Alzhemiers Awareness

This post is dedicated my Mother. I lost her three years ago to this horrid memory robbing disease. So this year I decide to honor her and do my door decor and bring awareness to this cause. My Mother was crafty also, she sewed professionally, her speciality was bridal gowns. She crocheted, decoupaged, and loved to cook. And loved to decorate for Christmas.  I guess that's where I get my craftiness from. 
Here's my tribute:

I urge to get out and walk in a relay, donate to this cause. If you are experiencing this with a loved out, get a support system, believe me it helps. My prayers are that we find a way to stop this disease.


Until Next Time :

Sherbert Summer

 Hello All!!! Sorry I haven't been on to post anything fun, kind of been in a slump.
I recently went to New Orleans to see some of grand kids and be a tourist.. Had a blast.
The summer has been so hot and humid, and that always makes me what ice cream . And what better refreshing treat for these kind of days , but sherbet. I love the colors of lime, orange, yellow and raspberry.
I decided to freshen up my decor with those colors. I made this large arrangement for my living room:


And this one for my table in the kitchen :


Seen with my table scape here:


This table is set with a raspberry tablecloth, lime green place mats and napkins. Raspberry glittered chargers ,  with yellow dinner plates and flatware, lime green salad plates and orange bowls and glassware, complete my sherbet table.

This one is for my coffee table:



And this fun table scape complete with a gnome door:

And lastly my fun mantle :

Well I hope all you have enjoy my summer fun decor. Time to enjoy the last few days of it, as school is starting soon.  I will be back soon to share my newest idea for my front door...

Until then .........ENJOY!
