These sites will give you info

are participating tomorrow.

The best part is it is FREE!!!!

Go check these out and take a

walk in a garden near YOU!

On a different note: I wanted

to show you what my students

made for their Mom's. "Rag"

wreaths.

I provided small hoops and

fabric which I cut into strips.

With the help of an adult, each

child help tie the fabric to the

hoops. They did a great job!

Here is the one I made. I

made mine with a print

and a solid. To make things

easier the kids used one

print. I think they are so

cute. I hope their Mom's

like them.

Happy Mom's Day !

Treasure Hunting

Yesterday we hit a neighborhood garage sale(s). Mr. Ken bought a fireplace screen, some speakers, a cassette deck to change tapes to CD's and a wood clock that looks like a guitar.

I picked up a cool clock picture,

some books, a really nice mirror

and four file boxes.

I also picked up a small purse, a

"Colonial Barbie", a large print,

a cute little Christmas tree with

ornaments and a laptop stand.

Here is the print. We

hung it in our kitchen.

I put the print where this

picture used to be and

then we moved this one to

the other side of the shelf.

Here is how it all looks together.

Looks good, don't you think?

For those of you who don't know-

this IS NOT my choice in wallpaper!

One day it will be GONE!!!

Here is the mirror in our hall.

Our bedroom is to the left of

the mirror as you look at the

picture. The room you see in

the mirror is the guest room

and at one time the house

ended there. The former

family added a large master

bedroom on at some point

and time.

The clock picture is downstairs

in the family room--didn't get a

picture of it.

Well, that is it for our treasure

hunt. Hit any sales lately?

Light at the End of the Tunnel!

Just saying---this is how many days I

have left of the school year AND yes

I am counting! :) I am sooo looking

forward to some time off.

This has been a pretty hard year. Some

R and R is in order.
