Terrific Totes....

2012-01-26T09:53:00.008-05:00

We all know about those Terrific Totes that TJ Maxx and Marshall's have at the check out for 99 cents. Well, a Girl can only have so many totes.....BUT, a Girl can always use , mold proof , water proof pillows for her Garden Seating ! Talk about seating...they can be made into the cutest stadium seats that have handles to make toting easy. I just love some of the Designs they have printed with ! I turned these cute Marshall's bags into stadium seats ! It was so easy and inexpensive. First I cut out the gusset, then turning the right side in , I stitched around the sides...turned right side out...stuffed with fiberfill and then stitched the top closed. How easy is that ! Thanks to Karen Ward for showing off my stadium seats...She is my new neighbor ! Seriously Fun Fitness opened last month. My Hero loves it ....He comes to work with at least 12 BODACIOUS women working out next door. Me ,well lets just say I have 2 LEFT feet and will not be trying to fit that in my schedule .... Hope you all rush out and get some totes , just remember to save some for me !

Fall Friday...

2011-10-07T09:53:00.002-04:00

Fall flowers from my sweet little shop home. Last year we moved from our 1895 circa home . We now abide over our Shop on the second story, about 200 yards away. At first it was hard adjusting as the shop building is also 100 years old and nothing is even or square, unlike the house which Hugh leveled and restored. A CHALLENGE for sure to level furniture and hang pictures. We are now replacing the backside windows and still have walls to fix and the kitchen area to finish. You will all hear me REJOICE when we finally get the stove installed in the pantry. I have been using a hot plate and a microwave....I so miss baking and hope to be able to cook a Turkey this Thanksgiving. I now love living upstairs...It is HOME SWEET HOME. I have a wonderful craft room to create in...a little hideaway. I do miss my yard, but we will be adding a two story front porch soon. Can we say Container Planting....I can be dangerous. Love doing them ! Tomorrow is our annual craft fair...Lilburn Daze...we expect several thousand people...So much fun ! Doing lots in the Shop, more pictures soon...promise !

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year ! Sharing our Old- New Loft. This has been a busy year... In January we decided to put our 115 year old home up for sale and move in over our shop. For years this area has been many different businesses. Originally it was Dr. Kelly,s Office. Built by him in 1910. This is the oldest commercial building in Lilburn. For the last 4 years it has been Hugh's office and storage. We have worked HARD to transform it into a welcoming Home.(Still working on the kitchen and bathroom combo laundry room areas.)We are delighted to share with you a little of our new world. Our house is still for sale. Anyone need a really wonderful historic home? Come be my neighbor....
