Fraidy Kat....

3 comments:
I am going Glamping this up coming weekend, so I thought I would put together some fun decorative things since the theme of our camping trip is, "Halloween-Ho Down".
I am not into the ghoulish scary things of Halloween but I do enjoy the fun silly stuff.
Well I found this vibrant fabric and said to myself..."Self, this would make a great table topper"
So I bought it & some bright orange fabric, got home cut, cut, snip snip, stitch stitch and iron iron and Voila' look what I have...a table topper with a kitty attached to it! lolol!
Dolly girl made a beeline for it the moment I laid it down....she is no " Fraidy Kat"...

Seeing... is... Believing......
You just never know what you will see downtown Spokane.....
Yep. this is a "Boat-Car"... It seems the guy driving must be a real boat lover or is very confused as to whether he wants to be on land or water....
It was 4:30, and I was heading home after an afternoon of errands in town.
At first I thought...'did I really see what I saw?'.... Nope, no afternoon Martinis involved...I really did see this.
Only in Spokane......lol!

Dollies Dollies & More Dollies...

2 comments:
Gee, do you think I have enough Dollies?...oh wait, these are the ones I just got on auction....
I have lost count of how many gazillion dollies I now have....but between my vintage linens, hankies & aprons.....I either need a "12-Step Program" or another vintage suitcase to stash my latest finds in.
I washed and shaped this batch and now to figure out where to put them....
I love dollies and to think some mom, grandmom, aunt or even young girl, probably sat in a comfy chair, finally relaxing after a arduous day of house work, taking time to rest her mind and do a little crocheting or tatting.
I admire these gifted ladies who could and still do practice the art of crocheting & tatting.

Breakfast of Champions....

1 comment:
Some mornings you just have to have a "Breakfast of Champions"....and for me that would be a cup of creamy coffee & a fresh (I baked them the day before) Huckleberry Scone with peach preserves on it....
What a great way to start off an otherwise gloomy morning.
And of course it has to be served on a sweet vintage Dollie.
Good Morning world!
