Little Bit of This and A Little Bit of That

Let me just tell you.... if I were independently wealthy and did not need to work ..... I could have soooo much fun!!! I have been enjoying the time off from work this past week so very much! I had nothing on my agenda to do but hang out with my girls and sew. Well, there are two days left of my vacation and I finally sewed something today! I have been wanting to take some of the old flat bed pillows that have been hanging around the house and convert them into something pretty for my chairs outdoors. I bought a little tablecloth at the antique store a couple weeks ago and today I cut her up and made a little envelope pillow case for one of the pillows. Here she is......

I put a little bit of pink rick-rack for trim on the bottom and sewed two little yellow buttons for some extra bling. It looks really cute on my chair. A friend came over for coffee today and we tried it out. :)

My hubby also put in a clothes line for me. I washed my sheets today and put them out on the line. I am sooooo excited to climb in bed tonight and smell them. Yummmmmm.........

See the little pink dress hanging with the sheets? That is my clothes pin bag that I bought at the flea market a couple years ago. If one must do the mundane task of laundry....one should be surrounded by cuteness....don't you agree? ;)

I just love this BIG coffee cup and saucer pot. I put some flowers in there that seem to be very happy with their home. Living in a coffee cup would be lovely.......

A friend introducted me to these little jewels last year. I wish that she would not of!!!! I love them! I put them in a little dish next to my computer and I just can't control myself. Do you hear that Lori.....you created a midgee monster! ;)

And lastly, this is my newest little toy I won on Ebay. What would you like me to make for you? Cuppy cakes? Say...chocolate with pale pink butter cream frosting? Yup....that would be so nice. I saw one on this gals blog and thought wouldn't a vintage toy oven look ever so cute in my kitchen. My in-laws give me money for my birthday and I bought this for myself with that. :) I just love it!

So this is some fun I have been having the last few days. Boy do I wish I was independently wealthy....maybe I should go buy a lottery ticket. HA!
