I'm so happy!!

My Papa and mama have arrived! My sweet mama has brought some photos of the new artwork she has been working on and I LOVE it all!! Her artwork is so pretty and sweet!! She just uploaded her new collages to her flickr account. Click ALittleBitMagic! if you would like to check it out. Here are a few sneak peeks of her work.......

Soon she will be uploading photos of her beautiful jewelry and original oil paintings, too! I will let you all know when she does!

Egg hunting and house cleaning....A fun Easter was had by all here at our house. It was my 3-year-old's first time dying Easter eggs and he loved it!The boys had the best time hunting for eggs!
Today I am busy cleaning my little cottage in preparation for my parent's visit. They are coming to stay for a week or so and I can't wait!Here is a photo of my sweet Mama and me. We always have the best time and we always visit our favorite antique stores when she visits. This time I will bring along my camera and show you some photos of some of my favorite antique stores!
Well, I'm off to scrub and clean.... if only I had this cute red and white polka dress to wear while I 'm doing so!

Happy Easter!! Welcome Spring!!Just a few photos of my hutch decorated for Easter and Spring!! These are a few of my favorite things...
Pretty spools of thread, vintage flowers, sparkling belt buckles, a vintage clock....
a sweet bunny, chintz, lovely and sweet vintage cards.....
my McCoy vase in the perfect shade of aqua blue and a favorite vintage corsage flower...
more sweet vintage postcards and a sweet pink and blue pie bird that I adore.....
a lovely rose pitcher and sweet vintage teacup............a sweet little girl all ready for an Easter egg hunt and pretty plate and creamy vase....a gorgeous heart made from the prettiest rose fabric my sweet mama made for me......
and lastly, a thrift store find, this lovely birdcage! It was an awful dark green so I painted it a pretty shade of aqua blue and how perfect that it came with the sweet pink birdie already inside!! (and I just realized I forgot to take out the ugly old dark green feeder cups and reattach the bottom of the cage! I get so impatient when I want to photograph things!) Hope you all have a wonderful Easter day with your families and happy Springtime to you!!

Happy Easter!!Who me? No photos of a hutch decorated for Easter? The girl who redecorates her hutch at least every couple of weeks? Surely, there must be some mistake! Easter is two days away! Well, I'll see what I can do about that. For now, here are a couple of sweet Easter postcards. Hope you all have a wonderful Easter!! Oh, I almost forgot to tell you I haven't posted for so long because my computer was broken, but all is well with it now (hopefully!) so will be posting more soon!
