Small project, Yard Sale Haul, and Family dollar finds.

Good Afternoon, my friends! I hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday. I got up early this morning and went to the yard sales! I found a lot of stuff, nothing special!
I thought I would share my yard sale finds, a small project and dollar tree and Family dollar finds!! I had not posted anything new all week. So I thought I needed to share something with my friends!!
My creative juices have quit flowing. I have tried and tried to get in the mood to sew or craft and everything I touch something goes wrong and I get frustrated!
I think my body is tired and telling me take a break for awhile. Because the last thing I tried to sew , I started crying because I messed it up so badly.
It has been a touch few weeks for me physically and emotionally. But I will get through all this and soon feel like my old self again!!
I hope everyone enjoys my show and tell!





Small project!


I found this little box at the dollar tree! Of course I alter any box I see or have!







Inside of box!





Yard Sale Finds!




Brand new with tag. Fall purse for 2.00







Fall oven mitts and two place mats! These were 2:00. There are just two of us, so these work out perfectly for us.

Little lace box! 25 cents!! Of course I will have to alter it a little!






Red Heart Bowl. Originally from Ross! I paid 75 cents at a yard sale!






I found these three pumpkins at the Dollar tree! I love the earth tone colors they came in! 1.00 each!

    Yep...at times, it is a good idea to take a break..and just do next to nothing...but maybe read and relax.

    My husband starts his first round of radiation for prostate cancer on Tues...our lives will change now...for a good while...as he will be at this for five days a week... for 8 weeks.
    It is in the early stages..so we are confident that he will be fine...when all is said and done.,...IF they do the procedure CORRECTLY....so many medical errors anymore...and THAT is something I worry about too.

    Love, Rose

    Hi Susan!
    I always love hearing from you and checking out all your latest finds!

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been having a tough couple of weeks. I hope it gets better for you very quickly.

    I really loved seeing your white shabby chic room! Everything is sooo pretty! And I just LOVE that style!

    I also thought some beautiful ribbon would look great woven through that lacy basket? It would be a perfect addition to your shabby chic room.. *winks*....That's all the inspiration I have in ME my friend...So don't you feel badly about taking a break from being inspired. Inspiration strikes when you least expect it to. Vanna
