I don't know about you, but I am LOVING this weather!

My hair.... not so much. In the humidity it looks like a

brillo pad. Seriously.

Anyway,

I have been busy making over my porch.

I found this set of wicker furniture

on someones curb a few years back during

spring clean up.

At the time, I didn't need it, so I gave it to my

good friend Angie.

She used it for a time

and

recently decided it was time for it to go,

so it came to my house.

It needed a little TLC but instead of painting it white,

I decided to go with color.

So I went with Krylons Catalina Mist.

I love how it turned out.

It's just so bright and cheery

but not over the top.

I "borrowed" this box from the store
and
it matches perfectly!


I am very much looking forward to the long weekend.
I plan on doing a whole lot of nothing,
with some grilling thrown in,
and of course
smores making on our new fire pit.

I hope you also enjoy your weekend doing whatever

it is that you love to do.

Today, I got the sweetest suprise......

My niece Haley, gave me this apron that she

made in sewing class

at school.

(I'm kind of diggin' it over the petitcoat, it would make a cute ruffle)

Isn't it darling?????

She picked out fabric she knew I would love,

and I do!

I plan on taking it to the store and using it

when I make candles.

I'm super impressed that she actually

MADE this.

Sewing is one thing I would love to learn to do,

now I know who can teach me!!!

Who knows, maybe I can get her to crank some

out to sell in the store!

Thanks Haley....

I love it and YOU!
