HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAKAYLA !!!

Today my Makayla is 14 years old! I can't believe it! It seem like she was just born. Both of my kids are growing up fast. I am so glad I have a good relationship with her and she can talk to me. She tells me sometimes I am her best friend. I hope it will always stay that way. So Happy Birthday my sweet Makayla!! Love you!! Hugs

They are growing up!

Well hubby said I had to get some pictures of these little darlings. They just stole my heart, these have to be some of the cutest kitties we have ever had. The two dark ones are both girls and the gray one is a boy. Blake named the gray one Gizmo and Makayla named hers Sadie. I have not thought of a neat name for mine yet. So leave me a comment with a cool girl name for my kitty and I will pick from you ideas. So come on creative sisters give me some ideas for my cute little fur baby. Hugs

Blog Party Where Country Women Create!

Well it is party time and here is my post for Where Country Women Create. I do live in the country in a old farm house, over 100 year old. We have remodeled and built on to it several times. My space had never had any kind of theme or real organization about it. I just had a place to work and after mass creating it would turn into a mess. Most of the time I could not find things I needed. I do many different kinds of art so I needed several places to do different things. I have made many attempts at getting a space that was organized and made me feel good working in it. I tried many different plastic storage containers, just didn't do it for me. No offense to those of you who use them. They just were not what I wanted. I wanted a place that was primitive, shabby and vintage in decor. I needed a space that made me happy. My niece came over and said "you need to display your work in here" this is my space. The only thing is I don't keep a lot of my work. I did display a few dolls I have and thought I should display some of my beading. I wear my necklaces all the time but I thought I would display some of them, I have to many to put them all up. I am thinking about a small tree that I could put up more of my jewelry. This is still in thought process. I am not completely finished but, close. I painted the floor, desk(not finished), cabinets and the tables. I still want to make some rosettes for my table. I am also finishing some art for the walls. I hope to finish some more and post more pictures this week. I would love to know what you think of my space. Enjoy Hugs for now

Behind this door is where my art comes to life!!
