More Green...Are You Serious?




I've gone green. Before you give up on me and totally think this little ole Lady that lives in the Stone House has completely 'lost it' please hear me out...This has been relaxing for me to find so many items with the main theme being the color green. AND I need simplistic fun that's relaxing. No need to read a bunch of words today. This post is green. Just have fun looking at the pictures. An ah haa moment. ~deanna~

I do not think I have ever seen so many green things put together in one place, your blog!Even Kermit is here....ha ha! I am intrigued by the lawn mower powered by a bicycle though. Only 5 more days til St. Patrick's Day....are you descended from the Irish?

I loved the green kitchen. But the lady covered in green leaves just reminds me of the "leaf bugs" from Horton Hears A WHO!

Love ya!

Hey D.... I'm seeing I like green a lot more than I thought I did. Forest Green and Pine Green were a couple of my favorite crayola crayons. I love spring when the green starts to appear almost over night, with the flowers shooting up and the trees starting to bud. I figure God must like it too since it is so closely tied to "new life".

Then I think of the gemstones Peridot, Emerald, Jade...to mention a few. All great colors (especially when worn by you!)

And I have grown to really love the subtle shade of green used on our house. Especially during spring. It looks so peaceful and inviting.

Remember the green dining room in that mansion in Iowa?

Thanks for sharing all the pictures of things that are green. Very artistic.

My goodness! How DID you come up with all those green things? I loved looking at them- so many shades and hues. And that one emerald and diamond ring....Oooooohhhhh! I love green and have some shade of it in every room in my house.

What a neat post! Thanks for sharing.

It was during finding these pictures that it soaked in...yes, I do like some green in my world.

Kathy, so glad you saw Kermit! He smiled at you. I think I have a small amount of Irish in me, some Scotish, lots of German. That's a combination!!!

Beauty, Horton is such a hoo ...t!

Artist, I do remember that gorgeous diningroom and the color has stayed with me. I luvd the wood on the walls. Maybe we ought to copy this? What 'cha think? Plez Deanna make up your mind.

Hi Joyce! OOH AHH. I agree about the ring. Thought it was very pretty. The internet was my guide for the pics.

May you all have a great March and remember to wear some green so you don't get pinched on the 17th.

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."

As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

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
