Still waiting on Spring!

Even though the calendar says spring... The weatherman is predicting yet another WINTER SNOW STORM! So while I anxiously await the arrival of the real Spring, I thought I would entertain myself with some pictures from last years Spring.

After winter it is always so cheerful to bring in the Spring! Combining the freshness of Flowers with "old" and Rust is one of my favorite ways to freshen things up.

Spring, a time of New Beginnings, an easy little project, a small birds nest made from chicken wire and moss, with a few little clay eggs.

Fresh Ivy from the yard adds a little green touch to the fresh daffodils. One of best things about my Spring display is that it didn't cost me a dime, I had everything I needed, just needed to shop around the house!

I made the "He is Risen" Wreath from a small grapevine wreath, some moss and twigs from the yard, what better way to say All things are new again!

Thank you for visiting with me today, hopefully you have been inspired in some small way...

Please leave a comment so I know you were here, they really do make my day!

God's Blessing to you and your families, have a wonderful day!

First Glimpse of Fall - Window Table Runner

I was messing around with my Old Window the other day, using it as a back drop for some pictures, on a table in my yard, when I was done taking pictures I laid the window on the table and an idea was born!

I could use this for a Table Runner...

So that got me motivated to gather all things Fall. I have always wanted one of these Wheat Bunches that stand up, I just think they are so Majestic the way they stand up so straight and tall. A few weeks ago I walked into the GW and I spotted it, clear across the store, I tried not to look to excited or make a mad dash for it, I breathed a sigh of relief as I proudly placed it in my Buggie, another item crossed off my wish list, and can you believe it was only $1.99~ it's so me...

I also found the vine Pumpkins at the GW, 2 for .99, and they had 3 Packages, (Brand new!)
The Indian Corn I found at a yard sale, the other Pumpkins I had from last year (Dollar Store, Painted)

I had to throw up my folding screen, cause the ~~weeds~~ Flowers in the Background clashed with my Fall Table. It worked pretty good, except I couldn't get a really good shot of the whole table...
