Some Vintage Goodness and Happy News . . .

Did this week fly by or is it just me??  I've been busy in my Etsy shops this week.  I've been pulling out some bins from the garage.  It's like a treasure hunt to me.  I never know what I'm going to find!!  I have bins that were in the garage at our other house for years and at this point don't have a clue as to what's in them.  Needless to say, I'm having lots of fun and also getting lots of new items listed in my Etsy shops.

A few of many vintage Valentine's I found . . .

 These two have been keeping me company in the studio. 

Is that a look of contentedness or what??  LOL!!!!

Definitely one of my favorites!!

I also found a bunch of vintage baby cards that I'm still going thru and hope to be listing soon.  They just don't make them like this anymore. 

I need to do some organizing and cleaning up before I take anything else out of the garage.  I'm beginning to not be able to see my counter tops!!


We also had this happen this week . . .

Hurray for Trevor!!!  His cast is now below his knee.  We thought it wouldn't be until the next visit so it was a very pleasant surprise!!!  He goes back in three weeks to have the cast completely removed and then he'll have to wear a boot and finally be able to start to put some weight back on it.  He'll also start physical therapy then.  There's still a long way to go but there is a light at the end of the tunnel!!!  : )
 
I wish you all a wonderful weekend!!  We're expecting rain here in New York.  We did get to see some snow in the last few days but nothing to write home about. Miss Megan has not one but two birthday parties to attend tomorrow.  She'll be making pottery in the morning and bowling in the evening.  She told me she wants to pick out her party outfit as soon as she wakes up in the morning.  Oh, the life of a five year old girl!!!  : )

Many blessings to you all ~ Wendy

Starting to Get Back in the Saddle Again . . .

Having a baby this past year really threw me for a loop. I have next to zero time management skills to begin with so trying to juggle taking care of a nursing infant, a household with three other kids and two dogs and three cats and every twist and turn that life had to throw at me left me with very little time for my two Etsy shops or for blogging.



Now that the baby is a little older and not as "attached" to me as often as she was the first six months of her life, I'm carving out more time for me. YAY ME !!!! ; )





I've started listing some pretty Valentine goodies in my shop.





Sweet vintage images for scrapping or handmade cards.

February 14th will be here before you know it !!








It really feels good to be back!!

Many blessings ~ Wendy
