It's beginning to look like.........

Yep ~ You guessed it  ~ Christmas!!!
So here are a few peeks into various corners in my home.
I'm not quite done with the above photo as I think it's still missing something...hmmm...ideas???
Tinsel yes that's it..seems I can't get enough of tinsel town!

I couldn't resist getting these little cuties off of Etsy and altering them up a bit!
Too cute..how could any reindeer resist!

 

Looks like Santa is coming to town...he must be driving and picked up a Pixie along the way!

This santa looks rather large for that truck ..but you know Santa he is full of majic so maybe he did drive that truck over!

And below is my latest and greatest Christmas collage using a vintage suitcase pocket.

 

I wish the photo was bigger for you to see as the sheet music reads  "Deck the Halls"

So with that being stated I hope you have lots of fun decking all of your halls and walls for this Holiday season!!

Hugs ~ Tric

 

 

This just in...I'm sooo excited!!!  I'm being featured in Apronology!

 

Recently I've been into creating all sorts of vintage inspired aprons.  While making the aprons I envision a pretty little lady baking away in her 50's kitchen whipping up all sorts of savory sweets and tasty treats. And while wearing this magical apron everything she bakes comes out absolutely picture perfect and mighty tasty too!!!

So I like to call this ideal image that I have...Visions of sugar plums dancing in my head ..and everything is perfect!

If only my baking could be so beautiful!

 

 

 

 

A little bit of this...and yes a bit of that too!!

Well It's been awhile but once again I've been busy making a bit of this and that!!!
So spend a moment or two and take a tiny peek below to see what sort of goodies I've been up to!!!

 

Some handmade Vintage Art deco earrings all decked out for some evening fun!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And this little beauty below was such a fun creation for me....

 

 

And then this little cutie below

 who I embellished with extra tinsel

 and ton's of great glitter...

Well thats about it till next time!!!

I'm a bit ahead of myself..Halloween is yet to come!!!

 

RE:

A quick sneak peak at some recent cuties I placed in my Etsy Shop…these little guys were so much fun to make!!!

Isn't it crazy to think how summer has passed and how quickly the fall colors are tuning!

Hope you have a happy day!!!

Rescue Me Pretty

 

Rescue Me Pretty

 

When I originally found them this past weekend at a neighborhood sale,  they were hiding in a corner…

 just oh so ashamed of their ugly bright gold color.

So I said ( I always talk to my things, it's fun!!!)... don't you worryyou little cuties, I'll take you home and doll you up nice & pretty.

So a new coat of paint, some extra shine to the prisms and there you have it all ready to be sent off to a wonderful new home.

Now this pretty little pair of candle cuties are off to my ETSY shop.

I just love it when beauty comes easily!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

 

My Latest & Greatest Garage Sale Find

 

I will be the first to admit…I have a problem… I do. 

Mirrors and Frames, Mirrors and Frames

And more Mirrors and frames!!!

Hubby states..NO MORE Mirrors

No More Frames!!!!

But this past Friday we headed out to a few neighborhood sales and what was I most attracted too and oh so lucky to find?

Why of coarse ..mirrors and frames.

Love em, Love em Love em!!!

Needless to say for $3.00 there was no way you were going to talk me outta them!!

So I pulled out the money and paid before hubby could say boo about it!!!

The Heart Wants What The Heart Wants!!!

Sing A Sweet Little Birdie Song ...as Spring is In The Air


Spring is in the air, and these little cuties below are heading south for the spring.…
south down to Kansas city that is as Karla Nathan is hosting her Bird Song Two Event
and I so wish I could attend!!!
So considering I won't be able to make it... I've come up with a plan B
which meant participating in my own simple and small way
by making some goodies for her attendees to be placed into  favor bags.

I so hope she enjoys opening the special little Shabby Chic Sachets I've made for her and her guests!!!
I know I sure had fun making them!!!! It's always better to give then receive right!!!!
Hugs, Tricia

Swapping Sweetness

Lets get down to all the nitty gritty good details….staring with the box.  Wouldn’t you just be dying to tear this big bugger wide open?
Looks like Im having a bit of trouble with my focus as the photos below are a bit unclear. So unfair to Grace ..so I'll try to work on this for another post at another date and time. But anyways....
  Well I made myself wait a day or two so by now the anticipation was about killing me.
  I'm the type to snoop high and low throughout the house desperately sneaking out any sort of gift that may be for me and then pretending I didn’t find it and acting ever so excited once I finally open the item.
Big fat liar…yes I know!!!!
Okay so here it goes..my first on line swap ~ graciously hosted my by new sweet friend Mrs. Cheryl Figliola ( I love that last name…makes me think of sweet yummy Fig Newton cookies very time I see it!!! Yum Yum)

My BEAUTIFUL cone was so sweetly made by Grace of Pink In The City…and WOWZeeee would I love to come and live in her pink city as I'm sure it's to be as fabulousoo as her gift itself.   A very dreamy place indeed!!!
Thanks so much Grace I truly Love each and every last detail you’ve so graciously placed into my sweet surprise!!!

I think it's sooo fuuny how we both placed similar items into our cones...another great example of how great minds must think alike!!!
Happy Day of Love to all!!!

If Ever a question…LOVE IS The Answer!!!!!

A Teanie Weenie Sneak Peak

 Just a itsy bits of goodness I 'll be sending out shortly!!! 

All for the day LOVE as my hubby and I like to call it!!!

Whispers of Sweet Little Nothings
