Happiness is a Bluebird!



I have recently become enamoured with bluebirds.

I found this teapot at T.J.Maxx on Saturday and I really like it. I have a few other bluebird items on the display shelf in my kitchen. I have a lot of Fitz and Floyd items,too and even though this one is not, it could have fooled me it looks a lot like their style.


Saturday because it rained for 3 days (what a blessing! We really needed it as we are having drought conditions here in Texas) we cleaned the garage instead. I now have the amount of
"treasure " in my garage down to a manageable amount. So, since most of Saturday was consumed with cleaning I didn't get to wallpaper until today. I am happy to report that the paper is all up. I am waiting for the wallboard to dry and then I will mount the standards for the shelving. I still have a lot of work to do but the end is finally in sight .I need to deciding what and where everything should go, then organize it. We've come a long, long way and it is really beginning to look like a cozy little room.
Hope each and everyone of you has a great week and the most festive Saint Patty's day!

Beautiful teapot. Over here in Holland we are glad when it doesn't rain a couple of days. I wish we could distribute it a little bit more.
Greetings from a now sunny Holland.

Don't you just love TJ Maxx?? I always find such nice things there myself. They have a similar store called HomeGoods here in Minnesota that carries just housewares and home decor items without the clothing. It's become my favorite place to shop. Great stuff at great prices. You would love it!!

I love the bluebird teapot, it is so cute. Thank heavens for the rain, I hate droughts, they are so hard to manage. I love the way your laundry room is coming along, it'll be done before you know it!
