Went Junkin'
Dear Ones,Thank you for stopping by and visiting my blog.
Had some free time today, so I went JUNKIN'. Had such fun. Wish we could have had a cup of coffee and visited today about "the best junk we ever did buy."
Went to a near by thrift shoppe that has a used-book section in it.Made it home with:*16 hard back books at $1.50 each from TIME LIFE The Art of Sewing circa 1974/75.
Carrying these to the car was like lifting weights. I'm sure I will feel it in my body tomorrow. No need for a membership to a Health Club when I can get away with this kind of exercise.
(Just think how much money I save. Do you feel the burn? No pain no gain!)
*A pressed glass punch tray for $14. Pictured above.
Twas beautiful. I just had to have it. Awe Martha Stewart eat your heart out!
(please know this about me...I have a sense of humor.)
I have several punch bowls with cups that this

Looked like new.
Machine washed it anyways.Play it safe and sound.

that plays "TRY TO REMEMBER" for $4.50.
* Eight miniature white with gold trim
OVEN TO TABLE TO TABLE COOKWARE glazed dishes
for 60 cents a piece.
Not only are these pretty, but a economical find.
What a day I had! Know that God led me to these bargains and stretched my money...
I had a great time looking and shopping in the Kansas Flinthills.
May your home be a haven that you minister God's love to your family in.
Til next time, don't forget to pray,
Deanna
P.S. and yes, I do take prayer request seriously!

DECORATING
I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."
John 3:7
“Marvel not that I said unto thee,
Ye must be born again.”
King James Version (KJV)
PSALM 118:17
I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.
By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding
it is established;
through
knowledge
its rooms are filled with rare
and beautiful treasures.
SALVATION
Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Acts 4:12 King James Version (KJV)
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
"HOME is a wonderful place to LIVE. No matter the size of the rooms, ones HOME is a place to call ones own. I so LOVE my HOME." ~Deanna~
PSALM 90:12

TEACH us
to number OUR days,
that we may apply our HEARTS

WISHES
NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
