Thankful Post

With Thanksgiving drawing closer, I thought it fitting to do a thankful post.

Here goes...

~ I am thankful for my Lord and Savior!

~ I am thankful for my hubby, we have been through a lot the past 3 years!

~ I am thankful for 2 great kids and a great SIL!

~ I am thankful that the Lord has seen to it that we are able

 to make our mortgage in MI and our rent in IL.

~ I am thankful to my friends who haven't forgotten

me since moving. That we keep in touch regularly and

they already came to see me!

~ I am thankful to all my blogging friends who support me.

Who teach me new techniques, crafts and inspire me to

decorate even my 635 sq. ft.!

~ I am thankful for my Emma the Bulldog who makes me laugh

and go for walks!

There is so much to be thankful for and it keeps me going!

What are you thankful for?

Have a great day friends!

Hugs!

Blessed, The Love and The Makeover

Hello!!!

First off, I feel very blessed that my son is safe in Oklahoma and that he only saw the killer and destructive tornadoes on the radar at the television station where he interns as a meteorologist. I'm sooo sorry to all of you who actually experienced the tornadoes first hand. My thoughts and prayers are with you!!!

Now for the love part of my giveaway. Remember all comments from each day I post until Friday will be entered in the giveaway. Here's the love...

A sweet indulgence of mine as of late. YUM!!!

And a pretty little heart paperweight that I made this morning! A little love for my blogging friends! Good luck to you all!

Now for the makeover that has been a year in the doing because of lack of time. Hubby is only home for a day and a half a week soooo I decided on no new paint for now. I am a terrible painter and I have a hard time paying someone for something I know hubby can do. Maybe some day we will set aside vacation time to paint. For now, I am happy with the progress and will add decorative touches to distract from the lack of paint color!

2 shelves put together by hubby. I arranged my stamps by theme and have a few more there in the corner to go on one of the other shelves yet to be put together. These shelves are from Office Depot, a part of the Christopher Lowell Collection. They look really nice. Not pictured yet is a lateral file that is storing yarn in one drawer and gift bags and tissue in another.

This is the other side of the stamp/craft room. Everything has been shoved to this side. This side will be tackled in the next couple of weeks.

I am off to start working on the last 2 pieces to be added to the giveaway. I hope the one turns out or it won't make it into the giveaway. Have a wonderful day!!!

Hugs!
