 A home school girl friend shared Wild Olive Tee's website with me earlier this fall. I just fell in love with the t-shirts and their way they give back!

This is my shirt above!

Here is the link to it

Give them some of your shopping time. I have a hunch you might fall in love like I did!

Happy on-line shopping!

Great Finds....Don't......

Don't......................

Touch the babies hands!!

I don't know how many times I have said that in my life time??

However I will tell you it's enough that if you took stock in it, you could send your family to Disney for a week all expenses paid on me!

And I am not the only nutty mother that thinks that as well.....

Look what I found!

Creative Corner: Unexpected Treasures!

Unexpected treasures have been in my path a lot lately. A few weeks ago I snuck out to our local, Marshalls or as my family calls it,"MARRRSHALLS!"   I am always go in there with an open mind and just see what jumps out at me that will spike some creativity. So with this noted I do not make these quick trips, sometimes they can turn into a solid hour of creativity. 

So what did my wondering eye come a upon. This amazing warm colored milk picture. Which was food friendly! I turned it into vase!  Now resting on my farm house coffee table.

Doesn't it just scream FALL!! I love, love,love it!! I am so tickled we are just weeks away from this amazing season!! 

The carnations which have a wonderful smell to them I got at my local Giant. I think they have the best flowers! Out side the local flower market in my home town in OHIO!! GOOO BUCKS!

Well the creativity did not stop there! 

Last night I was at Target doing my every week house hold goods shopping and what did my eye spy this time??

This over sized canning jar. Oh, how the ideas started running into my mind almost as fast a waterfall on a rainy day! Well I think you know what my first idea was....

Another great floral find at Giant. I just love how tall it stands. Even Southern Man complemented me. He is a wonderful floral giver, just not one who notices. I think because we have been married so long and I have always filled our home with flowers he has grown a custom to them all over. 


I hope I have inspired your eyes to be on the look out for unexpected treasures! 


Happy hunting!
