The worst picture ever!!  Too many reflections!!!!

I LOVE the aqua bird nest and planter! IAM LINKING WITH COASTAL CHARM'S NIFTY THRIFTY TUESDAYS------> OVER THERE!!

Remember this stuff??

Remember this stuff I showed you a couple of weeks ago?
Well this is what I did with it:  The 47.00 antique table is in my kitchen, with the Heaven sign hanging on the wall above it.

This is what I did with the flax bag:  I bought a body pillow from Old Time Pottery, and put it on my ugly love seat.  The other blue target burlap I made into a pillow and closed the end with 6 strips of lace, (can't see in pic).

The large lantern that I paid way too much for:  Almost filled up with baby shoes I have been collecting...These include my babies shoes.

Oh, and remember how I have been dying for a French bottle drying rack??  Well, look at the pics and you will see it it all of its lusciousness!!  It not antique, but, fine with me.  I know other folks have been wanting one and I don't have a problem telling you where I got mine:  http://www.thebeautifullife.com/  it was $85.00 including shipping, and you have to assemble it.

The silver plate pitcher is filled with dried hydrangea's from my yard, I forgot the picture. In one of the pic's up there is a antique tray that I covered the bottom with some of the Graphics Fairy's stuff.

Reckon that's all for now got more stuff to show soon!!  Toodles!  Rhonda

FINALLY BITING THE BULLET

Well after months of pineing away for these little suckers, I finally just went ahead and did it..these little tiny 2.00 each pottery numbered balls from Pier 1.  I caved..

I have been wanting to make some of these little music scrolls too,  I found 2 old music books at the last Estate Sale, and WaLah!! 

I also finally found a couple of wall baskeds at Old Time Pottery.

And got Spousearoid to hand my Mirrors....finally!

What have you ladies been up too??

White Wednesday

http://fadedcharmcottage.blogspot.com/2010/07/white-wednesday-56.htmlI don't think I have shared this lampshade I made from either Romantic Country, or Romantic Homes Magazine.  They took the actual shade fabric off of theirs, but, I chose not to..It is embellished with lots of blue and white toole wrapped around the shade and tied, satin ribbon wrapped and tied, vintage lace, also wrapped and tied, small blue roses tied on with more vintage lace, a couple of flower brooches just pinned on and a butterfly clip.  It was designed to slip photos in between the lace and toole. 

What it looks like on and off.

I will be trying to link to White Wednesday!! 

I'am Such a Copy Cat

My Name is Rhonda...and I'am a Copy Cat Aholic.  I just can not stop copying other bloggers great ideas.  {Please forgive me, as, I do have some great ideas of my own sometimes!}

To give credit....I copied the birdbath from Salvage Dior's blog, and the bottles, that are everywhere from Coastal Charm.I already had plans to make the bottles..Just got hung up on soldering...just could'nt do it.  I Already had the broken iron bird thingie and pot and plenty of rocks that are weighing it in. 

So,  now you know..the rest of the story!!
