About Me

I am recently retired and now have time to "smell the roses"! I am quite fond of unique and antique items. More often than not I will find something interesting at the antique mall that will call out to me. I've purchased a multitude of dustable "treasures" that way. I enjoy decorating for all holidays, but Halloween is my favorite. I like to do counted cross stitch on aged linen using reproduction sampler patterns and/or primitive charts. I'm a big fan of note papers, ribbons, and vintage stickers, too.

Thank you for the not only the card but the lovely letter and all the goodies inside. I'm going to try the recipe to take to my parents' house on Thanksgiving. I was wondering what I could take that was new and different. I will definitely write you back. Have a great Thanksgiving!
