STILL hangin' around...

Where to begin, where to begin...

My "wall of random" now shows off some of my faveohright sparkles from a few of my faveohright people! And yes, I am incredibly spoiled.

From the left (that was said in my most "booming" announcer voice.) we have some sparkles and numbers that I walked off with in Warrenton created by one of my most talented neighbors, Tricia aka: Vintage Bliss:

Find her Etsy shop here... and you should DEFINITELY go visit her blog so you can see what she's been up to!!

Then there is my Spoonin' necklace that I won and Mrs. Susie Q customized just for lil' ol' me!

Spoonin' (shop here)  facebook (here)
you KNOW duct tape rules - and there is a knife piece behind the spoon about duct tape!
and yes. that is my Max Steiner cinder block necklace tucked in. ;-D

Then there is my Happy Daisy necklace that Leslie aka: the Retreauxgirl (who spoils me rotten and will be my guest again in the spring at Warrenton! Yee-HA!) sent me:

Leslie's Etsy shop here and her TOTALLY fun facebook page is here.

Sometimes I come un-hinged, and luckily for me Kim aka: "The Hillbilly" totally appreciates that about me and sent me this in a box of absurdly sensational great stuff...

I love her mix of rust and sparkles and pearls... oh lala!

NEXT up: we have the lovely Lulu Kellog's creation - how in the world did she know that this is the only shade of blue I'll wear?!

Lulu's Etsy is here and SHE will be here at Warrenton in the spring!!! I'm so excited - I get to meet her!!!

If you ever hear or read me saying: "Hey! Watch THIS! I'm running with scissors!!!" It's because I'm wearing this necklace from Ann aka: Duct Tape and Denim:

Ann's Etsy is here and her facebook page is here.

This next one makes my heart melt like my heart melts when I find THE perfect pair of shoes that I've been searching high and low for:

The definition of Namaste (pronounced na, ma, stay) is both a physical gesture and a spoken spiritual salutation, which is the recognition of the divine spirit (or soul) in another by the divine spirit in you.

It was a Christmas present ordered for me and created by NONE other than Mrs. Susie Q aka: Spoonin' Vintage Spoon Jewelry (did you know she does custom orders? She does!). As was this one:

because NOTHING says "I Love You" more than a whole bunch of name callin'.

If you come over this week-end we can play dress-up using the Whiting Davis bags (the creamy white one was my Grandmothers!) and all of the sparkles! Like Mama Debinator says: "don't exercise, ACCESSORIZE!" We can wear them all at once! Are you on your way yet?

Oh OH!! Before you head this direction be sure and stop by Mama Debinator's (here) and sign up to win the Spoonin' necklace she is showing off!

Customized just for HER honoring all of her "squirrel" moments... you will DEFINITELY want to throw your acorn in the squirrel tree for this one!

comin' to you LIVE from a single-wide where I'm wearing the "Namaste" today... but wardrobe changes happen often. Hmmm.... maybe the Happy Daisy this evening? hee-hee

hangin' around...

One of the things I found in the disaster area storage room was a candle holder that "the Mama" had given me a few years ago when my house had pink mixed in with the red.

Turns out there are only certain things that I like in pink. I ADORE the candle holder... happy daisies and zinnias... metal AWEsomeness... so I turned the pink red 'cause I'm all "givemethespraypaintNOW" cool like that.

Then, I have a wall in my bedroom that is slowly but surely getting re-vamped...

I call it my "wall of random" 'cause there's not a stinkin' thing on that wall that makes sense - but it works for me. And it's really kinda fun to say that I have a "wall of random".

NOW I have wall hooks. Several of them. And... I can't burn the house down if I'm not using this as intended.

The pocketbooks aren't staying long 'cause I have some treasures to hang instead... Just wait! You'll be green-metalleaves with ENVY! I'll be back...

the ugly truth.

WARNING: This is not a pretty post. BE PREPARED!!!

I spent the first days of 2012 cleaning out my storage room. You know... the room in every house that becomes the hub/stashing place/floor-to-ceiling pile-up for all things... and I mean - ALL things.

I cleaned... I cleaned some more...

and... I have more to clean. Believe it or not, these are NOT the "before" pictures... nor are they the "in-the-middle-of" pictures...

these are the "as it stands right now" pictures after three days of moving stuff, moving more stuff, getting rid of stuff, burn pile stuff... I forgot I had carpet in there. I even thought I had lost my cat in there and was skeert he wouldn't come out alive.

And no, I REALLY can't believe I'm showing you these pictures. But... *shrug*... I'm a storage room disaster. That is the ugly truth. Even worse? This isn't even the whole room...

comin' to you LIVE from a single-wide where I would think I was a hoarder if I didn't actually USE this stuff and/or have the ability to get rid of it. *giggle* What did you do for your New Year's week-end? Aren't you glad you weren't in my hood? I woulda put you to work. Oh, wait! I still can!!! What time should I be expecting you? hee-hee

2012

yes... I have duct tape in my 2012 planner... what better way to start the year?!

Have I told you lately how much I adore and appreciate each and every one of you that comes to visit my single-wide?

Let me start this year by telling you how much I adore and appreciate each and every one of you that comes to visit my single-wide. I already think you are absurdly sensational... just keep being you in 2012!

Happy Happy New Year!!!

pearfect!

I needed a quick little wedding shower gift sew I cleared off the mountainous pile of JUNK cool stuff from around my sewing machine and got bizzy cookin' up some dish towels.

Fun, right? Floral for her, stripes for him... the perfect pearing for the perfect pear.

comin' to you LIVE from a single-wide where I'm in "ZappHallspringshowisonly124daysaway" mode (thank you Retreauxgirl for keeping me in time-line!) and these just might come in to season there... wanna pear? hee-hee

whew!

How was your Christmas week-end?! Did you see Santy Claus? Hang out with friends and family?

Did you eat toooooooooo much?

comin' to you LIVE from a single-wide where I ate way twotoooo many pieces of pecan pie. But luckily for me I have new fluffy jammy pants with a stretchy waistband. Luckily for my surrounding community I saw fit to change out of the fluffy jammies (under much duress) when I had to come back to work today. My New Year's resolution is gonna be:
buy more stretchy fluffy jammy pants.



What - you SERIOUSLY thought I would say, "eat less pecan pie?" ha!!!

no.
