A Little Bungalow Bling

Talent is a commodity that's not in short supply here in blogland,

but every once in a while you meet someone who has that something special.

Shelly is one of those talented and creative people that are innovative and a step ahead.

I've known Shell for over a year,

and recently she had a give away on her blog

Bungalow Bling.

Look who was the lucky winner!!

Shell works in several mediums

and this time she was making the most adorable fabric necklaces.

This is an extra goodie that she gifted me with.

Below, Irma is modeling my sweet necklace.

Shell makes everything to order; special just for you.

These are just a few of her other creative pieces that she sells.

wedding cake toppers,

party hats,

crowns,

every piece one-of-a-kind,

and gorgeous!!

Please go visit Shelly at her blog,

then be sure to follow her,

and bookmark her as a "favorite".

So the next time you have a special occasion coming;

birthday,

wedding,

graduation,

shower...

you can visit Shelly and order a special gift

that the recipient will treasure forever.

Vintage Inspiration Friday #48 A Day Sale

I wanted to share a few photos from the back porch of a wonderful

shop called Lula Mae's in Fordland, Missouri,

that will soon be opening for a day sale each month.

Two of my crazy friends Kenda and Jan from Leola's in Ozark

I had so many other wonderful shots from inside

the store and cottage,

but I didn't have the settings right on my camera,

so many of them were fuzzy.

(live and learn)

I know this next one is super fuzzy,

but I just had to show you this chandelier!

yes, that's right, a French flower pot for a lampshade!

(a few of those wonderful clay pots came home with me)

And I want to mention again about the new feature

I'm starting up called

 Design Challenge

Thanks so much everyone, for your great response

Hopefully, we'll have our first feature next week.

If you haven't read how this idea came about,

then just scroll down to the last post.

Hope you'll be a part of the fun!

Here are some wonderful links from last week.

Thanks so much for linking up to the party,

you all have the best inspiration around!!

Rosemary from Ozma of Odds has magic in her hands.

She creates the most beautiful things,

and you have to see her Rose-Mary rocking chair.

(and this is the view from the back)

Come visit Marcia at the Vintage French Hen

and tour her amazing Milk House Cottage

Karen, the Vintage Bag Lady

has just moved her girls into the Chicken Mansion,

come take a peek!

and chances are you've seen Laurie's fabulous frenchy pots

at Heaven's Walk,

but just in case, you have to go see for yourself.

just amazing!!

One more for good measure,

this amazing painting by Ricki from Art at Home.

Isn't it wonderful, I thought it was a photo at first!

Hope you can
