I did a painting today...

A farmhouse of course!

More inventory to take to the shop and...

this cute table with a bottom shelf. Can't decide if I should paint it. I think I will. ☺

This is my guest room/craft room/office/art studio/ESCAPE!

Summer's almost gone...

FREDERICKSBURG,TX is so FARMHOUSE PORCH.

My mom and I went on a weekend get away 2 years ago and it was one of the best weekends of my life. No hurry, no set plans...just two best friends window shopping, eating pie, stolling the main street and old cemetary and enjoying the atmosphere of the most darling little German town in the south.

And speaking of darling, our cottage B&B was called the "Lavender Cottage". It truly was a little old famhouse. I miss it. Here it is...

Todays' little treats...

Why not keep your q-tips in something cute? I have a huge glass hurricane jar I'm going to fill with white soap bars from the dollar store and keep it next to this cute little milkglass bowl. With all white towles...LOVE WHITE! So clean looking...maybe I need something full of white cotton balls too. They say to group things in odd numbers.

So I did it...for cheap! Here is the hurricane glass(came free with ULTA cosmetics) filled with $5 of soap..

New stuff for my FARMHOUSE PORCH booth in Old Town Spring...

I think these little glass gerkin trays are so versitile! I want to keep every one of them I buy because every "what-not drawer" in the house needs one. Perfect for jewelry, coins, paper clips, safety pins. business cards, school supplies, hair pins...and did I mention jewelry? : )

White platters...who can get enough??? Grouped together you can fill up any farmhouse wall and it always looks striking. The metal shaker...I'm thinking powdered sugar duster or baby powder dispenser!
