Welcome

Welcome to our old farmhouse. Over the past year I have learned so much history of this house and the people who lived here. Ninety six years of love, loss, hopes and dreams. Preservation continues and there is always a repair to be done. We are trying to be purest in our preservation as much as we possibly can. I hope you follow along and each week I will try to give you a little history of the house as well as the first owners of the house. I've been lucky enough to find a journal from a Granddaughter who talks about the house as well as her Grandparents. So come follow along and learn about this old house as well as the occupants, old and new.

"I've got the blues"

 Just a little kitchen counter vignette.
 The blue bottles were a gift from my  father in law.
The wine bottle holder a thrift store find. The metal rooster
 was a gift from my daughter a few years ago.
 I placed enerything in a shallow black wicker tray
then places that on a wicker placemat for a little interest.
 Tart burner from Kirklands.
 Tuned an old picnic basket into a holder for my
dishwashing detergent. Used a couple of old wine
bottles to hold the detergent.

Thanks for stoppinging by.
I am joining Marty at "A Stroll Thru Life"
for Table Top Tuesday.
See You There,
Sandy
