Good news and sad also.
LaMarr's mother passed away last year,we both miss her,
She left LaMarr her beautiful old home built in 1932,crown mouldings,
hardwood floors just a beautiful home,
It has been in the family since it was built
.lots of history,andf memories but also lots of growth around the old home place.
LaMarr is an only child,we have our own home,so we decided to put it up for sale,
Ooltewah is growing so fast,the small town he grew up in,is no longer that little town
where his mom owned the only country resturant and his dad the old Esso station.
LaMarr owns a AutoRacing/ Repair shop,he knows everyone in our small town.which is good,
His Dad went to the same church for 74 years,
Was a mason.shriner for 72 years.
An era is coming to an end,our old home place is a Wal-Greens now.
The country resturant long gone, The old Esso station gone but not forgotten.
Small towns and farms are in danger of becoming obsolete.
Sad.another era of our life will be gone..
This is one of my dusting powder holders.
I am in the process of embellshing these powder boxes
with elements of crystals,
Beautiful victorian pieces to cherish.
These little dressmakers I purchased primarly to restyle
I wanted to add a vintage touch
I created these for my daughters and of course myself.
I added vintage fabrics,elements of crystals,I decided to sew
the fabrics instead of glueing.
They are treasures we love~
One of the Victorian dolls in my collection.
Over the years I have collected many dolls.
My favorite is Madame Alexander..I love the lovely faces on her dolls,
Lily is one of my favorite bears,her lace dress with rose buds adorns my home.smile~
It is a stay at home day,drizzling rain and cold.
I need to work on my quilt,redesign my sewing/crafts room.
But I am in a lazy mood.
smile~
