My First Blog

Hi Everyone,

Here is my very first post! My fingers are trembling. I am so excited to share with you who I am and what I have been doing. Yes, many of you already know that I have an Etsy shop which has brought me countless hours of fun, not to mention all of the lovely people I have met through selling my wares. So the "doing" is all about lovely vintage things that I have had for years or newly stumbled upon treasures that I carefully prepare for YOU at Etsy.

The "doing" is all about fixing up my home, finding time to be artistic and crafty, keeping up a long distance relationship with my boyfriend, loving the grand babies,  my three grown-up sons, their three adorable wives/fiance', maintaining a full-time, very demanding job, and oh, did I mention I am turning 50 this summer....

First thing on my "To Do" list:  I want to share with you as often as I can my newest decorating plans both inside and outside of my cottage. I'm a Virgo and therefore things change a lot! And there will be lots of stories to tell about my cottage. (I really need to be in the mood to tell you a story or shall I say... urban legend... of my humble abode). I want to share pictures of pretty old things, sweet babies, yum-yum good food, and let you get to know me.

So lets have some fun together. Lets do this little thing called blogging! I can't wait for a comment or two. Can I tell you a secret? I have been reading your blogs for about 4 months now and feel as though we are already friends. ...  There is something about people who love to decorate and have an eye for all things vintage.
