welcome to sheazzie loo's


Welcome to Sheazzie Loo's! It's a beautiful store in the town of Fairport. I teamed up with the owner, Mary, and is now selling my creations!! I am so excited to have my things in her wonderful store. Mary takes old furniture, paints and distresses it, and they are masterpieces! Just take a look around...


By the front counter, some of my handmade tags are displayed in the drawers. I just love how she displays items.


If my husband and I ever re-do our bedroom, I would love to get this matching set.


The "black and white room" as she calls it, wonderful French inspired things. Love the color of the walls!


Another shot of the dresser set. She doesn't have much Christmas decorations, just beautiful feather trees around the shop. Every time I go in, things are rearranged, keeping things fresh looking.


Picture of the front counter. See my pink feather wreath and photo cards?!? Yay!




Another pic of the "black and white room", see my shabby wreath? Yay again!




This is one of her newest creations, a antique dresser, she painted it and distressed it, just beautiful! Love the detailing! Another one of my photographs displayed! Do you see that pink wire dress form? Love it!

If your in the area, it is a must see! All kinds of pretty and shabby chic looking things!



enjoy!

granger homestead


Last Friday my Mother and I traveled to local town for a Artisan craft show. The shows entrance fee's benefited the Granger Homestead. It 's a beautiful old mansion built in the early 1800's. Just look at this house!

The craft show took place in front of the mansion in a huge white tent. It was filled with many many vendors who were all so talented. There was painter there that many years ago my parents bought her beautiful paintings and I have always loved them through out the years, so when I saw her I knew I had to get one of her works of art. She even remembered me when I visited her studio almost 15 years ago! Make sure you check out her website and her painting "Annie's Dream".



The mansion was decorated in Christmas decor. Inside the house, there was the Festival of the trees. Many different decorated Christmas trees done up in Patriotic, Victorian, etc themes. Usually the homestead is a museum and attracts around 15,000 people a year.



Windows were decorated with Christmas wreath. Gorgeous fall leaves provided a backdrop.



There was even horse buggie rides for kids and their parents. Even though it was a beautiful sight, wouldn't it even be better with snow?? :)






After visiting the homestead we went into town to do some shopping. We even went to Home Goods. I've heard so much about this store, it was so much fun! I found some goodies that I will share with you soon!

Thanks for going along with me on my field trip! :)

a trip to the farm market



Oh do I love this time of year, the aromas, the fruits and the sights. Today I went to my local farm market to pick up some fresh apples and cider. Two of my favorite things.



I took my camera along to take some snaps of the gourds and pumpkins. I took a similar picture last year as my Thanksgiving card to my family. I'll have to pick out one of the many I took this year. :)
Enjoy the colors...



Baskets of warty gourds.



Large warty gourds and pumpkins have so much character.



Rows and rows of pumpkins, I picked out mine, ready to be carved.

Have a great weekend!!

More shabby wreaths added to my etsy shop in other colors.

out shopping for flowers




I went out to my local garden store to purchase some blooms for my flower boxes and for my gardens. There was SO much to choose from, I had a hard time deciding on what kinds! Just look at the hanging baskets, they were AMAZING!










Here's more of the hanging baskets, they were everywhere!



Look at all the shades of green! Wouldn't it look great with flower boxes filled just with these shades of green??

Here's some of the flowers I went home with, I kept it old school with geraniums, marigolds, and some other bright filler flowers.

Stay tuned to see how my flower boxes turned out!!
