Baby Nursery Decorations

January 9, 2011

Today was supposed to be my #3 daughter’s baby shower. The food was purchased by the hostesses and the day’s schedule had been worked out by all involved. However, our weather turned into winter, threatening icy roads and dangerous travel. Nurse M & M (#3 daughter) happened to live in the area that was hit [...]

Well, as most of you know, I am very sentimental and have the hardest time getting rid of any thing. So, I have a house full of stuff!

Making Christmas Wreaths

December 10, 2010

I am not sure that actually having a cute Christmas wreath is nearly as much fun as the memory I made making the wreath with my baby girl at her beautiful, festive, Christmas decorated home.

Easy Glittered Ornaments

November 3, 2010

I decided to do a craft today. I know it may seem early to you but I am decorating for Christmas next week. I used to decorate the week before Thanksgiving when the kids were in college so that they would have more time than just the week before Christmas to enjoy the decorations. It [...]

Fall Wreath and Other Crafts

October 8, 2010

I saw this wreath made with fabric rosettes on a blog (http://tatertotsandjello.blogspot.com/2010/09/guest-project-make-autumn-rosette.html) who hosted a guest blogger named Laura (from http://iamalongfortheride.blogspot.com/) who gave a tutorial on how to make a wreath like this. I sent the link to my daughter, Nurse M&M. She said, “I am so making that.” I should have known that a [...]

Winter on the Brazos

September 11, 2010

Well, I almost missed the color violet at Alphabet Thursday. I couldn’t think of anything….well, at least of interest. I just couldn’t let Alphabet Thursday Rainbow Summer School pass me by and then it came to me. This weekend is all about my painting, Winter on the Brazos….at least at my house. Why, you ask? [...]
