GiveAway News~

2009-06-08T16:33:00.000-07:00

Hello there! I just stumbled upon this blog and WOWZA, she's having not 1 but 2 giveaways!!!!

You must check it out!!! http://www.theartinyou.blogspot.com/

Collections & Obsessions

2009-05-31T06:47:00.000-07:00

There's nothing better than a good book and the time to look through it! I visited one of my favorite blogs (http://twopixiedolls.blogspot.com/) not to long ago, and she gave a little sneak peek at this book titled "Art Making, collections&obsessions" by Lynne Perrella.... So naturally I had to run out and see what it was all about, I couldn't wait to sit down and take a look.....

This is one of the most fascinating pictures....

Collectors from all over! Are you a collector?!

I just love bunnies of course....

There's so many artists in this book, just to name a few....

Laurie Zuckerman, Jane Wynn, Laura Stanziola, Joanna Pierotti, Lesley Riley& Lisa Kaus.

So many wonderful collections!

Then I stumbled upon this sunshiney book! Sew Pretty Homestyle by Tone Finnanger.

Everything is so pretty and if you can sew (which I cannot) it looks pretty simple. I just may try my hand at it!!!!

And, If you remember, I had a cottage naming contest awhile ago and the name that was picked was "Gypsy Hollow". I'm starting my very own notebook on the "Gypsy Hollow" look and lifestyle!

And, lastly... I'm going to be putting up some flea market finds for sale! I'm trying to find a venue to sell that fits my needs and actually gets me results, so in the meantime, I think I'll do alittle selling right here! So here's 16 doll faces for sale! All 16 for sale and shipping is included in the price!

UNAVAILABLE!!!!!!!!! Thank you from The Studio at Crow Haven Farm!!!!http://thestudioatcrowhavenfarm.blogspot.com/

Thank you for stopping by for a visit! Hope you enjoyed the books!!!!

Hello! I'm having my very first contest! And anyone can play! I've been wanting to name my little cottage home and I can't for the life of me figure out a name. That's where you come in! I'm wanting YOU to name my cottage! All you have to do is leave the name you wish in the comment section and if I pick your cottage name, you win a little goodie bag!!! I'm going to let this run for about 10 days, this way I can also take a little blogging break! And I will do a post to let you know the day before I pick a name!!

These are the goodies!

Tasha Tudor

2009-03-27T08:11:00.000-07:00

Aahhh, simpler times! I just admire Tasha Tudor! Even in modern times, she lived a simpler more pleasurable life than most! I dream of days long ago. What it must have been like!

Her Vermont home, though only 30 years old, feels as though it was built in the 1830's, her favorite time period. Seth Tudor, one of Tasha's four children, built her home using hand tools when Tasha moved to Vermont in the 1970's. Tasha Tudor lived among period antiques, using them in her daily life. She was quite adept at 'Heirloom Crafts', though she detested the term, including candle dipping, weaving, soap making, doll making and knitting. She lived without running water until her youngest child was five years old.

From a young age Tasha Tudor was interested in the home arts. She excelled in cooking, canning, cheese-making, ice cream making and many other home skills. As anyone who has eaten at Tasha Tudor's would know, her cooking skills were unsurpassed. She collected eggs from her chickens in the evenings, cooked and baked with fresh goats milk, and used only fresh or dried herbs from her garden. Tasha Tudor was renowned for her Afternoon Tea parties.

Please visit the website where all of this information is from!!: http://www.tashatudorandfamily.com

Hope you all have a marvelous weekend!~
