What 'Cha Gonna Do With That?
What 'cha gonna do with that? Put food on it!!! And we did.
Dear Friend,
It's like a BLIZZARD outside. The wind is blowing and the snow is flying. I'm gonna go look out the front door and see what's going on...in the out of doors from the inside. A good BLIZZARD would be welcomed as I stay inside where it's about 73 degrees.
These Dollar Tree dishes were 'over the top' affordable. Next year I hope to add to them. White with red is fairly easy to match from here, there, and everywhere. Need to get glasses with snowflakes on them to go with the dishes or red and white stemware would be mighty handsome.
So what did I do with these??? 'Life Just Got A Little Easier' when I sat them on a deep red tablecloth and called it good. We used them for our CASUAL Dinner Table Christmas Day. I have placed them in a plastic box with lid and put them away til next time. Now, if I can just find my snowmen and polar bears...I'll be able to do a classy January Tablescape. Brrrrr it's cold here.
Happy New Year You 'all!
I have just about come up with my New Year Resolutions. Post to follow.
Luv ya,
~Deanna~

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
SO
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

Hello Deanna darling, I love the photos of your lovely cottage covered with snow...a blizzard at your place, freezing temperatures all world the world and they talk about global warming.... The dishes are such delight, I have a set of water glasses that are red and will look great with your dishes, or may be your dishes will look great with my glasses!! I do hope you had a wonderful time ringing in the New Year and that 2010 turns out to be the best year of your life, followed by many more. Thanks for all your visits and sweet comments; you are a dear friend...a true treasure.
Love & Hugs

Brrr...a blizzard! Well it's not much better here as everyone is hovering around the weather channel to find out if we will get some of the white stuff in the way of flurries tomorrow. Of course, it's sunny and in the 40's right now so I sincerely doubt it but then again one never knows:). Granted we won't have a blizzard but a few flurries will prbably shut the town down for a few hours-lol. Your dishes are great! Very festive and perfect to serve on during a blizzard!
Blessings and stay warm,
Kim
