When I was a little girl, I would pick weeds, (I thought they were flowers), all clinched in my fist, I would give them to my mother, in a vase the little weeds would live, until.. It made me feel good inside. As an adult, I still pick weeds, by picking ugly or castoff item's and creating something nice and useful. It still makes me feel good inside.

Random Stuffes
Iam still working to get it all whipped back into shape. I have almost
got it done tho. Still weeding things out for the big garage sale..which will most likely be INSIDE the vacant house, its just soooo hot to do it outside!!
Just a couple of pictures of stuff, see that cow? Well, I have never seen an
anatomically (SP? I did spell check on that word, it wasn't there.) correct cow creamer...have you? Just kind weird.
The 2nd picture is a bunch of old wrist watches in a silver plate dish, most of these belonged to my granny. I sure miss that funny lady!!
Toodles, for now...Rhonda

My Old Door
I posted about my old door in another post, after I had worked on it a little, but, not finished. Here she is all finished! I added a few thingies to the hooks and hung and old vintage pediment to the top. I took an old vintage demi lune table and cut off the back legs, and attached it with screws. I also added the shelf to the middle, painted her all out, and ta da! Here she is!! I like her!!
BTW>>>Please ignore the green paint, I took this pic in my foyer of the OLD house that we just moved to..the renters...well...I need to paint..AGAIN!!!

Pictures of the "New/Old House"
Hi All....I was finally able to fix this dinosaurus rex, and now up and going again. I took some pictures of the house as I have been trying to get it all sorted out. Almost done, but, not quite. I have been sifting things out as I decorate. This house is older..but, much bigger, bigger is much better. The house we left was built by my deceased MIL and left to my husband. We moved in over 2 years ago and rented this one..oh gosh..what a mistake. NEVER rent your house!!!! Anyhow we are back here and feels almost like we never left!! Here are some pictures.....The brick you see is the former outside wall of the house..we added this room and a 3 bay garage several years ago. Hubs has decided to sell the MIL house, so we will be here for a long time..again. I will have more pictures as I continue to sift!! Rhonda

Caged Chicken
I posted about gaudy gertie once, Only 1 comment. I don't know...I saw one kinda like her sell on e-bay for over 100.00 dollars, and it had a lot less "jewels". I made her from the left over costume jewelry of my grandma's...from the stash I made the wreaths??? Remember?? BBAAUUUKKK!!
