Aren't these little hotdog mummies so cute? So easy to make. Just take pillsbury crescent roll dough, lay entire sheet flat while pressing all perforated seams closed. Cut into narrow strips using a pizza cutter and wrap around the length of the hotdog leaving an open space for the face and bake. The cute little eyes are simply tasty dots of mustard.</div>

A vintage style Wooden Ruler Growth Chart I made for my Grandaughter, Madison.<br />
<br />
When my kids were growing up, we marked many a wall with their heights...such a joy to see how much taller they were month to month. Sad part was they were left at the various houses we moved from...all so someone else could probably paint over them.<br />
<br />
This is the perfect solution...hang it up and take it with you. Always yours to reflect and cherish.<br />

So on Saturday morning my husband took a ride with me to check it out. I've been wanting a bench for my dining room it seems - forever. When we got there - the one we specifically went to see was all spindles and totally uncomfortable to sit on. Discouraged, we toured the rest of the shop. Then...tucked in a little hallway I saw it. A gorgeous little church pew just waiting to be discovered.</div><br />

We lifted it into the Jeep and tied it down. I couldn't wait to get home and get started!

Last thing I remember, I was getting ready to be a Grandmother and here it is 14 months later! Lot's has happened in that time, my subway signs are doing fabulous on Etsy and I've been busy with everything EXCEPT my home. <br />
<br />
I recently came across a house for sale - completely by chance. It was actually a random email from my local Facebook Marketplace. Well I jumped right in the car and headed over to the real estate agents office and within 20 minutes I was walking through the door of who I would later come to find out was blogger "Just Beachy" Chris Kaufmann's perfect lil' abode.<br />
<br />
To say it was love at first sight would be an understatement! Here are some photos for you to drool over...<br />

I had no idea that this was her home, I never knew the owner was a blogger it was just a fluke...and so inspiring. I did go back a second time with my husband and he actually loved it too. We have debated, listed the pros and the cons and have decided to stay put and transform our home. After all, Chris's home was a newer build and I think I read on her blog somewhere that "beach living is a state of mind".<br />
<br />
So I am back!<br />
I WILL change my space to reflect the cottage charm I have loved for so long and... <br />
I WILL be inspired by all the talented women in blogland. Looking forward to catching up on all I have missed.<br />
<br />
My first project will be to <span style="background-color: yellow;">make over an awesome little church pew I recently purchased at an antique store in Utica (pictures coming up).</span><br />
<br />
<br />
By the way...here is a picture of my beautiful Granddaughter, Madison...my sunshine and joy.<br />
