Emma Watson | Hollywood's Top Female Money Maker
Emma Watson is the #1 lady on Vanity Fair's List of 40 Biggest Moneymakers. She's only 19 and she made it to the top of the list ahead of Reese Witherspoon, Angelina Jolie, Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Aniston. Emma earned $30 million for her role in the final Harry Potter film. I like her so much. She seems to be very grounded and I think she will be around for many years to come. It's well-deserved success for a lovely young girl who has grown up behind the camera's lens. Fanpix image.
Weekend Reading
This wonderfully creative ad from Neilson Dairy promotes reading, going to the library, and drinking milk for a strong body and mind. I like it. It reminds me of my childhood. This young girl in in for some great reading. Luckily it appears to be summer and hopefully school is out.
Have a great weekend. Try to find a good book and escape. xo, Rosemary

Valentine To Make For The Teacher
We are expecting a snowstorm to hit overnight so I thought this would be the perfect time to show you this wonderful handmade Valentine. Gather all the supplies required while it is still clear outside so you can make some while you are snowed in.
I saw this adorable mitten on a blog back in 2008. Luckily I was able to locate the link pretty easily. Thank you Google. Read all about it on a blog that no longer exists so I deleted the link. The red heart was created with a potato stamp and the mitten was crafted from old dictionary pages. I love the glassine envelope. I guess that determined the final size of the mitten cutout. You could also string some of these together to make a bunting to hang somewhere. Feel free to customize any way you want. Let me know if you have fun making these. Rosemary

Lovely English Cottage
Give me a good English cottage any day. Love this one. Scanned from a 2004 edition of Architectural Digest I picked up at the recycling depot on Tuesday. I could never have those yew hedges at my house. The deer around here consider yew to be candy. I am totally against trying to grow anything on their eat list so I am somewhat limited. They don't like English boxwood and that is a very good thing. I must get my passport renewed. England is calling.

Sleeping With Antiques
I slept a lot later than usual this morning for some reason, so bedrooms are on my mind. I love each and every one of these from Architectural Digest. It's so nice to sleep with antiques. I'm sure I'd have sweet dreams in all of these rooms.
We have bright sun shining on the snow today. I jumped out of bed and immediately put all of my bedding and towels in the washer. It's a perfect laundry day! Clothes line here I come. Have a great day, Rosemary

Tiny Gem of a Cottage
Awwww. How darling. Do want to peek inside, don't you? I love the bench with trellises on either side. I'm sure it will be a wonderfully fragrant place to sit once the plants climb and bloom.
