New Shelf Life

Here is a cute little shelf. I like the lines of it, but it is a bit dark and decided to give it some new life ...

Some heirloom white paint and suddenly it's transformed into a cute little shelf to hold some sweet little treasures!

I hope that everyone is having a great Labor Day Weekend! My hubby and I will be enjoying a beautiful day in Idaho. When you have a chance, be sure to stop by and visit Susan's Metamorphosis Monday and don't forget to stop by and see Marty for her Table Top Tuesday party and remember to visit Linda at Coastal Charm for Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays!!.

Come on Bentley ~ let's go outside and enjoy this lovely weather!!

Love,

Susan and Bentley

Crazy for Collage!

Ever since Brenda from Cozy Little House gave us a tutorial about using Picnik, I have been having lots of fun making collages. If you have not tried it yet, go visit Brenda and read all about it. You will have lots of fun too!! Thanks Brenda ~ you are a doll!!!

Bentley, should Mama make a collage of some of your pics? We have lots to choose from.

Love,

Susan and Bentley

Favorite Things on My Windowsill

Little treasures on the windowsill above my desk that make me smile! Now go visit Laurie for her A Few of My Favorite Things Saturday to see what makes her smile.

I know what makes Bentley smile ~ tummy rubs!!

Barn Chick Friday!

Howdy all you barn chicks! Come onto my back porch. Grab a sunflower to put in your hair and an apple to snack on. Let's go visit my neighbor's chickens. Amy doesn't have a barn, but she has a coop.

We'll just go in through the back gate to visit the "girls". Don't worry, they won't peck you. They are sweet girls who love to have visitors.

There is Aretha and Beatrice and I can't remember the name of Aretha's twin. Notice the oars on the other side of the fence. The girls "Dad" Billy is an expert kayaker!

Here is Thelma. You all remember Thelma! She likes to hop the fence and come over to visit Bentley. Unfortunately, Bentley does not welcome her visits!!

Hi girls! Are you coming over to say hi??

Show us around your free range territory ...

You have lots of treats to snack on and you have ....

Your own drinking fountain too!!

These girls are so happy in their backyard!!

Bye girls! Thanks for a lovely visit!! Now the rest of you girls be sure to stop by and visit Barn Chick Karen at Brayton Homestead Interiors. Hopefully Hurricane Earl decides to leave her corner of Massachusetts alone. Please stop by and visit Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday too!

Hi Bentley. I just visited Thelma and I think she would love to visit with you again. Do you think that you could welcome her and not chase her??? Bentley??? He is ignoring me.

Love,

Susan and Bentley
