capes for cold texas weather

it is finally blustery here today!
it is atleast 70!
time for hot chocolate and scarves and maybe even boots!
i am already researching capes
and maybe i will sew one up!
here is some inspiration from etsy

proud of me

I have given up most blog reading but wanting to gain inspiration for crafts so stumbled across this blog today and read this post
i spontaneously left this comment which i NEVER do
but the words flowed out
this is what i said
its a myth that we can do it all
give all to our kids
all the time
there is no such thing as super mom
we need to stop striving for this unattainable unrealistic expectation
for ourselves and all moms
after all if we had wanted to give all day all day long all day long
without a second thought
we would have become nuns not moms

i meant to write all day long 3 times to make my point!

wolverine

we loved you so much
and we will all miss you

dream cottage

this collage of pictures is my inspiration for decorating
traditional/vintage romantic/ french country
with a dash of holly hobbie

birdcage chandelier

my newest decorating endeavor
inspired by restoration hardware
i created my own unique light fixture
using a chandelier i already had
and a birdcage from garden ridge
and joe's handy work of course
i love it

inspirational words

we all need to read these inspirational words
maybe even more than once a day!
i just realized I have written 200 posts
