I like vintage looks. I have a tacky gene that loves to mix prints. I have fun trying new things with my hair. I'm a bargain hunter and hardly ever buy an item full price. I love to sew, and feel pleased as punch when I wear something of my own design.

First Day of Fall
Pine cone Necklace: Auction

News flash...the first day of Fall was last Sunday. Yeah I know, I'm a bit late, especially in this instant day and age! Whatever. The weather cooperated (it was a miracle) with the calendar. We had a crisp Fall day by our standards. I was so excited to be able to wear this velvet skirt so early! And yeah I just had to throw on the pine cone and acorn necklaces. :o)
Forest Gump says, "Life is like a box of Chocolates." I say, "Life is like Texas Weather, you never know what you're gonna get."
Alright, so I sense you wondering about the ma-hoo-sive rock I'm standing on. Hubby dug it up out of the middle of our driveway...with a shovel. And moved it to it's current resting place all by his manly self! Oops, getting distracted... :o)
So this rock stuck up in the drive about the size of a shoebox. A weird shaped shoebox for sure. Every time we backed out we would bump-bump over that dang rock. Then we would worry that it wasn't the rock, but one of our cats didn't get out of the way! So we'd stop, get out, look under with fingers crossed and be half irritated, half relieved to see that rock. Hubby couldn't take it anymore and started digging, and digging, and digging. And now I have a new prop for blog photos! :o)
