Welcome to the Easter Celebration Bouncity Bounce Bloggity Hop! Hosted by the Pride of Ladies at the Just a Few Friends Team! We have some fun and creative ideas for you this month! PURRFECT! Or maybe I should say EGGcellent! lol I sooooo love Easter! Before we get to my project for today I wanted to share an Easter memory...My sister-in-law Edie, married my brother, George, when I was about 12 years old in 1974. Well she always loved holidays but especially loved Easter. She would decorate her big bay window in her kitchen every year. Sadly she passed away in December 1997. Several years later in 2004 my husband, Mikel and I bought their house from my brother. There were so many treasures that he left for me! One of those treasures was the box of her Easter Decorations! I think of her always in this house and around our property...her rose bushes are still here...as well as her peonies and Iris'! So here is a picture of her favorite Easter bunny family! This has be...

Valentine's Day Mini with Mailbox

Image
As most of you know I participated in a February celebration with Just a Few Friends design group...or at least I was supposed to. The night I was supposed to post this mailbox and mini I ended up in the hospital with a pretty critical situation. After I got out of the hospital I was able to post the mailbox but didn't post the mini because I did not feel like it was completed and wasn't happy with what I had. So I have taken more time and completed the mini that goes into this cute little mailbox. I changed some things, took out some things and added more things...lol Also to let you know we are actually doing this every month. This group is hosted by Elsa with Just a Few Designs with her daughter Krystal and Aussie friend Kimi. Linda and I have joined their group and are having a wonderful time. We will be posting for Saint Patrick's day on March 17th and we have a really cool giveaway opportunity! I have posted the group information at the end of this post! Enjoy! H...

My Valentine Project...Late! I know!

Image
This is part of the Valentine project that I was to post last Monday night just in time for Valentines Day but I ended up in the hospital with a pretty serious situation. I am on the mend! So here is the Mailbox I created for this post. I also have a mini album that goes inside but it isn't quite where I want it to be now. I had decorated it very simply and will post pics sometime today or tomorrow. I am getting to use my new camera I got for Christmas though from my wonderful hubby! It is a Kodak Easyshare and is pretty neat and easy to use...anyway! I hope you like my Valentine mailbox even if it is late! LOL!
