Some Favorite Things...............


I've slowly been adding small items to my bowl rack or in my case a tray rack....I got these trays at Michael's years ago....I remember weeding through them as alot of them had broken places and were being discontinued....I had gotten them to paint and sale, but eventually they stayed with me....

I've been adding some of my favorite things on the shelf....A lamb made by my friend Dana Harpley ....A small wax mouse I got from Stephanie Monahan back before Christmas...along with a few items I've made....

I also want to share one of my all time favorite fabrics....I don't know why it is~it just is....I have had a piece for as long as I can remember ( mom gave it to me out of her fabric stash years ago) and have only shared it on one thing I've sold....I've been saving it for something special , but not sure what...And until I got the generous gift from Edie (of blue fabric), i haven't seen any more of it anywhere....As i was going through each piece of fabric she sent me, it caught my eye...I picked it up and danced around the room while I was holding it...Yes, I danced!!!...I now have another piece of that fabric to stash away for a special project....Awww!..it's the SIMPLE things that give us such pleasure in life or at least it is for me!!!

Until next time!!!...Many Blessings Wished For You!!!~~hugs,Jen

your rack looks great and that fabric is really great. I'm sure you'll come up with perfect use for it.

I have admired your trays since the first time I saw them. Wish they still sold them.

I love those trays!

Your story about the fabric made me smile. =] I delight greatly in small pleasures also and most times they can put me in a good mood for the whole day.
