Halloween!!

Trick or Treat?

Just some pictures of my recent Halloween pieces. I have already started working on my favorite holiday. Garden Memories will be carrying all of these for Halloween. If you are ever interested in any of my pieces, just let me know.

Not sure why these came out so small.

Robyn, from Happy House of Haas wanted to see some of the things I have been working on. So this is what I was doing in between my remodel, and getting ready for the 4Th of July.

Hope you all have a nice week!
Love,
Rosemary

Looking for This!!!

Hi All!!!
I thought you might be able to help!!!

I am looking for the impossible.


The 2004 retired Wendy Addison Large DREAM Garland.


I am obsessed with finding it.


I want it for above my bed. I did the room redo, and I need this to be the icing on the cake!!!


I thought I would ask the help of my fellow bloggers!!


I will even make it worth your while. I will award a prize to the person who finds where I can purchase this illusive item. I have scoured the Internet, and eBay only to come up without it.
So if you can help me out let me know.
I appreciate the help.
Thanks in advance.
Love,
Rosemary

Happy 4TH of July!!!!

Have a safe and Happy 4TH!!!


I will be hosting a BBQ tomorrow, so I am taking today to get ready.

Cleaning, gardening, and cooking.

Just wanted to wish you a lovely weekend.
I will visit your blogs when I can.

Love,
Rosemary

I'm Finally done!!

Here are a few pictures of my new bath/bedroom!!
It took me all last week, until yesterday to finish the painting.
Now things are getting back in order.
It was kind of like moving.


We are very happy with the results!!!


I have missed visiting all of your blogs lately.

I should have more time to visit this week!!

Although, 4Th of July is at my house, so I need to get busy with that.

Hope you have a great week, and a Happy 4Th of July!!

Love,

Rosemary

Remodel Update!!

Still working people!!!

I have been painting all week. Walls, vanity, woodwork etc. Now I am waiting for the carpet guy.
You can see in the mirror the ugly blue carpet we have had since we moved in. It was in great condition, but blue, not a fan!!

As you can see the vanity is starting to shape up. I have finished antiquing the doors.
So next week we should have some afters to show you.

In the meantime, have a great weekend!!

Love,
Rosemary

Busy Busy!!

Happy Monday!!

Sorry I haven't had a chance to post, or visit all of your blogs lately.

Still working on my bedroom/bathroom remodel. This week, I am doing all of the painting.

I am painting the bathroom, vanity, and the bedroom. I took a week off from my artwork in order to concentrate on painting. My husband is getting anxious to use our beautiful new shower. I am working as fast as I can honey. He has been great, living with the mess for the last couple of weeks.

Anyway, on Saturday Mark and I went up to Carpinteria, not only to beat the heat, but to attend the Paris Flea Market. You have heard me speak of it before. It's a small flea market, but great vendors with beautiful things for sale. I forgot to bring my camera, but you can check it out on a previous post.

I bought this beautiful red and white all down chair. I had a chair in this corner for years, but it wasn't down, and it was time for a change. The color fit in nicely too. I got a fairly good deal for down. I posted my old one on Craigslist this morning. In case you are wondering, that is the sun reflecting on the chair.

It was fun to find something, I wasn't actually looking for. It was just one of those things. I can't wait to curl up and read a good book.

After the flea market, we went to Garden Memories in Ventura to visit my friend Barbara. I usually visit her every Saturday to bring her new things I've made for her shop. Anyway, she had these beautiful new busts. Did I have to buy one? Yes I did. I think she will look beautiful in my new bathroom. (Once it's finished) She had them in white and moss. I could hardly decide which one to buy. I think the moss one would look wonderful in the garden. I think she is kind of magical looking. Kind of like you unearthed her from a 100 year old sleep, in a Kingdom far away. ( I think the paint is getting to me)

Have a wonderful week, and I will visit you all when I can.

Love,

Rosemary

Here is the old chair, thought you might like to see it. I had a custom slipcover made for it about 9 years ago. It's held up very well.
