Taking the Leap!

I couldn't resist when the hanging glass windows sold that separated my booth at Art Angels Lily Dily and the empty booth next to mine. It looked so awesome and my mind raced with what I could do with the two spaces together as MINE....so I finally made the leap and signed the agreement to take the empty space. My little booth was getting cramped and unorganized. Here is the before picture ~

This is my booth...before...it looks like a mess!

Awwwww...this is the empty potential space!

Oh hold back the excitement!! This is the two halves to become one!! And its all MINE! Baby steps from last October with first renting a shelf...then a small space, then to my current space, and now.......

Karen said I am famous now! Lol! Do you want my autograph?

Yesterday I took a lot of things out and took over the new space...added a couple of things ~ note hanging pot rack.
The space is so open and I am in love!!
Here is a teaser picture from yesterday...today I am moving in some small tables and such that I have been busy sanding, painting, sanding, waxing, did I say sanding? Oh now I need chalk paint....I will post the final outcome soon...see ya on the red carpet!!

Heres a picture of the new beginning of the new Lily Dily

This is a corner of Lily
Dily...Sue & Kathy's booth is behind mine!

This is the other side of my new booth...more stuff to be added today!!

And again another angle....

Here is the table I did last month opened up...new chairs and stools coming today...note the new bakers rack
I am so excited!!!

To add some more great things ~ my son and hopefully future daughter in law got a new great Golden puppy!
It is my fuzzy Grandson....for now the only one...his name is to be announced by this Saturday. I went over and saw him last night for a bit! He is adorable with extra large feet and very smart....love him!

He was playing with an ice cube....

He started to close his eyes...he is on shelf under their coffee table...but not for long!

Here he is with Mommy!!

Here he is with Dsddy and his duckie!!

He is so handsome!!!

And he is smart....knows how to play fetch already!!! Of course he is a Retriver, but just saying...

Well, have to load up the car with all my new stuff to add to my new booth...I am so excited for so many great things!
See ya! Thanks for looking!

Vacation Time ~ Soon to be Over

My vacation time is coming to a fast close. It did get better after the "yellow to silvery blue-lavender" hair. It is getting better with each shampoo. Last Friday night I joined my daughter, Jamie and my Mom Sue to have dinner with her honey's Mom, Debbie. Jamie's honey, Erik is a Marine and is up in North Carolina nursing his surgery he had on his knee last month....waiting to get out of the service, go to school and join the police academy. We are so proud and grateful for him!! Debbie is great and we had great conversation and laughs! She will be a wonderful MIL ??!! to Jamie. Here are some pictures:

Fun!!!

Saturday my son Jason & his sweetie Ashley took Me, my Mom Sue, & Jamie up to Wildwood near the Villages to meet her family. They have been dating over a year & a half, so it was past time. Her family are great!! I felt a "friend connection" the minute I met Ashley's Mom, Janice. She loves antiques and thrifting too. We all had a nice lunch with Ashley's sister & her two little boys and the rest of the two families to include Ashley's dad, Mike. Then we went to the Villages to the town that is based on Key West. We had a blast!! Here are some pictures:

Ashley & Jason
Perfect!!!

Mom Sue, Me, Ashley, & Jamie

Love the way they have the town decorated....lots of rustic looks!!!

Hope to be good long time friends and family!!

They have lots & lots of golf carts too....

Holy golf carts.....

This is a little boat trip we went on...it was fun!
