March Scavenger hunt

Joining Kathy of Postcards from the P.P. again for the March Scavenger hunt. I had fun playing along although there were a few challenges that I improvised.

Part of my collection of blue graniteware.

About the fanciest gate I could find in town.

No live lambs here either. Made this for my daughter when she was little.

Couldn't find a live lion either, so this is a dandy"lion".

Rainbow clothes, rainbow candy.

My wedding ring, 35 years old.

My shadow while riding my bike.

My mom's chair, the emptiest chair around.

Love this peeling paint.

Same idea as Kathy, the only thing I have that's the same age as myself.

Green "green".

This belonged to my little sister whom I lost 3 years ago.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hope all your days are this happy, you find a rainbow in your heart and all your wishes come true!!

green week, pink saturday and a makover

joined a green group this week started by shining egg and posted a few pictures to the flickr group there. i painted this bed years ago for my girls and it took weeks. when my younger daughter moved for college i repainted the red to pink (for pink saturday) and the bright green to lime. she used it all her four years there and now i need to pass it on to clear out the room. my great niece is interested since her room is lime green. i hope she wants it and the dresser that matches. 
now on to other news. this is why i need to clear the room!

this is my new studio in progress. (i should have taken before pics) i debated for quite a while about what color and feeling i wanted the room to have. finally decided on this aqua called "montego bay". it's pretty bright and happy and i hope will give me energy when i'm working in there.
the closet is huge and i'll add some shelving behind the big doors for my fabrics. the door to the side leads to the front porch but is painted shut right now. (the stuff on top is for the girls, mostly kt).
the little closet in the corner is divided in two. one side is the downflow for the central heating and the other side has all the girls' long gowns. maybe i could convince them to take them to their house one day and clear out some more space!
still a lot of work to be done, i'm both dreading and anticipating moving my stuff in here. i know  find some stuff i haven't seen in years! it may take months!! wish me luck.
