I have so many incredible projects going right now and no way to show you. Steve is most of the manual labor and I am the one with all the ideas. Steve doesn't always think my creativity is a good thing but I think he is the best husband a woman could Pray for.
The girls cleaned out my white pumpkins, can you believe that they still look great. I plan to plant the seeds and grow my own.
For the last couple of days I have been painting bottles silver, an idea I got from my friend in ND, thanks Traci. Another friend is getting married in ND and I am making the silver bottles for her. The bottles will have brown satin bows and a single white flower. I am unable to attend so I felt so blessed to be able to do something for her.
We (Steve) are installing the door in Caitlynd's bedroom, just in time for snow on Monday.
I am creating a wainscoting from 1 x 3 pine and white vintage tin tiles in my laundry room.
I am putting contractors kraft paper on the wall in the guest bathroom. It's looks like a mosaic which I will be painting a dark, rich brown with bright white trim.
That's it for now. Thank you so much everyone that left comments and added themselves as followers. You are such a blessing to me and I am grateful for each of you.
God bless you

Good morning
Praise God for a beautiful day. Steve and I are going to pick up the white ceiling tiles I put on layaway. I can't wait.
Tonight is Bible study I don't expect I will be posting again today, so until tomorrow.
God Bless you

fun finds
looks like an old medicine bottle, I'm not sure what I am going to do with it.
White and Rusty stole my heart
I found these beautiful dishes that match some I have already, I think I have another collection started!
Can you tell what this is? It was a wall light that didn't work so I cut the cord off. I put a candle in the socket and covered it. Recycled a light into a light.
our BEAUTIFUL children
These are our beautiful daughters, (Lf to Rt) Caitlynd 13, Kimmie 9, Sara 10, Brittany 14 and our son Jacob 20 months. We are also blessed with grown children RJ, Lori and Evan. God has blessed us with a quiver full.

FROM TRASH TO TREASURE
We bought this house on the Internet having never been to Oklahoma or to the house, only trusting that this was the place the Lord had for us. We had prayed for a few selfish things and He blessed us, not only with material things but with new friends that have become like family. Also the awesome chance everyday to see the wonders of God in the view from our home.

lots of love
This tub foot gone book end is from a friend.
We came across this fireplace mantel by chance, isn't it beautiful.
PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT, should I paint it WHITE or not.
This is an old store counter we found behind a building. It makes an awesome kitchen island, don't you agree. We'd love to hear what you think of it!!!
I love this scalloped cake pan.
THE PEDISTAL TUB
Today we started to install the pedestal tub and the vintage ceiling tiles (with an awesome cream and rusty patina) as a wall covering in the master bathroom. We still need to add the piece of pine at the top of the tin. I will be re-glazing the tub eventually but 1st things first. I will be painting the walls, the floor and the moulding. I will take pictures as we go. I am hoping to find 2 matching or similar hanging lights for over the pedestal sinks that are out of view in this picture.
