Helping Hands

Look at this adorable little hand,
I love the dimples.
and the loving heart...
that goes with these
tiny hands.


Many of you know Libbie from her blog,
And if you know Libbie,
you know her cutie pie daughter,
Annie.

She has the most precious heart.
She loves people and Jesus,
and when she heard about the earthquake in Haiti,
she wanted to go and help,
or at the very least
send all their money.





Libbie, being a wonderful and wise mommy,
wanted to use this opportunity to help,
and at the same time allow her daughter
an expression of brotherly love and giving.

So Annie made beaded bracelets,
to sell to raise funds for the people of Haiti.

bracelets...

bracelets,

and more...

bracelets.


                                           

She has sold them door to door...



At church, and through many other people and businesses.
All so she could help the people of Haiti.



Here are my two bracelets that I purchased,

made just for me,

with love,

from Annie.

In a time when there are so many
bad things going on in the world,
I wanted to share what is "good",

a child whose heart
and hands
work together.

blessings,
Debra

White Wednesday and an Introduction

With only one more White Wednesday
before Valentine's Day,

I wanted to share with you what I put together
 for my daughters for their little Valentine's gift.



I like to take everyday objects and dress
 them up with a little inspiration.
Ribbon and shredded book pages with a few candies
decorated two sweet vintage cow creamers
from my herd in the kitchen.


After Valentine's Day when the kisses are gone,
they can change out the ribbon for Easter.


And speaking of "Inspiration",
 I want to share some good news,
especially for you in the area.

I will be hosting a "Shop Blog"
for my good friend,
Debra Moore of

(click to visit her new site)



There will be updates and current photos
 of all the wonderful merchandise
that is "in store", and posts of beautiful new things
that will soon be coming in from Debra's trip to market.

If you are interested in merchandise
or have questions, just give her a call.
 Or better yet, come by the store in

 Springfield, Missouri,
for yourself, and bring a friend!

You will love the Garden Room...







And her wonderful displays.


You'll Be Inspired!


Even if you don't live in the area,
 you will enjoy seeing the shop,
and all the great things that are there.


Drop by the shop site,
and take a peek.

and while you're there,
give Debra a big bloggy hug,
by joining as a follower,

Thank you Kathleen, for another


Have an Inspiring Week!

love,
Debra
