DETOUR ON THE WAY TO --


IT seems I had a detour today--after I came back from Mary's place--my plan had "originally" been to sew!!!!
But in the mean time, our housekeeper stopped by and I had her lift down the empty white tree box and the snowmen tote box--I had planned to put away the blue tree today--ONLY--but my plan got out of control???????



I had just finished putting the blue tree away and I noticed a couple Christmas things I forgotten to put away that was on top of my Hoosier so got the stool out and got up there to get them down and as I had planned on changing the items I had up there, I took everything down and guess who shows up about this time--Yep--little sister--I said to her--I have wondered how my blue ware would look up here--well--to make a long story short--we did it--and therefore I also packed away all the snowmen/winter things too--so here is the top now--

I think it came out really nice--now I have to redecorate the "rest" of the Hoosier!!!!
After we had some lunch--she left--did I go to the sewing room---NO---I ended up in the rocking chair and had planned to do some hand quilting--but I kept seeing baskets, bears, and plants and I had the bears and baskets on the dinning room table and I was needing the table for the Valentine sew-in--SOOOO-me got up and I decided to clean the front window area of the living room---

Where oh Where does "she" want me to put these???????



Hung this back up--had taken it down for the Christmas tree--

 

The above picture shows what this area looked like this morning--before the "c" word!!!!


Then I sat up my antique ironing board to hold some of my plants--and I used my bears and baskets to put with the plants--and yes there is a string of clear lights wound in the plants--it's a nice "sparkle" there!!!










So now I have taken care of a big "problem" what to do with my bears and the baskets--and hopefully the plants will love all their new friends and the sunshine!!!!

And now you can see the top of the dinning room table and it is mostly bare---YES!!!!!

So now it is a good thing that I am in the Valentine sew in--I need some things to add to my decor and for the table!!!!!



Hugs, Di & co.

yay, I can comment again. Wonderful hubby fixed it for me.
I LOVE your blues on top of the cupboard, and the gorgeous plant and teddy stand :) I'm sure they will all be happy together.
As for lightbulbs... it is already against the law to have any bulbs but those ones. Interesting, isn't it.....Big Brother and all that... I didn't know they were dangerous though. Someone said we would get fined if we used any of the old ones.
Thanks for the tips on kitty feeding :) You are very experienced! Thank goodness I only have one - 8 would drive me nuts!!
lv,
Joy
