For the LOVE of SHOES

I adore that my son has a love for shoes like his mommy.
He especially loves boots.
Anytime he has the chance to get into my closet he grabs my husbands work boots and clunks around in them. He tried and tried to get my rain boots and then I remembered I had a pair of kids vintage ones tucked away in my stash of goodies.When I gave them to him, you would have thought he just received every toy in the toy store.
Well, tonight after he fell fast asleep, I did the nightly picking up of the tv room and this is what I found.
It melted my heart.
His favorite stuffie in his new shoes.
Can I get an awwww...

Ponies and Christmas

We took my son riding for the first time this weekend.
Lets just say he loves animals and calls ponies, cows...but when it was time to sit on the pony he couldn't get off of it fast enough. He started riding sidesaddle to try to get down.
Ironic since he is a cowboy for Halloween this year...
So, no asking for a pony from Santa, Drums it is!
Okay on to some more Christmas decor.
Super cute little tags that are super shabby chic french fun.
Great for table setting or ornaments!

Everything here is available in my shop!

Christmas Stockings...HUH????

This is my take on a christmas stocking.
Last year I decided to go with something different for our stockings.
And it just rolled over to me making them for the shop.
They hold a heck of a lot more....that is always better for Santa to fill them with our wishlist goodies ;)Made from all vintage fabrics and lace, doilies, grain sack selvage and french goodness.
No mantel is complete without one hanging in your french shabby home this season.
Will be available in the shop soon.
Be sure to sign up for twitter to get first dibs :)

Back to working in the house today.
Lots of new listings coming your way for the holidays! If you need something one of a kind for a shabby chic lover just let me know :)

Juggling Life

This weekend is a juggling act.
Between the shop, art shows, gala's and family time, I can barely breathe.
When life hits, it hits at once.
But I hope to have news for all soon on some amazing opportunities that have come my way.
For now, I am off to get a slice of lemon cake and breathe......

Sewing Bliss

I have been sewing and crocheting all day :)
This is a sweet day, haven't even left the house yet...but I need a sugar fix and that will have to be addressed shortly.
What are you up to?
