Beloved, hope you had a great week-end and are off to a good start for this week. This past week-end I took a quick road trip with my Daughter (Beauty) and a Grand to an out of state Baby Shower where one of my sweet pregnant daughter-in-laws lives. We had a great time! Pics to follow sometime in the near future.Visited with my tall son, daughter-in-law (Shell), 7 year old Grand and 2 year old Grand. We spent the night, visited, played and ate some of Shell's delicious Taco Soup. I wish I had taken a picture and shared with you. It is delicious and nutritious.
For the time being, here are some more pics of summer treasures. The Domestic Diva has some more treasures to showcase. I just luv these thrifty finds. When a watch cost a dollar, a piece of cut glass 75 cents, pretty doilies 75 cents, a milk glass cup/saucer that matches some dishes I already have cost a dollar, etc. my heart soars and it makes my day! The silver napkin ring holders were from Dillards still packaged and had not been used. Though there's no lid for the gold sugar bowl, it's so pretty and I thought I could put some small decorative artificial flowers in this for a nic-nac, only cost a quarter.
My experience on the thrift trail cost around $15.00. What is that, about 3 cups of fancy coffee?
I know that these are just things, but let's face it...it takes things to fill a home. Hallelujah! I have a home. I use my treasures, pass them around, give away, trade and display.
God Bless you. May your home be a place that you enjoy.
Ahhhhhh...Happy Heart~Happy Home~Happy Haven,
Deanna

Hi Deanna! Oh, look at those gorgeous crocheted doilies! You've found quite a few wonderful things!
Be a sweetie,

That is what I do with some of my treasures. The woman who helps me clean my house,she does the cleaning, I do the standing up things, has a booth at one of the thrift shops that she donates all the money to her church. I give her my empty candle jars, etc and she makes and sells candles and other things. There are so many ways to contribute to others with out even leaving home. I guess you have to be on the lookout.
So glad you had a nice get together with the shower. They are always fun and some good munchies too. My daughter has her maiden name back now and is ready for a totally new start. Thanks for all your support. I told her I pray every day for her and when she asked me what I prayed for, I told I just pray God will give her the grace to make good choices. She agreed that was a good prayer.
