Dreams and Pearl-ish Delights

I won the september drawing of the luxury antiqued background set and a collage sheet of the painted ladies from June at DezinaWorld, and I have been having the most fun playing around with them.... they are the most fabulous things!! please be sure and check her site out,she has a drawing every month and all you have to do to enter is create a challenge piece from that month's challenge...and we all love challenges,dont we!!
and I have a few pics from around the house...
some of krissa's paperweights.....some lights in her bedroom

did I mention that she loves lights and lamps.....she has at least a dozen in her room....if we go thrifting she is always on the lookout for them and if she has to choose between a lamp and a toy, the lamp usually wins....and she dont turn just one on a time, nope,she wants them all on!! when she is home I am constantly checking her room and turning lights out....she's not afraid of the dark or anything....she just likes them.....she is collector of a lot of things and I'm trying to get her to pare back some of the things but she wont have any of it! LOL...oh well, she takes it naturally, I'm the same way on things I like....

Thanks for stopping by, and wishing you a great week ahead.

Monday,Monday

It's monday and officially the start of summer break from school. Our last day of school was friday and now its time for skinned knees, scraped toes, poison ivy and bug bites....and that's just since friday..lol......

I am just a summertime person.....spring is good and fall is ok....but give me summer anytime...

Snow and ice are good while we are playing in it....snowballs,snowmen,snowfights....love all that but why cant it just melt and be done with it after a couple of hours.....

Have spent the last 2 days changing my living room around again, and again....about 4 times in the last 2 weeks.....guess I'm in one of those moods when I just cant seem to get it right.....so decided to break away from it for awhile and show you some of the things in my home that I love no matter what......(especially when its attached to skinned knees!!!)......

A few of my sweet vases and urns......love these things

Cute little things by my back door, paid a quarter each for them last fall...you can judge the size by the lightswitch in the corner of the photo....

Did this about 12 (?) years ago, lol, somewhere around that time anyway

Love this, and only paid $1.00 for it.....wish I could always find sweet bargains like this....

Just a few of the salt and pepper shakers that I collect, with a few old spice tins thrown in. Hmmm,wonder why we can never seem to find the salt shaker when its time to eat....

hagn everyone, and enjoy all of summers little scrapes......
