Hello Ruth, I have been given the 5 Blogs that Make My Day award which I am passing on to you. Don't feel any pressure to participate if you don't wish to (I know some bloggers just don't "do" awards). However, I just wanted you to know that yours is one of my favorites.
Blessings,
Christi
P.S. I love the pictures of your mantels!
For centuries, garden arbors have been a fixture in homes and gardens from the most expensive mansions to the most humble villa and everything in between. The garden arbor originated in Italy, but they can be found all over the world bringing fragrant smells and character to any garden area. There are many different types of arbors and trellises to meet every personal taste.
wow love the seashells and mantel gorgeous display!
Great ideas and I love the idea of seasonal decor, always so interesting.
wish you a nice day! suzy

Beautiful mantel! Hope you are having a wonderful week.
hello! love those mantel shots! I especially love the halloween one, and the pumpkin with the sunflower eyes. did you make the three halloween dolls that sit above the mantel? I also recognized that sweet halloween candle that I loved.. I think I told you that I did find one and didnt buy it when I should have! of course it was gone when I went back for it!
On my flickr site, I have a set I think I called it faces of my mantel of something like that...
