What magic you worked with your paintbrush and your nimble fingers. All the embroidered pieces were lovely! I have the exact same picture of the three girls above my mantle and it never fails to delight me when I walk by. Sending you warmest wishes of this season. Alleluia, the Lord has come!
Do you really have that same print?? I should have known you would have it! It's such a mesmerizing scene... so wholesome! 😊 I have always loved embroidering, but through the years I have strayed from it and then come back to it freshly enthused all over again. The older I get, the more I love quiet needle work 💕 🪡 🧵 💕
The barn is on hold because we have been too tied up doing other things, but we will get back to it as soon as we can! And I will surely post videos of our progress! 😃 ✨️
Marla I love all your thrift flips. I love the way you decorate your home. I hope I can go to more thrift stores in 2025 and use some of your ideas to decorate my home. I pray that you have a blessed and Very Merry Christmas! I pray that we all celebrate Christmas for the true reason of the season. God bless!
Thank you for your kind words, Kathryn! Let me tell you a funny. I fell asleep in my chair with my feet on my ottoman. I must have slept hard for 30 minutes, because when I woke up, I said to myself, "Well that's just gorgeous..." and I was looking at my own mantle with the lanterns and my Christmas tree!! 😄 Now that's quite a hard nap if you forget you're in your own house!! 😆 🤣 😂
Marla!.....I am soooooo happy to see you are back posting videos again. I have missed you! Merriest of Christmases to you and yours from a fan in Canada.🥰
