A little art for my cart........

My first piece of art for my camper.  I'm not sure where I got this image.  I would happily recognize the original pinner if I could find it again.  This is a print that I transferred to a canvas.......laters

Vintage Love/3

So, it's been a minute since I posted anything but if you'll remember, the last thing I had "planned" to do to my lil Scotty was to rip out the carpet.  Well...........lookie lookie lookie what I found under the carpet!!!!



Can you believe how good it looks???  I mean, it's not beautiful and I'm certain I wouldn't have chosen it but I can definitely work with it.  At least I can keep it clean, unlike the nasty carpet.......if you could just see the big ol' grin I'm wearing :-)

Vintage Beauty

Ahhhh,,,,,,,,,,,,,it's no wonder I love vintage linens.  Look at this beautiful new/old tablecloth that now belongs to me.  It belonged to my great grandmother.  I wish I knew the story behind it.  I do know that the flowers appear to have been  hand appliquéd and the edging appears hand stitched as well.   I don't know if my great grandmother made it but isn't it lovely????

~Just Peace~

Well, it's been an unusual kind of week.  I haven't had the opportunity to do any work on my lil Scotty other than search for the perfect fabric for cushions and curtains.  I'm still searching :-)  I have been reading other blogs about vintage re-do's and find them super encouraging.   There is so much great advise and useful information to learn from fellow vintage lover's.  I have a confession:  I find myself going in my Little Lovely on a daily basis, even though no "visual" progress is being made.  It already feels like ~JUST PEACE~.....................laters

Vintage Love/2

Today I'm recovering from the two root canals I had yesterday.  Tomorrow I will be ripping out the old carpet.  I wonder what the floor covering underneath will look like?  Could be interesting........laters

Rain drops keep falling on my head.......

Well, with all the rain over the weekend, I didn't do any work on the outside of my camper.  After a quick, not thorough, cleaning, I took the measurements of all the cushions.  Sewing is something I can be doing while waiting on the repair work.  I do dread tearing out the damaged wood but I sure look forward to the finished product.  This is sooooo exciting!
