This is the second video I've watched of yours. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE everything!! And that gorgeous 3 tiered tray on that great table runner is just so, so country and wonderful. I'll be looking forward to more of your videos and catching up on former ones I haven't seen yet. You really have a beautiful spirit! It's just so nice watching and listening to you. You're down to earth! God bless you!
Hi Arlynn,beautiful job,love how the three tiered wrought iron tray turned out.You know your stuff .The powder room is sweet,love the owls on the wreath.I love your videos and you always make me laugh,thank you for that!! See you in your next video my sweet friend.
I'm sure I speak for the majority of us when I say that we enjoy even the smallest of projects, not just the grandiose one's. I know that is the case for me. I try not to gush too much, but there is something very comforting in watching you tackle anything, big or small. When you are talking and sharing with us, it is like visiting with a good friend, and who couldn't like that? So I think it is safe to say that you have us hooked, and we will follow anywhere that you lead. Carry on girl!
I must have "followed" late in this series as I keep getting new notifications of videos I missed. lolI am so enjoying watching you decorate and the inspiration. Once again another beautiful episode.
Hey Arlynn.......I could watch you decorate all day long :) LOVE your 3 tier tray, you always find the best trays......so cute how you decorated it. Your powder room is adorable, love the paint color........you are getting there girl, it is so nice for you to take us along with you while you transition to your country decor. Thank you so much for sharing, it's pretty darn cold here in Eastern Canada, I am all jammied up with cozy slippers watching you........Happy Sunday, take care XO
Hey there Hunnie B...You are so sweet gf. :) I was super happy with how that little tray turned out, that is the first time I'd ever tried something like that...I love doing new and different things like that. :) And it is truly my pleasure to bring you sweet folks along with me...y'all make my day just about every day!! I too am all jammied up her in Virginia too...my gracious it is so cold (supposed to warm up and rain tomorrow...that's okay with me..haha). You take care too dear lady! xox
Amazing how you just put things together. You are so good at it. Too bad I can't get you to come and do my house. ha! Got a lot of good ideas. Love your words of inspiration. They really make it. Hey from El Paso, TX
Hi Arlynn, you’ve done it again, another beautiful job!! I love your table vignettes and the way you piece your arrangements together, it’s so fun to watch your creativity come out. :) How’s your weather? We got some snow ❄️ but now it’s super windy outside, schools are all closed, so we are in for a cozy day inside. You can bet I will be working on some “cozy corners” of my own today. ;) Stay warm. ❄️⛄️🔥 xo, Liz
As always Arlynn, very beautiful !!! I have a three tiered galvanized tray on my dining room table and I just love decorating it for the season/holidays. It is just so much fun. Thanks for sharing!
So much fun! You are bringing my mojo back! I spent several hours creating today, and I loved it, thanks to inspiration from you! We have been through so much trauma here that I abandoned my zest for decorating and dreaming... Thank you!!!!
Hey there Gayla...First, I'm so sorry about all of the trauma there...so hard to do anything else when one is in the midst of something like that...(((Hugs)))...
As always you decorate your home in a warm cozy inviting way that makes you want to stay for a visit !!! Your three tiered tray turned out awesome. Thanks for sharing your wonderful self with us all and inspiring us all to try new things. Hugs sweet lady.
I caught up on your UA-cam!! Love the 3 tier tray. I love working iron in my decor. Everything looks great!! It gave me a couple ideas😊😅!! I loved the butterflies too? Where are you putting your new Christmas gift(dog)? I didn’t see it with the other dog figurine.. This year I worked on pink Christmas decor and really loving the snowmen decor and also the truck decor which I will keep out with my everyday decor.. so that was three new things I enjoyed this Christmas 😊... stay warm up there!!!!
I think Mr Pup is telling it all. Look at how happy and cozy he is .... Loved everything, you did a wonderful job making everything look very cozy and beautiful.... 💞😊
Apparently we like your presentation and explanation that even the small arrangements are fun to watch. Dang that Hobby Lobby for not having the burlap flowers. I love them too. The three tier is my favorite. So Arlynnesk. Also, we LOVE long visits with you. Short ones are disappointing. Thanks sweet friend.
Hi Susan...Awww, thank you so much girl!! And I agree about Hobby Lobby...grrrr. ;) Thanks about that three tiered tray...Arlynnesk...so very sweet of you to say!! Thank you for watching!!
Arlynn I am so proud of you. Doing all of this in front of us. I knew something was missing. All of your new things are beautiful and you have just begun. Your signs are great. I hope they will be available when I get some money. Love you to pieces.
Hi Sandy, thank you so, so much girl...I SO appreciate all of your sweet words, and I hope those signs are available too girl...btw, they were on sale at my Cracker Barrel...in with the "Farmhouse" decor. :)
I love that you are so down to earth with your decorating--nothing in life is perfect--and you embrace this. Your little touches with your new little signs, as well as the older signs which have special family meaning, are such sweet mementos. I'm loving your tray because it reflects your likes-not Pinterest's!! ;) Keep doing what you're doing!
Hi Melissa....Awww, thank you so very much for saying all of that girl...I rarely look at Pinterest truly...I guess I should more often..haha. But, yeah, I'd rather make something that shows off my interests and passions than someone else's...Thanks again!!!
So beautiful. I love country decor. Your house is like a show home or one in a magazine. I dont know how you keep everything so clean and dusted. Thank you for sharing and inspiring!!!
You have no idea how happy it makes me feel to wake up in the mornings (I live in Australia 🇦🇺) to get notifications that you have been busy and posted another video...you are an amazing Lady and I love everything you do. I made some of your funky bows for Christmas and tied them to my antique lanterns which I put in the bathroom and kitchen... they got quite a few comments, I was very pleased with how they turned out but I will do better next year. I will start much earlier and play some more....Thank You once again for sharing your talents with us, I hope you and your family all have a wonderful 2018......💖💕
Hi Linda! Aww, thank you so much, I'm so glad to hear that you made some funky bows and got compliments on them, they really do make a big statement. :) Thank you for watching and taking the time to send me back such positive comments!
Hi Arlynn- I love your 3 tier tray. You did a great job. The little signs really set it off. You are one very talented lady. Can't wait to see what's next. Many Blessings to you & Chris.😊❤️
I love the hodge podge of this video. I so love how you decorate. You have a magic touch to make the simplest thing gorgeous when paired with something I would not have thought of. Love, Bonnie
Hi Debbie...Thank you so, so much girl, and yeah, Chris is like the energizer bunny, he is always doing something. :) I hope that you stay warm this evening too gf!!
I have a lot of Boyd's Bears (both stuffed and resin) packed away. I really like the way they look on your powder room shelf. Now I'm thinking about unpacking some of mine. Thanks for bring up your measuring cups again. ;-) LOL Thanks for all the inspiration you bring us.
I just love your house .You sure make them house warm and inviting with all your beautiful arrangements and cozy corners.I know your busy transforming back to your regular decor but when you finish that could you please show how you made the burlap wearth. I will be looking forward to the next video.
Hi Linda...Thank you so very much dear lady, I sure appreciate every single word!! I will definitely try to get a voice-over about that wreath that I made for the powder room. (Thank you so much for mentioning that btw, I meant to put a link to my blog post about it in the description...I will add that up there now, but here it is for you). :)
I love all the treasures in the powder room, small scale decorating is just as nice . THe three tiered tray is so pretty , love it much more so than the galvanized versions. Those silicone light bulbs are so neat! Can’t wait to see your new Kincaid painting with the frame and new mat.
Thank you so very much 3stinkers...I appreciate you sayin that small scale decorating is just as nice. :) Thanks about the three tiered tray...and all of your other lovely words!!
Beautiful, as always. If I may make a quick suggestion for your flowers that get crunched in storage: use your hair dryer (or any hot air blow dryer) and blow the petals in the direction they should go, allowing the fabric to heat up just a touch, but long enough, or as many times as it takes, for the petals to staighten out and lay more natural. Use a glove if your hand is sensitive to the heat though. I have to do it every year for the poinsettias I put on my Christmas tree. They look like new every year.
I've been watching since before Christmas and love your videos and yes there is cream colored zinnias we plant them every year for our city and they're called State Fair zinnias there's pink red orange and the cream color I could listen to you all day long you are so sweet thanks for all you do
Hi Arlynn!! Boy, Chris is really on it :D!! Love the fact that he had the powder room painted already. Great job, looks fantastic!! The tray came out so pretty. A hodge podge video is just fine ; ). Preparing for a snow storm for tomorrow :(. Hope you guys are having a nice evening!
Hi Donna, I know it girl, I can hardly keep up with Chris, he is a busy fella! Thank you so much for all of your lovely words sweet lady!!! I hope you have a nice evening too...we're sitting here watching tv and I'm commenting back to you lovelies. :)
Hi Arlynn, Happy 2018 I love wrought iron decor and the tray is lovely. Love watching you. Im not a crafter but I like your decor and ideas and also I enjoy watching your babies. Can't wait for your next video. Blessings
Your 3-tiered wrought iron stand is lovely! I love it with the gold and burgundy, and especially the cardinals. I’m not much of a fan of the very primitive look with a bunch of galvanized this and that - I have a couple of small metal buckets on my kitchen table to hold straws and sweetener packets, but that’s it. My take on a tiered stand is going to be a cut glass pedestal cake stand, topped with a cut glass pedestal candy dish that I DIY’ed, and probably another DIY’ed cut glass somethin’-somethin’ (maybe a thrifted cut glass sugar bowl). I’m also working on a gallery wall for my kitchen. Phew - time for a nap! LOL Enjoy your day, and I hope the coming winter storm doesn’t affect you!
Hey there Del...Thank you so much dear lady...I so appreciate you saying that. I LOVE the idea that you have for a cut glass stand...that is going to be gorgeous!!! AND I bet that gallery wall is coming together beautifully!! We are supposed to get a bit of snow, but, not as much as those North of us...It is SO stinkin' cold up here though...I think I'd much rather be there where you are. ;) Let me take a moment here to thank you so much for always being so positive and seeing the good in things...I totally appreciate that!!
Well, well, well Miss Arlynn, I came into the office to check the weather and lo and behold you were already in my rotation for the day. Soooooooooo, I grabbed a cup of coffee and came in for a break...Chris opened the refrigerator and I had to put you on pause so I could go get me some lunch making this time with you become my lunch break today. So when I returned for the vlog sit, I munched and sipped my way through your deco of the day. You know girl, you make hoarding sound like a bad thing and I just don't want my kids thinking that so sshh!!! I like the powder room black unit as it makes the cream really pop up there. Chris does a very nice job of painting, think he'd come to the mitten state for a week or so and paint our retirement cottage? :) I'm in the process right now of finding a good painter through Sherwin Williams as our whole house is on the 2018 to do list. No...I have yet to decide the color. Decisions don't come easy for me. I really do like that star runner. Sooo country, and the black 3 tiered tray looks very nice on it. But I'm not used to symmetrical Arlynn going asymmetrical. New year, new ideas. I guess you're reinventing yourself again. Your island will feel all warm and fuzzy with the new look and I like, REALLY like it. I really like the zinnias too. I'm afraid I'd be looking at zinnies and not the tv. I am thinking that you are going to be very happy with the little changes and new additions you are making in your "ordinary time" décor. It looks VERY nice. Country Home charm is so cozy and inviting, guess that's why we all peek in on you each and very time you open the door to us. Be a seein' ya dear youtube friend as you say goodbye and my coffee cup is empty. Another hour of pure contentment!!!!:):):):)
You are so sweet Vicki...Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to spend with me and to leave me such wonderful comments. :) And yeah, how about me stepping right on out of my symmetrical box and doing a little something different...gotta stretch those muscles sometimes huh gf? ;) I LOVE this zinnias too, NO matter the time of year. :) Thanks you so much again and I'll be seeing' ya dear youtube friend soon. :)
Everything looks beautiful! Once again you are an inspiration to decorate after Christmas. After Christmas is such a hard time to decorate in my home I love how you use the gerber daisies and red cardinals, also my state of OH state bird. Thanks so much for sharing!
Hi Arlynn..well Chris doesn't hang about when something needs painting does he!The powder room looks great...I love the greige colour. The three tiered stand looks perfect..I was hoping you'd put some of the bells on and the signs look lovely too. I'm excited to see the Robert Kinkaide picture when it's up. Take care,love and hugs.
HI Gillian, you are so right, Chris is like the energizer bunny, always doing something (I really can't talk..haha). ;) Thank you so much for your sweet words...love and hugs right back to you gf!
As always so talented! The shelf you put together in your powder room should be featured in Country Living---just perfect! Can you share where I might look for one of the spool lights? Thank you for sharing!
Aww, thank you so very much Cathy!!! SO sweet to say that my little shelf should be featured in Country Living. :) Unfortunately, I'm not sure where you'd be able to find spool lights...possibly Amazon or eBay now a days? I purchased all of mine at a craft show in Occoquan, Virginia many years (over a decade ago). Thank you so much for watching!
Hi Arlynn! We just move from Fl to North Carolina a few weeks ago and I finally have time to catch up with all your wonderful videos. Love your powder room! Wishing you and your family many blessings for 2018. This weekend I'm marathoning all your Christmas videos. Can't wait! Take care. Lisa
Hi Lisa...OH gosh girl...that's a big move for you...I hope you are not in line for that snow that is gonna hit so many. Thank you for all of your sweet words, and those Christmas videos...bless your heart, they might take you all weekend to watch...haha...there are many. ;)
Hi Arlynn how are you doing today sweet pea . Sorry I haven’t messaged you in a while I have been in bed with the Australian flu 🤧 oh my gosh I was bad . So I’m catching up on your videos and this one is fantastic love all the pretty colours . I will be off out Friday to buy a lantern & tray with some bits and bobs I will also be doing a cosy corner just hope it turns out has good has yours hehehe . Keep safe sweet pea and take good care xx🇬🇧🇺🇸xx🎀🕯🐦🐦🌼⭐️⭐️
Donna - Hey Sweet lady!! I’m so sorry to hear that you’ve been so sick! Bless your heart!! Thank you for your sweet words here and I’m glad you are back on the mend! ❤️
Love the way you did the3 tier arrangement! Where did you get your stars on stands? Love them. I love all your arrangement. I just started taking down my Christmas decorations and you’re giving me ideas. Ty for sharing!!
Oh I so enjoyed this vlog today but then I do everyday! LOL So fun to come in and visit with you in your home. So welcoming and so pleasant...........laid back with pretty things to enjoy and look at. Everything is turning out so so cute! You have been a busy gal these past several months and always if I am thinking right!
Awww, thank you so much Mary Lou..So sweet of you to say...I so appreciate all of your positivity!!!! And you're right about us needing to take another cruise to recuperate...it has been non-stop around here for months (as I'm sure it has been at your home too). :) God Bless you too gf...again, thank you so much for all of your sweet words!!
Arlynn Thank you for inspiration. I look forward to your videos everyday. Can you tell me where you got your If tears could build a stairway sign? Oh and I would love to have a backyard like yours. So peaceful looking.
Beautiful as always. ..at min. 20.53 or around there , you have a big orb followed by a smaller orb.don,t know if you belive in spirt but it might be somthing...had to do a double check on this .Not trying to scare you .check it out for yourself.
Hi Karen...If you're talking about my candle holder that I used to have on my island, I got that from Yankee Candle several years ago. If you are maybe talking about my 3 tiered tray...I believe I got that from Hobby Lobby 2-3 years ago...I already owned it, I didn't go out and buy it for this craft. :) Thank you so much for your sweet words!!
Arlynn, I love your country decor............I am hoping you are not going to go to the Farmhouse style that is all over the internet. I love that you use color in your decor........... I hope this does not sound mean.........It is not my intent. I just love your current style so much, You are such a beautiful lady inside and out.
Susan- Thanks so much!! I don’t have plans to go farmhouse… I would have to change everything out and like I have explained before the way I came up with my Decor was that I listed all of my favorite things and then I incorporated everything that I liked into my Decor. I do like farmhouse but I like the way I do things better, there may be a touch of farmhouse here and there but I will always incorporate color. ☺️❤️
Wow knock some people in the head. I do not know what part of I DO NOT DO WINTER FLOWERS IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND. Just as always I do the flowers I like favorite and color I like. I do not think that so hard.
This is the second video I've watched of yours. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE everything!! And that gorgeous 3 tiered tray on that great table runner is just so, so country and wonderful. I'll be looking forward to more of your videos and catching up on former ones I haven't seen yet. You really have a beautiful spirit! It's just so nice watching and listening to you. You're down to earth! God bless you!

(Thank you so much for mentioning that btw, I meant to put a link to my blog post about it in the description...I will add that up there now, but here it is for you). :)
Look at LTD Commodities site at their home decor. They have alot of country star decor items. There quality is good but shipping is slow.
Yessssssss,We love your videos !!!
Thank you so, so much Brenda!!
I love all the treasures in the powder room, small scale decorating is just as nice . THe three tiered tray is so pretty , love it much more so than the galvanized versions. Those silicone light bulbs are so neat! Can’t wait to see your new Kincaid painting with the frame and new mat.
Thank you so very much 3stinkers...I appreciate you sayin that small scale decorating is just as nice. :) Thanks about the three tiered tray...and all of your other lovely words!!
I sure hope you don’t mind because I sure get a lot of good ideas from you
Beautiful, as always. If I may make a quick suggestion for your flowers that get crunched in storage: use your hair dryer (or any hot air blow dryer) and blow the petals in the direction they should go, allowing the fabric to heat up just a touch, but long enough, or as many times as it takes, for the petals to staighten out and lay more natural. Use a glove if your hand is sensitive to the heat though. I have to do it every year for the poinsettias I put on my Christmas tree. They look like new every year.
Thanks so much for that suggestion Wendy!!! I appreciate it. :)
I've been watching since before Christmas and love your videos and yes there is cream colored zinnias we plant them every year for our city and they're called State Fair zinnias there's pink red orange and the cream color I could listen to you all day long you are so sweet thanks for all you do
Hi Rose...Awwwww, goooooood to hear that there really are cream colored zinnias...Thank you so much for watching and spending a little time with me!
I love the 3 tier arrangement. I think this type would look cute in the galvanize tier you just got. Can't wait to try this with my spring birds.
Thanks Pamela!!! I so appreciate your sweet words!!
Very nice! Ur home is so lovely 😊 & homey! I love ❤️ it!

Thank you very much Anna!!!
I enjoy all your videos, Arlynn. Thank you:)
Hi Honey...Thank you so, so much sweet lady!
Hi Arlynn!! Boy, Chris is really on it :D!! Love the fact that he had the powder room painted already. Great job, looks fantastic!! The tray came out so pretty. A hodge podge video is just fine ; ). Preparing for a snow storm for tomorrow :(. Hope you guys are having a nice evening!
Hi Donna, I know it girl, I can hardly keep up with Chris, he is a busy fella! Thank you so much for all of your lovely words sweet lady!!! I hope you have a nice evening too...we're sitting here watching tv and I'm commenting back to you lovelies. :)
You rocked that 3 tired tray! It turned out very nice ! Happy hugs!
Aww, thanks you so very much Tammy!!
Hi Arlynn, Happy 2018
I love wrought iron decor and the tray is lovely. Love watching you. Im not a crafter but I like your decor and ideas and also I enjoy watching your babies. Can't wait for your next video. Blessings
Hi Elizabeth, thank you so, so much...how sweet of you to come to watch me and my fur babies. :) Blessings to you too!!
wow everything is soo.. beutiful
Hi Maria...Thank you so very much!!
Your 3-tiered wrought iron stand is lovely! I love it with the gold and burgundy, and especially the cardinals. I’m not much of a fan of the very primitive look with a bunch of galvanized this and that - I have a couple of small metal buckets on my kitchen table to hold straws and sweetener packets, but that’s it. My take on a tiered stand is going to be a cut glass pedestal cake stand, topped with a cut glass pedestal candy dish that I DIY’ed, and probably another DIY’ed cut glass somethin’-somethin’ (maybe a thrifted cut glass sugar bowl). I’m also working on a gallery wall for my kitchen. Phew - time for a nap! LOL Enjoy your day, and I hope the coming winter storm doesn’t affect you!
Hey there Del...Thank you so much dear lady...I so appreciate you saying that. I LOVE the idea that you have for a cut glass stand...that is going to be gorgeous!!! AND I bet that gallery wall is coming together beautifully!! We are supposed to get a bit of snow, but, not as much as those North of us...It is SO stinkin' cold up here though...I think I'd much rather be there where you are. ;) Let me take a moment here to thank you so much for always being so positive and seeing the good in things...I totally appreciate that!!
Well, well, well Miss Arlynn, I came into the office to check the weather and lo and behold you were already in my rotation for the day. Soooooooooo, I grabbed a cup of coffee and came in for a break...Chris opened the refrigerator and I had to put you on pause so I could go get me some lunch making this time with you become my lunch break today. So when I returned for the vlog sit, I munched and sipped my way through your deco of the day. You know girl, you make hoarding sound like a bad thing and I just don't want my kids thinking that so sshh!!! I like the powder room black unit as it makes the cream really pop up there. Chris does a very nice job of painting, think he'd come to the mitten state for a week or so and paint our retirement cottage? :) I'm in the process right now of finding a good painter through Sherwin Williams as our whole house is on the 2018 to do list. No...I have yet to decide the color. Decisions don't come easy for me. I really do like that star runner. Sooo country, and the black 3 tiered tray looks very nice on it. But I'm not used to symmetrical Arlynn going asymmetrical. New year, new ideas. I guess you're reinventing yourself again. Your island will feel all warm and fuzzy with the new look and I like, REALLY like it. I really like the zinnias too. I'm afraid I'd be looking at zinnies and not the tv. I am thinking that you are going to be very happy with the little changes and new additions you are making in your "ordinary time" décor. It looks VERY nice. Country Home charm is so cozy and inviting, guess that's why we all peek in on you each and very time you open the door to us. Be a seein' ya dear youtube friend as you say goodbye and my coffee cup is empty. Another hour of pure contentment!!!!:):):):)
You are so sweet Vicki...Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to spend with me and to leave me such wonderful comments. :) And yeah, how about me stepping right on out of my symmetrical box and doing a little something different...gotta stretch those muscles sometimes huh gf? ;) I LOVE this zinnias too, NO matter the time of year. :) Thanks you so much again and I'll be seeing' ya dear youtube friend soon. :)
Everything looks beautiful! Once again you are an inspiration to decorate after Christmas. After Christmas is such a hard time to decorate in my home I love how you use the gerber daisies and red cardinals, also my state of OH state bird. Thanks so much for sharing!
Kathy, thanks sooooo much for saying that gf, especially about the gerbers. ❤️
Hi Arlynn..well Chris doesn't hang about when something needs painting does he!The powder room looks great...I love the greige colour. The three tiered stand looks perfect..I was hoping you'd put some of the bells on and the signs look lovely too. I'm excited to see the Robert Kinkaide picture when it's up. Take care,love and hugs.
HI Gillian, you are so right, Chris is like the energizer bunny, always doing something (I really can't talk..haha). ;) Thank you so much for your sweet words...love and hugs right back to you gf!
Love your runner my kitchen is in burgundy love the plaid but can’t find any in Las Vegas I’m 83 and really enjoy watching u
Hi Cletheline...Thank you so very much, I really appreciate you take the time to come and visit and spend some time wit me here. :)
As always so talented! The shelf you put together in your powder room should be featured in Country Living---just perfect! Can you share where I might look for one of the spool lights? Thank you for sharing!
Aww, thank you so very much Cathy!!! SO sweet to say that my little shelf should be featured in Country Living. :) Unfortunately, I'm not sure where you'd be able to find spool lights...possibly Amazon or eBay now a days? I purchased all of mine at a craft show in Occoquan, Virginia many years (over a decade ago). Thank you so much for watching!
Very very beautiful
Thank you so very much Lala!!

Love the way you did the3 tier arrangement! Where did you get your stars on stands? Love them. I love all your arrangement. I just started taking down my Christmas decorations and you’re giving me ideas. Ty for sharing!!

Oh I so enjoyed this vlog today but then I do everyday! LOL So fun to come in and visit with you in your home. So welcoming and so pleasant...........laid back with pretty things to enjoy and look at. Everything is turning out so so cute! You have been a busy gal these past several months and always if I am thinking right!
Awww, thank you so much Mary Lou..So sweet of you to say...I so appreciate all of your positivity!!!! And you're right about us needing to take another cruise to recuperate...it has been non-stop around here for months (as I'm sure it has been at your home too). :) God Bless you too gf...again, thank you so much for all of your sweet words!!
Arlynn Thank you for inspiration. I look forward to your videos everyday. Can you tell me where you got your If tears could build a stairway sign? Oh and I would love to have a backyard like yours. So peaceful looking.
Hi razzledscrapper...Thank you so much sweet lady!! And sure thing about that little sign, I picked that up at Hobby Lobby. :)
I was going to ask about your granite. mine looks just like yours, but mine is new vineician gold. I love it.
Hi Tammy---I think I said that my granite is "Santa Cecelia Gold"..I bet yours Is absolutely lovely!!!
Beautiful as always. ..at min. 20.53 or around there , you have a big orb followed by a smaller orb.don,t know if you belive in spirt but it might be somthing...had to do a double check on this .Not trying to scare you .check it out for yourself.
Hi JoAnne...I did see those at 20.53...I do certainly believe in spirit. :) That didn't scare me at all hun, I promise. :)
I love the wrought iron candle holder. Where did you purchase it? You have great taste. I look forward to your sweet smiling face.
Hi Karen...If you're talking about my candle holder that I used to have on my island, I got that from Yankee Candle several years ago. If you are maybe talking about my 3 tiered tray...I believe I got that from Hobby Lobby 2-3 years ago...I already owned it, I didn't go out and buy it for this craft. :) Thank you so much for your sweet words!!
Where did you purchase the 3 tiered stand? I love wrought iron. I see you do also. Love
Hi Karen...I *believe* I purchased that stand at Hobby Lobby, but, it has been a couple of years ago. :)
Arlynn, I love your country decor............I am hoping you are not going to go to the Farmhouse style that is all over the internet. I love that you use color in your decor........... I hope this does not sound mean.........It is not my intent. I just love your current style so much, You are such a beautiful lady inside and out.
Susan- Thanks so much!! I don’t have plans to go farmhouse… I would have to change everything out and like I have explained before the way I came up with my Decor was that I listed all of my favorite things and then I incorporated everything that I liked into my Decor. I do like farmhouse but I like the way I do things better, there may be a touch of farmhouse here and there but I will always incorporate color. ☺️❤️
Wow knock some people in the head. I do not know what part of I DO NOT DO WINTER FLOWERS IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND. Just as always I do the flowers I like favorite and color I like. I do not think that so hard.
Sandy ❤️ Thanks so much gf! ❤️
