lovely lace



When ever I'm at a sale or antique store I am always on the lookout for lace and trims. This past weekend I hit the mother load of vintage lace. At a local vintage craft store they were selling BAGS of pretty lace. And the ones I got were not bits and pieces, they were yards and yards of each. YUM!


Just look at some of my favorites!!




I have a very hard time saying no....




Beautiful whites and colored lace.


I will be adding vintage lace and trim bundles to my Boutique and Etsy store!!

our coco


I want to introduce you all to my little princess. Here and there I've talked about her, but she is a big part of my husband and mine life at home, that I thought I would show you more of our puppy.




Coco at 4 weeks.

We got her when she was 2 months old, so little and cute, we knew she was the one for us. I wanted a cute name for our new girl, after thinking and thinking of a name, I came up with Coco after Coco Chanel, the designer.



Almost two years later she keeps us entertained, going after animals on t.v. and just by cuddling with us. But she still has her puppy energy and puppy characteristics by getting into the garbage among other things. She's only 8 pounds but she can jump about 4 1/2 foot high.

She always cracks us up and we love her so much, so I'm sure you'll be seeing more of her!

Coco Sign

I made this little sign to go above Coco's food and water dishes. The spot above looked a little bare, so I thought to make a little something for a spot where she spends some time at.




I used acrylic paint, puffy paint, German glass glitter, crepe paper and wooden letters.
I think she'll like her little sign, hopefully not too much and eat it! :)
