We Are Moving!

Yes ~ It's finally happening!

I am moving my minis into a real dollhouse!!

Of course touches of red will be everywhere ...

In the new six room house.

Can't wait to decorate that kitchen and the attic too!

It's The Willow by Corona from

miniatures.com

So while I plan big decorating changes in my own

life size cottage ...

I will be decorating my mini one too.

Check in to visit the updates at ...

Ash Tree Cottage Minis.

Happy 1st Rednesday of 2011!!

Under Cover

So far, this Tuesday is not going so well.

It's only 8 degrees outside ~ burr!

My mouse is acting up

and I unplugged my camera connection while in iPhoto

and messed up my photo library ~ so ...

If you don't hear from me for a while you will know

that I have moved into the MacLife shop!

For now I have a Table Top Tuesday Tea Cup that's

under cover. I feel like crawling back into bed under

the down filled comforter!

I am joining:

Bentley ~ let's snuggle up under the covers for a few more minutes!

Favorite DIY Project of 2010

I did not have much time for DIY projects last year ...

But this one was my favorite.

I found an old tattered and weathered collapsable chair

and table and with some scrubbing, paint and new canvas

they became these ...

A fun little table and chair that can fold up

and be carted to the beach or for a picnic!

I am planning some major changes at

Ash Tree Cottage this year ...

so stay in touch.

Until then, I am headed over to

DIY Show Off for some great ideas!

Bentley ~ do you want a new slipcover for your bed?

Mama's in the mood to redecorate!

Love,

Susan and Bentley

Happy Thoughts

I bought some new rose colored reading glasses

to look at the world in a rosy way!

That's my New Year's Resolution ~

to be happy and to spread joy.

Sending you all happy thoughts ~ and to you too

Bentley!

Love,

Susan and Bentley

2010 at Ash Tree Cottage

It's been busy around Ash Tree Cottage in 2010 ...

We went camping in the backyard ...

We showed off our reds ...

And our pinks!

We had fun with chickens ...

especially Thelma!

We pulled out our Vintage Thingies ...

And worked in the garden.

We went green to help the environment ...

so we hung the laundry out to dry.

And we had lots of fun with Bentley!

Most importantly ~ Bentley and I met some of the

sweetest people in the world ...

You!

Happy New Year

and thanks for

the memories!

Love and Best Wishes

for a

Happy and Healthy New Year!

Susan and Bentley
