Chandelier Love/Book Club

This amazing Chandelier was given to me by my beautiful neighbour friend.

Then my hubby and her set it up when I was out one afternoon.

I was able to use it for my book club in September.

                                             I covered it with 30 candles and it was lovely.

We had the event catered for a special girls night.
I went with a super group of local ladies who knocked our socks off with authentic Ethiopian cuisine.

Complete with dessert and honeyed wine.

We did have a slight fire situation, and it left the clothes burned and a singe mark on my table.

If you ever get the chance to read Cutting for STone by Abraham Verghese I highly recommend it.
And if you get a chance to be in a book club I think you couldn't do yourself anything better.
This group of ladies are the most amazing women I know and I am eternally grateful for each one of them.

DeeKayTee Farm Tour Fun

I love farms.

I live on my manageable sized 8 acre farm and that is enough for me.

I marvel at family owned, run through generations, farms of mass productions.

I respect the amount of love and labour involved.

Farming isn't for the faint of heart and this farm is so beautiful and run so nicely, you can see their passion for it in ever corner, nook and cranny.

And I finally got to meet the fabulous Marieke.

Thank you for sharing your splendor with us.

A Bunch Of Stuff

A quick craft the other day that caches the sun and relects the light so beautifully onto the table. K had such a great time making this.



Two tables that I found for a buck each and thought would make a great afternoon craft session of painting or decopage.....one day.

Another one of my little quirks is vintage wooden hangers. I love em.

I saw this on crafty crow a while back and thought it was really fitting or my husband.

It was easy to do as I glued mine and the funnest part was going to the beach for the wood.

Art in the park doing tie dying. Always a hit with the kids.

Great old logging equiptment.

I have a deep love for all things antique.

I have been looking for a washing board for some time and was so excited wehn I found this for half price in a quiant little gem of an antique store in Chemanius.

I just have to somehow convince my husband to attatched it to the bathroom wall.
