A few Mother's Day goodies!

My middle son, Brad, has the most amazing taste. He also knows what I love! For Mother's Day he gave me the most wonderful framed print, you know I love this!! And also a set of gorgeous coasters with sepia toned images. I just love it all ~ he's always been so very thoughtful, thank you sweet Brad!





***************************************

Now this is looking a little more realistic. I had forgotten a few necessary items that I just have to have on my workspace. I've been sorting and grouping so when I need to find something, I'll know where it is!




Another thing that I collect are vintage baby clothes patterns. I love the illustrations, their faces are just precious!


I'm so excited!!! For Mother's Day my husband is taking me to Scott's Antique Market tomorrow and is giving me MONEY!!! I'll be sure share with you what I find . . . I've just got to get this artroom finished. I am really needing to create ~ the neater it gets, the more I want to make something (which in turn messes it back up!) Oh well ~

Have a great Saturday!!! xxoo, Dawn

A trip to the antique market and cash - what more can a girl ask for? Took me a long time to hint that a trip to the antique or garden show makes my heart sing far more than dozens of roses that have to be tossed out in a few days. Can't wait to see the treasures you find.
Happy Mother's Day,
Annie

You inspired me to clean up my work space yesterday. I spent most of the morning organizing, and making things tidy. Thanks to you I once again can see my work table.

Hi Dawn,

I'm so proud of you, girl, with being in the magazines and selling your beautiful creations!! :)

What lovely treats for Mother's Day ~ I know you are tickled pink with the sweet print from Brad (it isn't signed Da Vinci anywhere is it? :) and the pretty coaster set.

I love the perky little rabbits in your workspace. They look soft and completely pet-able.

Wow, a husband that finally knows what his wife wants for Mother's Day....a trip to the antique mall!! He's a definite keeper!! Hope you have fun and find lots of new treasures!

Hugs, Bebe :)
