Fresh-Cut Friday

Thank you for stopping by and visiting. 

Now that your here, I hope you will join in for Fresh-Cut Friday! 

Feel free to link any post floral related. That includes arrangements, 

gardens, crafts, older posts and even silk arrangements.

All I ask is that you please provide a link back to this party in your post. 

The point is that I LOVE flowers! 

So lets enjoy them!

First off! 

Look at this incredible arrangement that my husband sent for our anniversary. 

40 of the longest stemmed, red, roses I have ever seen in my life!

The whole arrangement was about 4 feet tall.

I felt sorry for the poor guy that delivered them. They weighed a ton!

I got to enjoy them all week at work. 

FABULOUS! 

Thank you T!

So now let's get on with party!

My little arrangement is much more humble.

These little pom poms were so cute and fragrant.

Only $5.99 for the bouquet.

How can you resist?!

So that is my little fall arrangement! 

Let's see what-cha got!

I'm Joining:
Sherry from The Charm of Home;  Cindy from My Romantic Home;  Courtney for Feather Your Nest;  Debra at Common Ground; Kathy from A Delightsome Lif;
Wendy for Frugel Friday; Kate for Flaunt it Friday

What I Love....

I love .... 

That we are FINALLY getting some of that beautiful weather!

Being in my backyard!

A  hot cup of coffee from my Kurig Coffee Maker!

I also REALLY love that feeling you get when a project starts to roll to an end and 

you can just tell... It's going to be good!

 That's where I'm at with the big Granny Square Afghan that I am making for Sweet Daughter.

 I can't wait to show you the finished project... actually, I can't wait for the finished project to be done!

More later....

 I also love Flowers! 

I hope you will be able to join in this Friday.

Let's Play Miscellaneous Catch-up!

Hey Everyone, 

Do you ever have one of those posts that you just have some stuff to say... 

It isn't important...

Just things that you are behind on mentioning. 

Well this is that post!

 Several weeks ago I got to go to a sweet friend's birthday party. 

Now, she is one of the most creative people I have ever met! 

No seriously!

So I wanted to make her something fun, smart and different. 

Just like her! 

This is what I came up with.

 Needless to say, being the kind person she is,  the next time I saw her, she had it

on. And it really looked great darling on her. 

 We were chatting and she said that I should make a few and put them on Etsy. 

Then my daughter said " I told you mom! Those are really cute!" 

And of course my husband who is always encourageing me said 

"they are right! Just try it!" 

 So! I did!

 

 I also have some of these on there. 

I think they would be darling on Christmas packages.

There are also some things that you can custom order as well.

Let me know what you think, please.

And finally...

Here are the Colors of the Week. 

I got a little behind.

SO!

That's that!

Have a great week! 

It's Fall.... Can You Tell?

 You wouldn't know by our weather report! 

100 degrees today. UGH! 

I just keep telling my self that this weather is on it's way out... 

 Last week I got busy putting my fall decor out. 

 It might not be cool outside yet, but we inside,  are celebrating the change of seasons.

 I'm giving you a quick little tour of the Family Room and the Living Room.

  

These little artificial pumpkins and goards were only .67 each at Wal Mart. 

They really filled in my big glass cookie jar.

 Don't these cute little guys look like they got caught stealing 

my corn and acorns?

So that is fall around my house! 

Is your fall decor out?

Lil' Boo Bear!

Warning! I'm tickeled with this little project! 

I seriously can't believe I actually designed something.... 

Okay... "Design" is a loose term.

I had the privilege of being invited to baby shower for a sweet little baby boy last Saturday. 

I wanted to make a sweet, very soft, but tough and squishy little bear that could survive 

a little boy.

I think I met my goal. 

I could not find a pattern that I liked but that was simple enough for even me. 

So I looked at everything I could find and came up with this lil guy. 

I hope I recorded all of my steps accurately... I really want to make a Lil' Pink Bear.

One of the other things that the hostess did, that I think was so smart, was that we were to bring 

a book instead of a card! Isn't that cute?

Well, I thought to so. 

I sent my hubs out to pick the perfect book for a little boy and this is what he came

home with. 

Perfect!

 

Well, that is it for now.
We are getting all of the Fall decor out and preparing to celebrate

our family September Birthdays.

How do you feel about:

Loaded Potato Soup

Wilted Spinach Salad

Meatloaf

Fresh Green Beans

and for dessert? 

Salted Caramel Brownies
(oh my)

As a side note: I would be thrilled if you took a look at my little etsy shop!
There are some great gift ideas and also some custom order items.
