Spring is around the corner!!!

Hopefully!!!
Today was in the low 50's ~ so after supper Dolly and I went for a walk

Nothing does a body good than some fresh air!!!

The snow is slowly melting and the creeks are flowing ~

We saw and heard the Sand Hill Cranes ~
That's a sure sign that Spring is starting to arrive ~

We saw a black squirrel romping around ~

The Robins have started to arrive~

I thought this was a pretty picture ~

Recently I went treasure hunting
As most of you know that's one of my favorite things to do.
I really had a good excuse this time I had to find some goodies for my friend Marsha ~
 aka: The Tattered Chick
We're partners in Amy's (Bumble Bee Lane) Spring Tidings Swap
Here's a few of the treasures I brought home ~
Yep I found another unique baby bottle ~ this one has cats on it.

I also found this Quaker Oat Can ~
I don't know much about it ~ except I liked it and have never seen anything like it.

I've also been busy creating some new goodies ~
I made some wax tarts from a vintage mold I found when I was treasure hunting

Harvey ~ TFC Folkart Pattern

The Olde Homestead ~ Sami's Stitchery's pattern

pinkeep ~ Country Rustic pattern

1835 heart cupboard tuck ~ Country Rustic pattern

Calico Heart cupboard tuck ~ Not Forgotten Farm pattern

Other than that not much has been happening around here.
I've been popping in now and again (when I can) to visit your blogs
I just haven't been commenting much.  Sorry.

Until Next Time
Enjoy the SunSets
They sure are BEAUTIFUL!!!

  10. Lovely photos, glad Spring is finally showing her face in your neck of the woods! Great finds and lovely new makes, you have been busy! Your oatmeal tin intrigued me so I did a little internet search and I think the oatmeal tin came from somewhere in Malaysia! Putih means 'white' in Malay so oat putih would translate as white oats. How in the heck that tin made it to the U.S. would make a very interesting story I am sure!
