Polar White

As many are huddling down in the brutal Polar vortex, I hope and pray everyone stays safe and warm in their homes for the duration.

Repurpose

While visiting my friend a few years ago, one thing that stood out to me was how she uses her quilts around her home.

This vintage Singer stand at one time had a top.

By removing the top, she had rods made to fit across the frame. She now uses it to display a quilt.

A simple idea made into a lovely display area :-)

Winter at the beach

Winter in Florida can be cold.




 But the beach is still lovely.

Hostess Angel

Winter time can be so dark and bleak, but it is also a wonderful time to enjoy a piping hot cup of tea and share it with a friend.

So pull up a chair and let's enjoy a spot of tea together. My little Hostess Angel is waiting to serve you.





Thank you for joining me today

Evolution

Times change. Things change. When we first came to see this house, the fourth bedroom was set up like this...


After we moved in, we decided to make this bedroom a guest room. Changing it to situate the twin beds that once belonged to my boys.


Recently one of our boys wanted the beds for his own children, so we moved the twin beds out and set up the Queen bed that had been in one of the upstairs bedrooms. Long since vacant when said son married four years ago.

When we took the twin beds out, it opened the room up for a sitting area.

Through the nine years we have lived in this house, this room has continued to evolve.
