" Fall Projects I'm Working on"

Had so much fun making this headband this morning. I got a bunch of the straw hats at the junk store and then started embellishing from my stash.... I will be making more stay tuned:O} Starting decorating for Halloween. Inspiration " The Birds" movie " Sleeping mask I made for Breakfast Around the Clock Party at Barbs the other nite. What a blast that was. We all went in our pajamas. Loving these muted tones of gray... These my little pretties will be at the Apple Festival we are doing in Pine this week end Sept 25th and 26th . So come up for some fresh pine filled mountain air. "Loving the new Fall colors" This Hamper I found was painted very dark. Of course I had to Spay it white and embellish it. The roof tips back. Perfect for a little girls room...To hold dolls or laundry. These are darling frog boxes. Some of them have a surprise inside... Just found this hand made quilt. It was my inspiration for my fall bed display . " Look at this sweet chair , Great for a vanity . Table has carved checkers to go with it.... Every girl needs a night out once in a while... :O} XO Chrisy & Kramer

" Oh Bed! Oh Bed Oh delicious bed! That heaven on earth to the weary head" _ Thomas Hood

You don't need a ocean view to create the freshness of a seaside bedroom. I hope in while viewing this post you will look to your own bed and realize you have the power to transform your bedroom to convey peace & tranquility, with a theme that is truly your own...( hint ) Surround yourself with your favorite things...Your bed should feel like your slipping into a tub of warm water. It can change the entire way you feel about your bedroom and about sleep. Ahhh "Sweet Dreams" There's something about the Ocean that calls to all of us. Weather we live 20 yards away or 2,000 miles from it, we can't help but smile and feel relaxed at the thought of crashing waves and warm sand under our feet... I love the blues, buffs and creams in this vignette. With a robins egg blue palette with touches of lavender, the color of the horizon after the sun has melted into the sea.... Hugs Chrisy and Kramer Large assortment of Corsets and petticoats, but they are going fast and being nabbed up by the "Jailhouse Rodeo Girls" who will be in front of the shop on Aug. 16 for the starting of Rodeo Week.. HEY HAW!!!! The Elephants are here, love this sweet necklace... Some" Fall " arrivals ......... " So CUTE " Hippie dolls my sister Gena made to sell at shop...
