It Wasn't A April Fools Joke::

        I've been working on a new blog banner. If you arrived here yesterday, this is what you saw.
        Today, I worked on the final blog banner. Funny how they are so, different.
       
      OK, which one do you like? Eeeny, Meany...I can't decide.
       Hope you are having a fantastic week.

Weep No More::

                               I never thought I would blog about a tree but, this one stopped me in my tracks on Friday afternoon. The owner laughed as I asked for permission to photograph it. " Go ahead isn't it beautiful?" she, exclaimed. The tree is a Weeping Japanese Cherry tree. I was so taken back, as I stood underneath it's beautiful limbs. Every flower was just perfect and oh, so pretty.
                   Hope you are having a great Monday! Another work week for me till, Easter break.
                   Thanks for all your sweet comments on the previous post. Yes, that's only a quarter of my milk glass collection. It keeps on growing like that tree :)

Hostess With The Mostess Event::

         For those who couldn't attend yesterday's event at HiHoHome in Gardiner, NY. Here is my vintage buffet set up using lots of white.
                Here's an idea using a vintage train case. Fill it up with your favorite liquors, glasses, lemon wedges, limes, linens, swizzle sticks. Easy for a picnic or buffet. My make shift bar will be sure to please. Cheers!
                            Bring the outside in. Sure enough, that's exactly what I did using this bird feeder. Added, some glasses and there you go.
                         On a budget? I used dried hydrangeas that I had on hand. Simple, yet still lovely.
                                   Kudos, to Heidi at HiHoHome Market.
                             We are all Hostesses with the Mostesses :)
                                                  Have a great Sunday!
                                                 Thanks for stopping by,
