{Whimsical Wednesday}: Thanksgiving and Some Fun News

This morning, I was looking for some fun vintage clipart, so naturally I did what any blogger would do...I started my search at The Graphics Fairy.
  At the top of the blog was a picture that looked familiar. Really, really familiar. 
It was my silhouette drawer shelf.  On The Graphics Fairy's DIY blog. 

Featured Here?

After refreshing the page a couple times, and it was still there, I shared my excitement with my husband ("great babe, who's the Graphic's Fairy again?")



I'm off to celebrate by cleaning the bathrooms! Yee-Haw!
If, for some crazy reason, you are not familiar with The Graphic's Fairy, stop whatever you are doing and go there as soon as you finish reading my post  now.  I've used graphics from her site many different projects.



On a more somber note, I'd like to wish all of you a safe, blessed, and happy Thanksgiving. 

Love your babies, enjoy friends and family, and don't let the details of the day get in the way of the celebration of the people, experiences, and things that we should be thankful for every day of the year.

One of the best Thanksgivings I can remember included the turkey catching on fire and the (whole) ham falling on the floor.


Happy Thanksgiving!

Whimsical Wednesday: Thanksgiving


Since Thanksgiving will be here faster than I can eat a bucket of Halloween candy...I thought I'd use this Whimsical Wednesday's post to share some inspiration for the nearly-here day. (By the way, I've already finished off the kids' Halloween candy...so you'd better start hunting down your turkey before only the 35 pounders are left...and I think those need to start thawing out...like, yesterday?)

Speaking of Thanksgiving, one thing I'm very thankful for is my amazing husband  (and my beautiful babies) and his support of my dream to have my own vintage furniture refurbishing and home decor business. I just set up my first booth on Monday at Midwest Memories.  We are allowed to display our business cards there, and I wanted to share my 1st draft with you to get your opinion:

This would be the front...and then the back is a faint picture of the chandilier with my contact and blog information right-justified in the bottom right corner in the same font as the all-caps one above.  What do you think?  I'm open to ideas.  My tags at the antique shop are just the chandilier on one side and then the information/price on the other.

take care -
