Light and Lace


The light poured into the nook as the sun yawned into dusk. The fresh fruit, lace, and touch of blue from the bowl captured my eye. Such simple beauty. There are so many beautiful pictures that go unnoticed in a day. Light and shadows, colors, movements... I am striving to stop and smell the roses. I once read a quote from Audrey Hepburn where she likened life to rushing through a museum without really taking the time to savor each work of art. That is what our days are filled with. Blessings, beauty, moments, pictures.

Happy Spots


It is amazing to me that I would be so blessed by God to have "Happy Spots" in my day to day life. What I mean by this, is those special places you enjoy quiet and thoughtful moments... places to linger, relax, pray, and just breathe. One of my favorites is in my front yard which is pictured above. I have two rocking chairs in the middle of a flower garden...what is not too love about sitting there?

Do you have a happy spot where you like to linger?

Oilcloth my love....


Take a peek at some of the oilcloth! These pictures were taken using the phone.

Today I came across a beautiful site. Oilcloth. and more oilcloth. I can't explain it, but I have a passionate love for this slick material. I went down to City Craft today, I can't believe it was my first visit. I've known for a long time that I would be thrilled to see all the fabrics, however I was stunned to see all the oilcloth. I wanted to take it all home.
