~~Old Prints~~

I bought these prints at an estate sale a couple of weeks ago and haven't had the chance to get them framed and hung yet..$10.00 for the three of them I didn't think was to bad of a deal..They originally were $15.oo each..for the couple and for the set of the man and woman...The print of the couple is on canvas and on a wooden frame...I think I am just going to leave it as is...













Thanks for stopping by for a visit..and the nice comments ...
Have a great day..

~Summer Kitchen-Drop leaf table~


Before I get the day started I wanted to share some pictures of my Summer Kitchen that I've been working on this past week...As I said in a previous post I went shopping in my garage and brought out a drop leaf table with four black vinyl chairs along with the captains chair..
This is the outcome of working so hard this week to get it finished..

I took out my oval Oak table and chair set and replaced it with the drop leaf table with four chairs....I also moved my Hoosier cabinet around to the Stone wall and replaced it with the black cupboard....Put back the corner cupboard and added my strainers to the shelves...
I've decided to take away the captains chair at the head of the table only because it makes it to crowed....The more I look at the pictures I like it alot better without the captains chair..opens it up more...
So there you are with the results of my tweaking this week...I promised I would share pictures of the outcome and I am pretty satisfied with the results of my makeover..
Thanks for stopping by this beautiful Saturday morning...
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend...

~~BIKES-N-GERANIUMS~~


Hello all prim friends...
Its a gorgeous day here in Central Pa....82 degrees and beautiful sunshine...
I went this afternoon to our local garden center and bought geraniums for in my baskets for on my bicycles for summer....I was going to get all red but I decided to get acouple of white to mix in with the red and I'm glad I did...It looks so much better with alittle white amongst the red...
I like how the red pops against the white of the bike...Nothing like having neighbors driving by and stopping to look at the old bicycles madeover for summer..















So this is all for now...thanks for stopping by and wishing everyone a wonderful weekend..

~~Shopping in my garage~~

Happy Thursday all prim friends... I hope all is well with everyone...I can't believe its been a week since I last posted anything...I've just been really busy cleaning and getting the yard work done while we have warm days....It's been raining here the past three days and I've been taking advantage of it to get things done inside our home....I've been looking for something to put our tv on out in our sunroom and I came across this old trunk in the garage so I thought I would stack another trunk on top of this one and then set the tv on it...

I've been working on my Summer Kitchen...changing my Hoosier Cabinet around and taking out the oval kitchen table and chair set...That's where I went shopping in my garage came from....I brought out an old drop leaf table and four of the black vinyl cushion chairs out of the garage and cleaned them and now there setting proudly in the Summer kitchen...This is a pic of one of the six  chairs that hubby bought years ago at an estate sale...Actually I forgot they were stored in the garage and when I went out to find something else I was looking for I seen these back in the corner...So out with the new and in with the old...



















That's two more things crossed off my to do list so I better get my butt in gear and get outside while the sun is shinning and get our lawn mowed...Time to get those weeds pulled  and lawn manacured for the weekend..
Thanks for stopping by for a visit....Come back soon for I'll be posting pics of the summer kitchen and the sunroom with the new tv stand...
Wishing everyone a wonderful day and take care to all..

~~HAPPY MOTHERS DAY~~

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts..
~Washington Irving~

Wishing every mother a very Happy Mothers Day..
