here are 3 of the photographs I will soon upload propa to the Martha Stewart American Made contest starting in a couple of weeks...

Thrift Score of the Week: Vintage Enid Collins "Parvan" Purse :)

I love Enid Collins purses. Made in Texas. Jeweled fun. I spotted this cutey in a cart by the register whilst standing in line to check out...suprise treasure at the g-h-e-t-t-o thrift :)

1960s Enid Collins "Parvan" Bucket Bag

(and double-sided to boot!)

Trying to link up with Apron Thrift Girl and Thrift Share Monday...seriously need to spend some time figuring out how to blog proper. (My picture didn't load on the "linked in" on ATG page, no clue why. Like I said, I need to spend some time educating myself on blogging).

Newborn Cardinals...

Whilst trying to figure out Google+ and linking my phone photos to my blog, I discovered these old photos of baby cardinals born outside our back door. Dang they were cute. They were Mother's Day babies a number of years ago...Still haven't figured out the linking :( I really want to post to my blog but I can't seem to get the hang of it. 

Artfire Pinterest Contest - Get Your Crafty On!

I love Pinterest. I love Artfire. I love crafting. I love a contest. I love winning contests. I love winning craft supplies. So when I saw a contest sponsored by Artfire, giving away craft supplies, I couldn't help myself from creating another Pinterest board, Getting Crafty:

Good luck. To me lol. And you.

Keep on Trying...

I tried to update my blog (over and over and over) but now it looks uglier than ever. All I wanted to do was change the header picture and this is what I ended up with!? Apparently I need some tutoring in editing my blog's appearance etc. Or more patience while I learn through trial and error. I'd also like to add an area on the sidebar where I can post links to my western belt lawnchair write-ups/mentions. I can't seem to accomplish this either. Seems like I could put a picture of the website's logo and when you click on the logo, you go to the chair write up on their website. I'm going to try to figure this out right now...Yay! I kind of accomplished what I wanted...lawnchair spottings on righthand sidebar...more to come as I've been requested to go on an ice cream run. Then bed :)
