Sharing Bday Treasures

49 is another good birthday year....

I am blessed with thoughtful family and friends...

I tried to capture some of the gifts I received...THIS MAC compliments of my husband's supportive nature....

A lovely hanger from my daughter that I've admired many times at Pier One (and she chose it on her own)

I got dollars from Ma n Pa - yes, they still do that for a 49 year old - and I spent some on a book in Sante Fe that I thought was PERFECT for my art - Pictoral Webster's....and magazines - this one features one of my fave artists that I follow...and probably you do too...Diane Salter - so thrilled she was published in this edition...


And Just Look at this beautiful piece handmade by my pal....

So perfectly detailed and personalized... she had a whole theme in store for my yummy bday lunch with her.....

GARDENS...which we both share a love for....

I don't want to give too much away, for she will soon be opening her very own etsy shop...





and sharing her one of a kind pieces.....

I keep encouraging her to start a blog and share her talents....

But regardless, I love my bday treasures, my family, friends and think 49 is going to continue to be a GOOD year!

Who doesn't like a bargain?

I've been delving into alot of "flea market finds" blogs lately and wanted to share a project we completed awhile back.  We didn't pick up this table at a flea market...or a garage sale...nope, nope.  We rescued it from the curb!  Can you believe it?  A perfectly fine 1970ish coffee table that no longer fit the bill in this particular home.  We surreptitiously stashed the table in the back of the car and came home (only a few doors down) with our latest bargain treasure.  I knew right away I wanted to recycle it into a little buffet table...or sofa table...and I absolutely knew just the right shade of turquoise.  Some new legs did the trick along with that spectacular paint. some sweet little birdie votives and voila!  Magnifique?
