It's A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood!
Today is Sweater Day in honor of the late and beloved Mr. Rogers. Generations went inside Mr. Rogers' House to hear a story, feed the fish, or follow the trolley to The Land of Make Believe. Mr. Rogers started each show by entering his house and changing into one of his many colorful sweaters and a pair of comfortable sneakers. Today would have been Mr. Rogers' 80th birthday, so put on your favorite sweater, create something from your imagination, or just curl up with a good book. And if by chance you have little ones that may never know the beloved Mr. Rogers, they can visit his home and The Land of Make Believe here.

"So, won't you be mine,
Won't you be mine,
Won't you be my neighbor?"


Ok, now here's the pic that some of you have been waiting for.....

The AFTER Picture

Hugs and Blessings,

Easter Swap

I heard from Sherry today, and she received her package from me. So with that, I can now share with you what I sent to her.
So, here goes.....
Here is her Easter basket that I decorated for her. This is on one side of it. I put pink mini pom-pom ribbon around the existing twine handle.

On the other side, I put felt letters spelling out "Happy Easter". Then on either side of the handle, I placed one of the glitter bunnies that I bought a while back at Hobby Lobby. The sweet little duckling has an ever-so-slight amount of glitter on him.

One of Sherry's favorite spring colors is yellow. So I added two sweet little handkerchiefs in yellow. I placed pale yellow and mint colored beaded egg ornaments on top of the handkerchiefs in the basket.

I had such fun making this for Sherry. I used vintage jewery, millenery, lace, ribbons, a tiny plastic egg, and bunny to make this Easter Panorama.

I thought this was a sweet little bunny egg-shaped bowl.

I got these eggs from one of my favorite online shops, Piper Classics. I got some for me too, and put them in my huge apothecary jar. The little bunny tin holds a deck of egg-shaped playing cards.

I found these wonderful Easter goodies on Etsy. Aren't they just wonderful!?

And last but not least, I added a Dove chocolate bunny and two Easter tins with chocolate chip cookies.

Sherry said that she loved everything. I am sooooo glad! I had such fun in this Easter Swap!


Hair today, Gone tomorrow!

Take a good look at the hair. Tomorrow morning, it all comes off! I'll post an AFTER pic tomorrow for you.
