Kitchen Dog Bed

This is right where every dog wants to be, near food and underfoot. What a perfect place for a built-in dog bed. Webster would love this.

Tole Trays As Art

I found this beautiful photo recently and saved it but forgot to make a note of the source. Isn't it lovely? I love this collection of tole and paper mache trays hanging on the wall, don't you? What a nice way to display a great collection. Of course you know I'm crazy about that painted floor too. Happy Friday, the weekend is almost here. Rainy day again at my house but I got a lot of quality outdoor work done yesterday so I don't even care. Later, Rosemary.

First Daffodils At The Cottage

I picked my first daffodils from the edge of the woods today. I couldn't resist. I did a lot of spring cleanup in the front and had to walk by a clump with two stems in full bloom when dumping leaves and weeds. The sun was shining perfectly on this one.

They are in a glass on my kitchen counter now. So nice.

Blue Iris

I love these blue iris. I had them at my former house. Forgot to dig some up to bring me. Should I knock on the door and ask if this would be possible? I might just do that.

Bunny Ears Napkin Folding for Easter

Maybe those of you familiar with origami can figure this out. I haven't tried to fold a napkin into bunny ears yet and probably won't but I like the idea. Thanks to Martha Stewart. Click on the link for larger images and an update or two. Nice for your Easter table.

Sweetest Child's Room Ever

I absolutely love this map bed, don't you? It's in the perfect boy's room that he won't outgrow anytime soon. So sweet and not too juvenile. I like the wooden soldier lamp too. Actually I like it all. Interior design for children must be so much fun.

A Totally Knitted Home

Natural gas commercial
This is so clever. Imagine every surface of your home covered with knitting. Amazing and warm I would imagine. I try to remember that there are people in other parts of the world that are going into colder weather as we are going into our spring mode. This is for the people down under.

Drive-In Movies At Home

I still miss drive-in movies, don't you? Nothing else comes close. Wouldn't you love to have this at your house? I remember seeing this long ago and was happy to be reminded of it again today. Someone actually has this on the back side of their house. Too cool for words.

And while we are on the subject, I miss drive-in restaurants too complete with delivery persons on roller skates. I wish someone would open one near me. I think it would be a big hit.
