Salvation Junk Sisters Show Part 2

If you want to see part one..go here

Janae and I went to the Junk Sisters show once again today...just for a bit. We had fun again--and Janae got another pretty mirror and we got some candy lightbulbs. I have a whole bunch of pictures to share from the show.  So sit back with a cup of coffee, or glass of wine..and here we go, see what we saw!

Janae wanted this for her dogs!

Would love to have this on my front porch

Janae and I both wanted this chair!

I really love this chair--in white and blue, of course:)

Janae came very close to buying this King sized headboard, she would re-do it in white though

I thought these bags were adorable!

Check out my cute shoes I got at Goodwill- lol

Thought of Sissie when I saw this one!

I need to learn how to make these--so cute!

These lampshades are so simply sweet!

These little bags scream adorable!

Isn't that the truth?!

Janae and I love all that sparkles!

What a cute tablecloth this vendor made! So many talented people at these shows.

Whew! So many things to see. Did you see anything you like?

Thanks for sharing the Salvation Junk Sisters show with Janae and I- have a lovely Sunday!

Junk Sisters show--so much fun!

Janae and I went to the Junk Sisters show in Hillsboro, Oregon tonight and we had so much fun! We had been looking forward to it for so long and we had just as much fun as we thought we would have. When surrounded by all this stuff you just adore..it is hard to not get a bit excited. The admission gets us in for tomorrow too, so I think we will head back over there. Just in case there is anything new, or just in case we missed a treasure!

Here we are ready to go...

Then we were there...

Janae got this beautiful wall chandelier that you can't tell how awesome it is in the pictures--but I am sure she will post about it later when she has it in her house somewhere...

It has some pink and green to it, and is dripping with crystals...so beautiful!

 This little pup was so adorable..reminded me of my sweet Itsy Bitsy who is in puppy heaven now.

Then we saw this mirror and I knew...

The look on Janae's face in the above picture is her "I've got to have it Mom" look. Again, the picture doesn't do it justice..it is so pretty!

I thought this sign was so funny...and so appropriate for this economy!

I loved this little "old lady cart" (that's what I call them anyway--not sure what you are suppose to call them!) with it's darling liner. My Mom got me one of these and I am very inspired now to make it as cute as this one!

There was so much to see...

There is me in the mirror! Love that bag.

I took lots and lots of random pictures..and if we go again tomorrow I may take more..so stay tuned for more Junk Sisters show in Hillsboro!

 Thank goodness we were able to fit everything into the car!

Thanks for visiting--Have a great weekend!

Ruffled Window

Continuing in my theme for the year (year of the ruffle) I made a valance for the sunroom last night. This room is a walk thru room to my husbands fish room and the only reason I call it the sunroom is because it has a skylight. This is where I have my computer and all my crafting supplies. I decided it could use a more feminine touch.

Below is what the window looked like before

I think it looks so much prettier now!

For some reason the wall color is photographing funny today..it is not that yellowish color but looks more like the before picture. Not that I am going to do it anytime soon but I sure think that River Mist paint color would look beautiful in this room!

I think the valance really is flattering to my Ikea hanging light. They seem to kind of go together with the layers. I love that light, though it is a little more modern than I usually like.

Besides making the ruffled valance I made the lace inside curtain. It filters the light so beautifully. I have a bolt of that lace that I bought when Janae was a baby for her room. I guess I changed my mind or something because it never got used and I am happy to have it now! So this whole window project cost me 2.99--for a white sheet at Goodwill.

One more project done!  Now I am excited to make some pretty pillows for that trunk. The ones on their now are store bought---which is fine, but handmade is much more to my liking. Back to the sewing machine!

Thanks for visiting!

Yearning for Spring

I am so anxious for spring and all the flowers it brings! While Chantel and I were at Walmart tonight I made her go with me to check the barren garden center. She said "Mom, it is still freezing outside!" I know she is right..but there were some primroses and some pansies..not my favorite flowers but at least something was out there! This week we are suppose to have some decent weather. Hopefully I'll be able to spend some time cleaning up the yard and getting ready for these flowers I am longing for.

Until then I look back at pictures from last year and look forward to the coming season!

 

I have a little "proud Mom" thing to share too...Wyatt received student of the month for perseverance. Wyatt has a high IQ, but for reasons probably due to the premature birth of he and Gage, he struggles with getting things done quickly. So he has to put a lot more time into it than some of the other kids. But he works hard and that is why his teacher gave him this award. I'm so proud of him.

Thanks for visiting--have a great day!
