So many kindred spirits ~

It seems this blogging world gathers together
those who truly are kindred spirits ~

I've made so many friends
by having this ol' blog and the wonderful thing is

we all love the same things!!!!

Our blogs attract like-minded friends...

artistic friends,

decorating friends,

friends with teenagers,

friends with toddlers,

friends who love to sew,

or friends who maybe even enjoy cooking!!!!

The list goes on and on, doesn't it?

Those who end up reading your blog and the blogs you end up

loving as well will most likely have TONS in common with you and

then you know you are indeed,

kindred spirits!!!

I arrived at the airport last Thursday afternoon
and found Lisa and her sweet babies waiting

for me right outside and we didn't even skip a beat!!!!

Right from talking on the phone to

flapping our jaws in person....

it was wonderful ~

Well, Friday we took off and were on our way to Ann's

but had planned a stop at Winnie & Tulula's

to meet Debby of Talkin' Trash and enjoy this incredible shop!!

Here are a few pics I took at Winnie & Tulula's:
Look at that Deb working the window!!!

We had the MOST fun with sweet Deb of Talking Trash and had

lunch at the bistro inside the shop ~ it was so DELISH!!

 We loved the menus created from old books and torn papers....

The gorgeous space of Daphne Nicole & Lynda Cade ~

It was such a great afternoon!! I just love these girls.....

I hope you've enjoyed the tour...OH and I forgot to tell you,

I bought the most INCREDIBLY beautiful

net panels to hang in our living room

on those huge old windows!!!

And you know as soon as I have them hung I'll give you a peek :)

Have a very happy Wednesday precious friends

and sweet kindred spirits ~

hugs and love,

Dawn
