It's been a fantastic ride!





I appreciate your patience in waiting for the reveal of winners. It allowed me the time to gather and invite all the girlfriends over to enter my Parisian Give Away. So lets proceed with the drawing of two winners.
Paw picked by my beautiful assistant Angel.



I present the box with the eligible candidates.



Angel reaches in for the winners




My kitty is Content with her selections, now hands me the names to make the announcement. The winner to receive the Girlfriend (eco tote) with all 25 sweet surprises, is.........A Bite of Country Cupcakes !
The winner receiving the Eiffel tower lamp is.........Decor To Adore!
Girls, email me your addresses so I can get your winnings into the mail.

That brings us to the honorary winners. Hmmmm, what? I've had a few visiting BLOGGERS that have given me the privilege of placing my blog (link) unconditionally on their blog rolls. This gracious act has touched me deeply. I would like to send you a Girlfriend Eco Tote. You sweet girls know who you are, so please contact me too with your info, so I can send you this gift of my appreciation.
Thanks to everyone for your participation in my first Give Away. I promise this is only the beginning of future sweet surprises.



I thought you'd like to see what happened after the photo shoot. Once my kitty came down from the catnip high.

Angel managed to untie her bow, depositing her royal attire on the backyard lawn, faster than you could say Houdini, walking regally back into the house with her royal attitude still intact.




I've listed the Girlfriends Eco Tote in my Boutique. You can find the link in the top right column.

Paper and plastic bags will soon be obsolete in our local stores. Have you've notice most grocers are selling canvas bags? I would like to support these efforts. I've been given an opportunity to provide (from Europe) an eco friendly shopping bag alternative. The price point is between $25-$35USD. Please watch this video and leave your opinions and comments. I need your feedback to see if there's enough interest to pursue this venture.

Congratulations to all the winners. Lucky girls!!

Angel looked so pretty with her bow. I don't know how you got her to sit still that long. I tried putting red bows on Anna and Bailey for Christmas pictures. I finally got some but the ribbons didn't look too neat.

Falling into Fall........

October has brought a definite chill to the air, putting me in a decorating mood. As you've come to know from visiting my blog, I love exploring new ideas for taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary. Which I accomplish through the inspiration provided by visiting your lovely blogs. Nothing says "FALL" like these... PUMPKINS! The versatility of pumpkins in any fall decor is endless. I've only got one problem... sometimes the pumpkins can start to look a little sad before the seasons end. (Natalie Maynor's photo) Violet Skiles has the perfect solution! Pumpkin Toppers Flowers, leaves, pearls, frame charm .....what more could you ask for? Reusable, perhaps? Yes they are! Violet has a beautifully illustrated tutorial at her blog for creating your own Pumpkin Topper . Please stroll on over for a visit. She's just as charming as her art! **************************************************** T...

She knows we have to say goodbye....

Angel laid on my chest and filled my face with kitty kisses. Trying to give me enough of them to ease my pain and hopefully carry me through in her absence. Our time is fleeting. How I wished I could turn back the clock. When I look at her I can't convey to her the the love I have, or how great this loss is to me. Especially how I'll miss her everyday. Angel always loved blogging, more so putting in her opinion. She has been my constant companion through my darkest hours and has brought my greatest delights for 16 years. As my dear friend said to me..."they're the ones we whisper our greatest fears to." "We have a big favor to ask of you." My circle of family and friends is very tiny here, so finding solace can be distant. This is where I'm reaching out to you. I know you understand with all your heart what these furry companions mean to us. I would like to compile a scrapbook with all your comments. Whether your a pet owner or just a lover...

Yes Virginia, Christmas has come early!

It's finally happened! My camera has closed it's shutter for the last time. No need for tears... CAUSE I'M JUMPIN' FOR JOY! "Get your boots on Virginia, were goin' camera shopin'." Although my camera isn't as old as the one pictured here...it certainly felt like it at times, especially without a macro option (that word has become music to my ears). It's quite possible I've paid the equivalent of two new cameras with all the batteries purchased over the course of time. For any of you that have stock in Duracell batteries..."you're welcome." If I were to leave the selection of my new camera up to my family... I've no doubt this is what they'd pick out. "Holy macro " just think what I could capture in a single shot... Wow, that would be one hard flash dot to shake from your retinas. I'd be the envy of every paparazzi in Hollywood. Due to the demise of my camera... I wasn't able to bring you all my ...
