• Tablescape And Trash To Treasure All In One

  Acres of hidden treasure…
  In boxes and bins…
  All holding hidden beauty…
  All latent~silent gems…
  Under piles amassed…
  A hoarder’s stash…
  Of would be~could be…
  And should have beens.
  The Muse gathered her coinage…
  And smartly thus…
  Bought a wondrous bounty…
  As to make pirates lust….
  A silver teapot battered about…
  A bird whose wing was weak…
  Not secure or truly stout…
  Paper roses wrinkled and worn…
  Their edges thread tattered and torn…
  Potpourri whose scent had gone…
  Yes, the list of loot went on and on…
  Golden water goblets…
  The color of sunrise at dawn…
  And stands of crystal
  Where once~long [...]

• Traveling Back From The North Pole….

  The Muse is moving slow…
  As there is lots of snow…
  But on to Pink Saturday…
  She must go…

  Handmade tags…
  Adorn the swags and wreath…
  That are sporting vintage pink…

  The Muse makes tags…
  From papers afar…
  She was creative this year…
  And made a car…

  The Muse…
  Built a house…
  With windows, doors, snow…
  And even a mouse…
  Can you see the pink trees???…
  But what oh what ….
  Is pink”er” than me?…
  …………………

  Asks new baby Garret…
  With Christmas glee…
  As he lovingly gazes…
  At his Muse Nanny !
  That is my new GRANDSON!

• Oh What Tuesday Brings

  Tablescape Tuesday

  little greenery, and candles (.15cent candle holder )

  vintage 1950’s cocktail rooster napkins…
  lovely aren’t they?

  family monogrammed silver spoons and china…

  and a special spot for two has been created!

  pure simplicity…
  if cloches are for special things…then why not my guests?

  white china…
  the staple…
  adding silver gold white and greens.

  Trash to Treasure Tuesday

  not silver…but it has an allure

  can’t beat the price….but it is in terrible shape…
  get the price down to 1.00…
  and prepare my [...]

  that keep me out…TODAY.
