ReplyDeletethat pug made me happy onn so many levels; thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLove the mirrors - I'm going on a cruise in April with some friends they would be great to share with all the ladies in my group! Also can't wait to try making the candle's you posted yesterday! I have already put aside a few pieces that have just been sitting in my cabinet - love repurposing!

Congratulations to your winner... :) and LOVE the Cute Photo!!! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Andrea-thanks for following my blog, and commenting! I have been following you, already...just double checked. You have such cute things to offer...love those pretty little mirrors, and the "beanie hat" will put a big smile on that special "someone!"
ReplyDeleteCongrats on reaching 500+...you deserve it! BTW, I think you're in Cape May...one of my fav places to visit. Haven't been in awhile but I have a rack in my kitchen that I bought at a shop called Alice in Wonderland (only it was spelled a cute way I can't remember). Is it still there? My hubby hails from Absecon (near AC) and my own family is from Asbury Park. Small world!
ReplyDeleteAndrea,
ReplyDeleteThat picture was so funny! The pocket mirrors are precious. And I need to get over to Preston's shop ...
