...A Rainy Day In The Back Yard.

It was raining a few days ago......

It actually hailed, poured buckets...but still ...

I love the freshness of summer rain..........

This sweet picture (shown here in my bathroom!)is going to Koralees home as soon as I find it in the unpacking!..

(she couldn't decide and then contacted me later!..I love that!)

We had a great sale and had a good time doing it!

The girls at IVORY VINTAGE MARKET are organized & sweet!

Our eldest was able to spend the day with us...very special!

Met so many nice people and many new customers!

The funnest part of the day tho was when people said

"oh I read your blog"

... can you believe it!!

Thanks to all our friends that came & the well wishers that couldn't

.... we love your support!

This has gone....

TABLE TOP TUESDAY!...

I thought I would give you a break from all my whining......about the sewing etc...

...Well it is TABLE TOP TUESDAY.....

These are Hydrangea from our garden...we have had a great year for these flowers!

And a Ginger Jar to add to my 30+ year collection...We saw it one Sunday while we were junking and it was $6..(it has a wee chip on the rim)...Bob said "do you really need it"...DUH!..I don't need anything...didn't buy it...

The following Sunday he went alone & the guy gave it to him free cuz he bought a $15 something or other...yeah...Free & its wonderful..not old ..but I am so thats all that matters!

Does anyone else collect blue & white.......

VINTAGE HOME....

So Much Sewing To Do !

So much SEWING to do ...cushions to be made!

Glad some of the painting is done!

But there is...SO MUCH TO PACK!

Much of it very BREAKABLE!

OR...I COULD JUST SIT DOWN AND HAVE A LATTE!

(Pretty sure the biscotte was made by my friend Carol...

no Carol I don't still have it...we took this picture that day!)

...but then the packing won't get done in time!

And that would get me in the dog house!

Regardless .....I am very excited about the sale..

with the ladies @

Ivory Vintage Market

see you there!

Saturday August 21st!

TABLE TOP TUESDAY!

WELL....KIND OF!

When our youngest was helping me set up the tables outside

she said ..."this isn't TABLE TOP TUESDAY, there's nothing on top!"

NO....But it is the TOPS OF TABLES!

I also threw in a few BOTTOMS too!

Great Legs...wouldn't you agree!

And aren't they sooooo pretty!

The colours are dreamy calm!

The white is BM CLoud White

The "square" table is a mix

BM Waterfall with BM Icing On The Cake

The other Icing On The Cake!

Bob has been busy finding & painting

These are some of the results that will be going to new homes!

Side Tables are just the best for a drink a book & a few flowers!

What do you put on your side tables?

Next Tuesday I am featuring coffee/cocktail tables...

We have some with curvy tops & great legs!

Have a great Tuesday!

HAPPY B.C. DAY!
