Easter Message

He is Risen!

I am Here!

Georgie wanted me to stop by and tell you that I am still here 

but this new career thing is killing me!

So much to learn and so little time for much else. 

I do love helping 

people find homes and it is fun to see all of these properties.

I am also having a face lift (blog lift) done by 

Valentine designs. So stay tuned for that!

Then there is Glitterfest......   

I have to get ready...... it is coming Fast!

 May 22nd

Here are a couple of Fleurs I have been 

working on for the show.

 I Hope all is well with each one of you and  I also hope

I will be back soon.

 I miss visiting and being visited by you!

My New Bed!!!!

Is this not spectacular?

I do so wish this was my new bed!

However I must tell you that this belongs to all of us who 

want to visit the Getty Museum in Los Angeles.

Wow what a wonderful day I had with these characters...........

  

I don't know about you but when I take the time out to do something like this I always wonder

why I don't do it more often. I love spending time with my family and 

it is really fun to do something like this together. 

If you live in the area you must try to go. And if you visit us here in Southern California 

make sure you stop in. 

The cost is 15 dollars per car! That is it!

Here are some other pictures I took for you that day. I so wish my camera had not 

been acting up............

The day was just gorgeous, 

cold for us here

in the Southland.

The Paintings were exquisite!

Oh Man the silver!

Thanks so much for stopping by. 

I wish I were here more 

often,

but I am so glad when I am here to read your lovely comments.

San Diego/Fallbrook Trip

 

When I went to San Diego last week for my test I stayed at a boutique hotel

Called the Bristol. 

I really loved the hotel it was right in the heart of downtown and only 

two blocks from the place where I took the test but 

even better, Two blocks in the other direction is Horton Plaza

and the Gas Lamp district. 

Since I was only there for one night and was a little preoccupied

I did not get to see too much, but it is a happening place. 

I will go back when I can enjoy it.

When I left San Diego I stopped by Oceanside and picked up my daughter Mandi

and we headed out to Fallbrook for an overnight stay with my 

Aunt Toni who lives in a beautiful home that she has

been decorating.........

hopefully we can take some pictures next time to share with you.

She has some really great stuff!

She took us to some really wonderful places like the Myrtle Creek Nursery which is 

located at 2940 Reche Rd in Fallbrook. Phone #760-728-5340.

Mandi and Toni are posing for me in front of one of the many 

cute areas they have displayed so perfectly. 

Here are some more pictures of what they have there including  some 

items from their adorable gift shop.

 

Here is a close up of this cute circus wagon.

 

In the gift shop I found these leaning up against a wall. 

What a great back round. Feel free to use  this picture if you would like to.

 

  

 

  

  

Can you believe  these are geraniums? I happen to love geraniums but did not

know they could look like this! I plan to go back and get some for pots on our front porch.

That is all for today. Hope you enjoy these pictures and that you will stop 

by Myrtle Creek if you are in the area!

OH HAPPY DAY!

It is over,

the test is taken, 

and I passed!

I can not tell you enough how happy I am that  it is over. 

I have been out of school for over 30 years and 

to be quite honest I was not the best 

student.

So thanks for all of your good wishes and prayers. 

My new life will begin and I will be working again. 

How will this affect my business?

My blog?

I don't quite know the answers to all of that. 

Making my flowers is very time consuming but I do love it. 

Time will tell. 

I will be back tomorrow with some pictures I took while in Fallbrook and Temecula. 

I had such a good time with my Daughter and my Aunt Toni. 

Come back and see me!

New Fleurs and A MESS!

I have added some new Fleurs to my shop and I wanted to share them with you. 

I got some new molds and was happily creating away 

until....

  I realized I MUST stop and study for my 

Real Estate test. It is less than two

weeks away and I have to Pass!

(say a prayer for me if you remember)

I also wanted to post this before I started 

to study because who knows when I will be back!

I love these new ruffle fleurs. 

They have inspired me to come up with some new ideas for Home Decor. 

This little jewelry chest will look so cute with these 

attached and finished with some cute centers.

 As an embellishment on baskets.

Or sewn on pillows?

  They are also really cute on headbands.

I have made a few to get ready for Glitterfest.

Anyway now I must put this all away 

which is hard When you are on a roll

and hit the books!

Oh yes and I promised you a mess............

   

The outside of the house which is my bedroom wall, 

is now gone and I am sleeping in the living room like the 

Buckett family In Willy Wonka.

On top of that this is what the inside of my bedroom looks like now....

If you look at my last post this picture

is taken from the exact same place

as the one of my bed and side table.

Can you believe it?

It is all going to be fixed in a week or two 

and then I will be getting down to 

business deciding on the finishes. 

I have been considering velvet. 

What do you think? 

There is a wonderful give away at Dreams Intertwined in honor of a 200th post aniversery. 

I entered and am crossing my fingers to win as it is an Anthropologie gift certificate! The more people who enter the bigger the dollar amount of the certificate. Cool.
I love, love that store. 

Stop in and meet Heidi She is from Chicago and I loved getting to know about her and her great Etsy shop. 

~Good luck to us all~

On another note those of you who stop by and visit know that we moved several months ago

and I have been redecorating the house and my bedroom. 

Well with all the rain my room which is the front 

of the house got some kind of a leak and one of my walls and carpet are going to be 

replaced. Major redesign is now going to happen!

I am kind of happy because the room was not exactly  the way I wanted it.........

So this is a good excuse change it.

I will post about it when it is done. 

So I will leave you with a before picture 

(that used to be an After)

Is that confusing?
