I Can See Clearly Now...

glass vases... ideas galore
sleek simple beauty
chic and unique
elegant and understated
Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful; for beauty is God's handwriting - a wayside sacrament. Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every fair flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
The most beautiful view is the one I share with you. ~Author Unknown
Some people, no matter how old they get, never lose their beauty - they merely move it from their faces into their hearts. ~Martin Buxbaum

That which is striking and beautiful is not always good, but that which is good is always beautiful.  ~Ninon de L'Enclos
This is clearly...THE END

Dream a little dream....Etsy Pick!

Garden Jewels @ Etsy

suncatchers
I love to wish on stars
and gaze at the moon
so when I saw this seller's art pieces I
was thrilled to see the subjects she created.
I plan to buy a moon to hang in one of the branches of my tree
near my patio to
enjoy on summer
evenings especially
when the moon and
stars are a glow!

We Love Rust!! Who Loves Rust?

Rusty this, rusty that!
I'd love to see everyone's ideas for garden art making use of bits and pieces of who knows what... especially now that the nice weather is here and we'll be out hitting yard sales - tomorrow morning for moi - la de da.

Next Year's Nifty Idea For Halloween - Never to Late to Help a Child!

Check with your local churches, pre-schools and elementary schools next year - I just discovered that there are lots of children who's families have difficult financial situations and one of the rippling effects is that they cannot afford Halloween costumes. If you're at a yard sale or church rummage sale and see something cute and in good condition, think ahead, pick it up and set it aside for someone in need. It will make you feel soooo good. Please consider donating costumes and other decorative accessories useful for awesome outfits wherever the need may be in your neighborhood.

Creative is as Creative does - The Ardent Sparrow

The Ardent Sparrow can be found on Etsy and she has some unique jewelry pieces. I especially love her bracelets with the flowing accents and lovely stones - adjustable sizes are a plus too.
Great gifts!
