Feature Friday #3

I've been M.I.A.  I have finally decided to take on a big project!  Something I've wanted to do for a few months now.  Something I thought about before I started this little blog.  I will be setting up a little online shop.



 A little hint...?  It's wordy! For now - here we go... IT'S FRIDAY!Each Friday I will randomly pick 2 followers from my sidebar and do a feature on you - with a link to your blog. It's my way of thanking those who follow my blog and spreading the love. FEATURE FRIDAY #3 

Here is Ange!  She was my very first follower!!!  I remember seeing her and thinking wow... someone is interested enough to follow me.  For anyone who has not yet met Ange your in for a treat.  She is so warm and generous.  You have to stop by Australia and see her at Chair Up.

Live.Laugh.Make Something is home to Mary Beth.  She always has something going on.  She showcases some excellent projects with a perfect dose of humour.  She also has an Etsy Shop.




 

Happy Mother's Day

Here is my favourite photo from 1964.
 

It's of my Mom and Dad and me. 

Everything seemed so regal back then, everyone dressed so elegant for everyday.  My daughter looks at this picture and she can't get over how her Nana just had a baby and looked so slim and she gets a kick out of her wearing pearls...around the house!  She was only 19 in this picture.   Me - I think my Dad looks so handsome.  I love the hair flip.

Mother's Day next year, we will be celebrating with 4 generations in our family.

Happy Mother's Day!

Hop over to Lara's place at Fresh + Simple  She loves thrifting and is in the process of  decorating her country duplex in the beachy coastal style we all love and guess what?  She's a white paint addict!  Did I happen to mention - the girl has some mad photo skills.  Thanks for following Lara.

Your gonna love Deb - a fellow Canadian girl at Cappuccino Cottage who's as sweet as can be. When she stops for a visit it's like having your best friend over for coffee.  She's transforming her lakeside cottage in British Columbia with her love of all things vintage, chippy and white.  Stop by and tell her I said hi.  Thanks Deb
