, except one! I came home with another gardenia tray to add to the wall, a sweet milk glass cinnamon spice bottle, and a pretty floral plate.

 These cute Juvenile Jamboree transfers were a great ebay find! And, some of these cuties will be stitched up for the shoppe for some new items coming March.

 This is another little wall collection that is growing. I want to eventually add some vintage rose/floral needlepoints and floral paintings to it, but the prices at estate sales never seem to be in my budget, and I haven't been lucky at thrift stores, so the hunt continues!

 This cute little shelf has been waiting to be hung,and I am happy it is finally up and filled with some sweet treasures!

 

 Some crocheted pot holders I made awhile back, and framed vintage style floral postcards that I used for the save-the-dates for our wedding almost 4 years ago coming this April.

 My project list has been put on hold while I work on some orders and new items for the shoppe, but I did cut some squares for my next hexie flower, and will have to sneak in some time to make it. We are supposed to have a lot of rain the rest of the week, so it will be good to stay in and work away.

Wishing you all a most lovely and crafty week!
