I-Spy with my little eye

April 28, 2011 3 Comments
So I'm going to have to start off with an apology. I know I learned somewhere that you are never supposed to start something off with an apology, but I've forgotten what and when I learned this, so as you can tell I was a stupendous student. :)

Anyways, on to my apology. I have no idea how to photograph a quilt, and so the pictures that are here today are not the best, in my opinion of course. :)

So enough digressing about my {lack of} photography skills and lets get to these quilts.

A Promise is a Promise...

So I had planned on at least trying to improve the tablescape, but didn't happen. Yesterday was so busy!

Mom is not cleared to drive yet, but she doesn't need surgery {score!!}; however she is still only in the splint and ace bandage for another week.  So the boys and I were her chariot service yesterday. We had a lot of fun, and I got some of my errands done too, but when we did get home there was very little time to get everything done. So it didn't all get done, some because  of time and some because of lack of tools.

So without any further yammering on my part - Here's the Easter tablescape. Not my best work, but passable I think. :)

In the Interim

So I have several projects in the works, but I have no pictures of them. Nor are they done.

So that leaves me with a whole lotta nuttin' to show you, BUT I can revisit last year's Easter tablescape. 1 - because I'm not completely happy with this year's tablescape and 2 - it was early in my bloggy life, so some of you guys may not have seen it. :)

So here we go! :)

Egg Hunt Mantle

April 11, 2011 2 Comments
Sorry for the delay with today's post, but we had an exciting day yesterday. I had my first Tastefully Simple party {yay!} and then the boys and I went over to Mom and Dad's for dinner, which was lovely! Then we all got  ice cream and Harrison ate some of everyone's.  Then we had some more excitement that I'll share more later.

Anyways, I'm so excited to show off the Easter mantle. I decided as I was pulling it all out and putting it together that an Egg Hunt would be my theme, so without any further ado here's my mantle!

Easter Tablescape

March 19, 2010 5 Comments
So I tried, really tried not to post again, but I am just so excited about sharing my Easter table decor! I cheat with my flower arrangement. I bought this thing called the Floral Design and the Floral Seven at the Maymont Flower Show several years ago and it is a life-saver! I cannot put together a floral arrangment to save my life, so after owning the floral arranger for a year, I then bought their book. I have tweaked some of  the designs to my liking, but for the most part I really like what they've done.

Should have been simple....

March 07, 2010 1 Comments
I am the first to admit that if I see something I like then I will probably copy it, and when I saw these cute Pottery Barn knock-offs at the Haverford House, then I knew that these would make a lovely addition to my Easter tablescape. I downloaded some images from The Graphics Fairy and then printed them out at 5" tall.

I figured that this would be a simple project that Dev and I could do together. Obviously, a 4 year-old would not be able to do the cutting or the gluing with any degree of accuracy, but I thought the glitter part would be up his alley. Ha! Silly Mommy you cannot compete with Mario, Yoshi and the lure of all his other toys. Sigh....At least Steve kept me company and helped me with my craft. I did end up doing most of the craft myself but more on that later.
