Toilet Art

Say what, toilet art!! Haha. It has been a couple of weeks since The Mister tore out the toilet in our downstairs bathroom. The lid has been sitting outside the door for about a week when one day I went by it and thought, you know what, I can do something with that. Of course Mister thought I was nuts and told me so, lol. 

So here is the old lid sitting up against the new toilet  that Mister is going to put in.

The Best Zucchini Relish

This is the best relish you will ever eat. 

It is a sweet zucchini relish. 

Not like the sweet relish you buy in the stores where it is overly sweet.

It's just the right amount of sweet!

New Mail Box

I love mailboxes. Doesn't matter what type, kind, or color. 

So when Antique Farm House had this one for sale, I bought it!!

I Love It!! 

This one came in light green. 

New "Old" Sign

I have had this stick of wood for a couple of years now, lol. I got it while volunteering here in town. When I saw it, I thought this would make a great "something", haha. Well, I finally made something with it. Only two years, not bad I would say, lol. I didn't have a picture of before but you can see what it would have looked like without the picture.

 Look at all that old wood goodness...

 Holes and all.

Great finds of the week

Well, it seems like I have been very lazy (and I have) but I still made it out to look for things I don't need. :0) Like this sweet little cake plate made of wood. 

Isn't she lovely. I think she would love to be painted white and shabbied up a bit. 

What do you think? Can't you see a pretty cake sitting here!

Our Country Kitchen

Welcome to our kitchen!! It is still being up dated and I plan to paint the ceiling and cupboards when it gets cooler outside. Right now it is about 102 degrees, whew!!!

 Everyone comes threw the kitchen door, even though it is considered the back door, lol.

Moving to the left you see the sink, my stained glass window I picked up at a yard sale for $5,

and all my signs I have collected over the years.

Mora Clock and Metal Arch Display

I can't believe it's been almost a month since I have been on here. First I got sick, which I still have this darn cold. Then I needed to get ready for my daughter's college graduation and party. Then the last two weeks we have been preparing and moving my daughter to another state. That was probably the hardest things I have ever done in my life. How about you? Any empty nesters out there? She was our only child, I don't know how I could have handled more!!!!

Well, I haven't had time to make anything yet or the want to either but I did order a couple of things that I absolutely love. I would like to share them with you.

First I ordered this Mora clock from Antique Farm House. I have wanted one of these for many many years and finally could afford a reproduction. I love Antique Farm House but most of the time they are to expensive for my blood.... So you ready to see it??

Feeling Better and Garden Pictures

I'm sorry I haven't been posting! I have been sick for a couple of weeks. Just getting back, not quite on my feet full time but getting there, whew!! The old I get the harder it is to bounce back.

I haven't been working on anything since I have been down but here are some pics from my flower garden I started at the end of May.

Hometalk and DIY Birdhouses

I love Hometalk!! 

If you love birdhouses like I do, then you will want to check out these fun DIY Birdhouses!! 

There is a desk clock repurposed into a birdhouse, a liquor bottle made into a birdhouse, who knew,  and so many more...

Grocery Sign From a Junk Board

I'm so happy how this sign turned out. Take a look!

I started with this awesome junk from my new neighbors who tore down the outbuildings on their property.
