The Turkeys are Restless...



Since Thanksgiving is this week
 I thought I'd better share the "Hall Sideboard",
if I am going to do it.
This is by far my most favorite place in the house to decorate.
(is most favorite grammatically correct?)
(OK, so you know what I mean)

And since next week all the turkeys will fly the coop,
and the little sugar houses will start to appear,
here's the Thanksgiving edition.






















My fingers are itchin' to grab those sugar houses!!

I'm linking up with these wonderful parties:




                                       








Have a great week
I'll see you Friday for:


love,
Debra

How to Spell "Dumb": An UPdate!

OK, that would be me...I guess I need to learn not to do something when I'm tired, because I make silly mistakes. Point in fact; last night when I did the party button for the Christmas Parties in December for Vintage Inspiration Friday, I left off the "S" in "designs". So all of you sweet people that grabbed the button, I have redone it so you can actually get my correct blog address. duh...



So sorry for the confusion...
this is the correct one.
Now back to our scheduled programming...

love y'all.

Vintage Inspiration Friday #12 Jewelry Inspired By the Past

Hi Everyone, it's
Vintage Inspiration Friday!

I've always been inspired by antique and vintage jewelry.
I love the unique materials and craftmanship...
one of a kind vintage beauty.



I have several old heirloom family pieces of jewelry that I wear frequently.
But when I discovered that I could put together pieces that were old
with newer and vintage elements...
I found my heart's desire.




I've been adding several items to my Etsy Shop for Christmas giving.
And I've re-done a few of the pendants and added chains to them;
new prices and photos to share.



Rosary beads and chains married for an elegant and vintage look.






Strands of pearls and vintage chains...





crowns and crosses





puffy heart lockets with my signature keys





I also have new medals that can be added to the vintage key pendants...

St. Jude
St. Rita
St. Ann
St. Agatha
St. Raphael
Our Lady of Lourdes
Miraculous Medal
St. Francis of Assisi
Holy Ghost Medal
St. Joan of Arc
and St. Christopher Medals



Just email me or convo me at Etsy for something just for you,
and we'll design something special.




Thank you, to each one of you who has let one of my designs
find it's way into your heart.

Hope you'll join in for
Vintage Inspiration Friday


love,
Debra
