{May Has Arrived}

  I sure hope that your May has kicked off to a good start. The heat is settling in quick around our parts.  We've kicked off May with watching our softball girls win the District. Next week we start another round of ball. It's so much fun to watch these girls and especially our girl, Mallory. She plays centerfield.  We were so proud of both teams that played against each other. They all, hand in hand gathered together as one of our girls prayed for the game and also for one of our young men that was in a horrific car accident and fighting. His name is Kaden if you can think to lift him up to our Lord.  I had the opportunity recently to speak to a group of women at a ladies luncheon event at a local church. Oh we had so much fun. I wished I had gotten pictures of the beautiful decorations. We had a TEA PARTY and we each kept the cup that we drank out of it.  Isn't she just lovely? Easter has come and gone but we sure have a great time with family. We gather each...

Tuesday Toots-Mason Jars, Burlap and Tin Cans!

Well I am getting ready for a bridal shower and wedding for one of my sweet nieces. Working on things along and along. It is all coming together nicely. Rustic, Burlap, and Lace--- you just gotta love!
 Mason Jars and Tin cans....Who would have THUNK IT! Sharing just a few things that SO FAR I have marked off my list!


These are going to make two little flower girls happy, happy, happy!



Ooh, loving me some tin cans! A little paint and some embellishments and you are good to go! Will look so cute with flowers and candles, don't ya think?

 Have quite a few left to do but they will be so cute for the bridal shower.


 This will look so cute with a pillar candle in it and maybe some embellishments on the candle...such as pearls.....


 Got lots of these mason jars to spice up for the wedding. But I just love how the simple burlap gives the jars a rustic feel.

 



 Started on the Wrist Corsages...Loving how they are tuning out so far!



Bouquet's are really turning out pretty!


I love the burlap, brown, and rhinestone! Just really added an extra touch to me!



Well, lets just say my kitchen looks like a Florist Corner right now!!!! Wildflowers, wildflowers and more wildflowers!


Lots of Mason jars yet to do....ooh, I still have the garter to make, the ring bearer pillow to make..the toasting (Mason Jar) glasses to embellish...WHAT AM I DOING BLOGGING TODAY????
  See you tomorrow for Wednesday in the Word....

Till then..........Have some bubble gum.


 

Hugs and Blessings, Cindy

    My you are being a busy bee. LOVE it all. You can't go wrong with burlap or Mason Jars. I am sure your niece is thrilled to have you doing these things for her. And I must say, I do, I do, I do love the rhinestone on the flowers.

    I do love these, I love mason jars myself and am always picking up different sizes when I find them at the thrift store. Have fun.
    BTW thank you for all your wonderful suggestions for my greeting cards, you had some great ideas that I will be using (love the idea of gift tags)

    I've been collecting little glass jars so that I can do some similar flower vases for Easter Sunday. These look great x

Hiding the Ugly Hot Water Heater

 I shared that I wanted to hide my ugly hot water heater in my laundry room with you a few weeks ago. It just stuck out like a sore thumb. But after all it is a hot water heater right? So my man took a piece of wood (not real wood) but it worked and built a frame for me. So now to see if it would fit and it did. I painted it white and did not like the texture it had even after two coats of white. (rule of thumb...you get what you pay for and the wood was cheap) But I wasn't going to let it whip me!  Found some contact paper at Walmart in the gray and white. Covered the front with the contact paper and loved the look. The top was covered with a piece of painted wood as well and worked perfect to place this on top... And this.... Added a clothes basket in the corner and here was the top.... Yep, no longer an eye sore to me! Went perfect with my gray walls and gray and white floor. Remember the wood tray I bought at a...

{A Celebration of Forty Years of Marriage}

Marty and I just celebrated our 40th Wedding Anniversary on September 23rd. On one hand, it seems like it was FOREVER ago that we said "I do" and on the other hand, it really doesn't seem that long ago.   We began dating at the age of 16, married at age 18 and began our family at age 20. WOW! Babies, right? I always said that we grew up with our children.  My friend Janice told me that most people can't commit 40 days much less 40 years and that is so very true. God has been so merciful to us over the years and the grace that He has poured out on us is about more than my little brain can comprehend. We have been truly blessed and we have not deserved one ounce of His blessings!  We have had hard times, bad times, grief, and to be totally honest, there were times we both wondered if we would make it! God has shown us Grace and Mercy over and over again. He sure loves us so much.  The question was asked to me, "What has been y...
