• 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 [...]

• “Tablescape Tuesday” ~ Picture

  White dishware can offer so many options… Each holiday or event can be celebrated with basic pieces of white china or stoneware. For this Christmas table, the colors of silver and blue are combined with white to create this modern setting…the objective…to create an effect that would play off the branches (seen in the vases)… Add some wispy white feathers, blue and white snowflake tablecloth, miniature tea lights,(sprinkled with gold glitter) and a few silver ornaments…voila, the table becomes an [...]

• Spring

  Spring ! She has burst forth Ever fruitful Ever bearing And all her beauty She is sharing… Amidst the cold And dark deep nights She slept In waiting For this, her plight… To linger with us But for a moment In time… Mere days To display Her greenery So fine!

• ~One Little Closet To Rule Them All~

  Oooops! Forgot to take a true BEFORE~. But close your eyes and imagine the closet without the rich blue… Ok, that was easy enough! As you can see…the closet, all white, needed a serious design lift. So, out came the paint brushes and the paint.  In the Muse’s cottage, if you stand still, long enough you are apt to get painted (that is simply a legend…a fable~one that has some basis of truth). lol Did you like this?

• Think ~ A ~ Thought ~ Tuesday

  Rules of Play: (1) I (The Muse) offer my first reader a word. (2) They must take that word and use it in a sentence. Posting it in the comment box (3) Then they must GIVE another word, which will be the NEXT reader’s Gift. Shall we play? The word which I gift to thee is: Tenacity Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

Is pink”er” than me?… ………………… ………….. .. …… …… [...]

• ~I Dream~

  I dream…yes, I dream of sounds; fish splashing, birds chirping, darting to and fro…I dream of the lake…the sound of our boat churning…the grandchildren’s laughter as they swim…All those lovely sounds. Then, I dream of scents. The lush aromas of lovely gardens that have my mark…of raw wood that has aged for decades Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

• Brave Bird ~ Blue Monday ~ Image

  BRAVE BIRD Hear my faint and tender pleas… Gently carried upon the breeze… I grow cold and the world grows dark… I can find no sparrows, finches or larks… The trees give me no shelter, no haven to rest… I search endless hours to find a warm nest… The first to arrive, I am brave, yes I know… But this little robin, doesn’t like the snow! (another work from the young Muse, age 12) Seen here 2009 Submitted as participation [...]
