How do you like my new praire swags?carterandleedesigns.com I wasn't real pleased with my last curtains. I have wanted prairie swags for soooo long. These are custom made in Lancaster Pa. They are black and tan checked, they are really made well.

Please check out this new magazine A Primitive Place. I am excited. I can't wait to receive mine!!www.aprimitiveplace.org/
I like to plant flowers in old country items. My first flowers of the season, some Pansies in an old Coal Bucket, I will have more pictures later as the weather gets warmer!!
I have added a few new pictures today of some new items. I have put up some new curtains for Spring. I love the ones in the Dining Room esp. Now for my LR I would prefer the Prairie Swags, (maybe one day, but they are toooo expensive for me.) What do you think of my LR swags? I went with black since I have red walls,it is hard to tell by the picture but the swags have a small cream and black print in the pattern. Also I have a new Bag Holder Doll, made by another bloggger," The Olde Country Cupboard", love her. And some prim filler bowl ornies in am enamel pan. And if you scroll down to the bottom of my blog a new print by Billy Jacobs.

I haven't had much time to blog lately. But my relaxation is reading other blogs. I have a prayer request for my fellow bloggers. My daughter Stephanie is Type 1 diabetic. She has battled painful diabetic neuropathy for the past year. Her pain is manageable most of the time now, but it has effected her digestive system so bad. She gets so sick in the eve. with diarrhea and vomiting. As a mother it rips my heart apart to watch your child struggle with an illness. Pray for her healing and for the Dr. to have wisdom for the correct treatments for her.

The first day of Spring, awesome weather here in the Shenandoah Valley. My BF Shelia and I went to Lancaster, Pa. last Sun. for my B'day. Look on my blog for some pictures. I have one to put on now! I will call it "Clothes Line"
According to my birth cert. I am living somewhere between estrogen and death, or, as someone said, between menopause and LARGE PRINT! But I don't have to act my age because, thank God, I've discovered a wonderful antiaging remedy. If fact, it's been promoted since biblical times as a cure for wide variety of problems. What is it? Laughter.(words of wisdom by Barbara Johnson).
I am so proud of my Spring Shower Curtain and matching tissue box. I bought these after Christmas from "Tender Heart Treasures". I didn't know if they would match my decor or be country enough. But for $2.90 for both, I couldn't pass them up. And if I like something it doesn't even matter if it matches or not. I make up my own rules. He He And they match perfect, so cheerful and Springy!!!!! Scroll down to look at the picture.
I made a new slideshow of some pictures that my husband and I took on one of our week-end drives in the country in West Virginia, so peaceful and tranquil! They make me feel like I am going back in time.
Scroll down to check out the pictures of my favorite things. Also just received a letter that "Gooseberry Patch" is putting one of my recipes in their Christmas cookbook for this year. This will be my forth recipe published, YeepEE!!! I'm shooting for at least 5.

It is hard to believe I have had my blog for 10 years. I am married to my sweetheart Ronnie for 40 years now. I have a son and daughter, a wonderful son in law and 4 wonderful grandchildren. I work two jobs. I am a full time school nurse at a wonderful country school and a part time hairdresser. I love all types of crafting. I love making primitive prairie bonnets, dolls, love wool applique, making wreaths and cross stitching.
