Little by little...letting go of the hoard ~

That's my new year's "thing" this year!!

LET. IT. GO.

Little by little, I'll be selling some of this hoard I have around here.

I'll never be able to make stuff out of all the goodies that

I've collected over the last few years so I thought,

why not let some of it go???

And also, if I croak, it'll all end up in a yard sale anyway, right?!

Of course, I'll save my very favorite things but it's time

to pass some of my wonderful treasures on to others ~

So, I just got started and here are a few of the first goodies!!!

I have more to come too!!!!

I just haven't gotten the items listed yet...

These few are already in my Etsy store if you'd like to look ~

I think this is a good way to start my new year.

Letting a few things go is a good thing!!!

Wishing you a beautiful Thursday sweet friends ~

hugs and love,

Dawn

The sweet, simple things ~

Our last chicken has finally started laying eggs!

I've been waiting patiently as I knew they would be AMAZING!!!!

Just look at the color of her eggs.....

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A MORE BEAUTIFUL COLOR??!!

I've been seriously considering taking one to

Lowes or Home Depot to have it color matched for paint.

Am I crazy? The color is the softest, palest, blue green....

I love this tiny box. It was a gift and is filled with tiny treasures.....

Simple little things like this make me smile ~

What's so amazing is my sweet friend Gail

has the exact same box with tiny vintage cards inside....

for sale in her Etsy shop!!!

While I'm loading photos onto my computer, I look over and right beside me,

nestled in a basket in my studio, is my precious Thelma ~

cozy and happy, I had to smile.

Then she realizes she's been spotted!

Then she sneaks out to visit me for a minute!

Another thing making me smile today is that I finished my sachets!!

They are are all sold and I'm so very thankful....

Take time to notice the simple things...the small, sweet things ~

they will always make you smile!!!

Wishing you a great Friday my dear friends ~

hugs and love to you,

Dawn
