OK, now I know I can post pictures. The above picture of the rose is a shot from my garden last year. I'll post more in the coming days.
Do you enjoy the holidays? I do, although not as much as I did when my daughters were nearby. But I still decorate and at least hubby and I can enjoy it! Right now I'm all decked out for the 4th of July. Although you can't see it well , this is a patriotic dress from the 40's with a vintage crepe paper and cardboard hat. The dress with the prominent stars on it is something I made after losing an auction for an antique patriotic costume on Ebay. It's not an exact copy but it's close enough for me!
Somehow I'm not getting the pictures where I want them to be, please bear with me! The long white gown is something I picked up at a thrift store and embellished,ha!
Well darn! These pictures are just going wherever they want to!!! I'll just put some up to give you an idea of how I decorate for the 4th......
I see that I don't have any handy for the outside but I'll try to rectify that soon!
Too bad the 4th is in July,ha! It's gotten to where it's so hot and humid that BBQing isn't much fun anymore. But I know that if I ask him to, dear hubby will suffer thru the heat and do the grilling. I have to admit that I haven't even planned what to have on the 4th this year, I need to get on that!
Well, it's really late and I guess I'd best be off to bed. Sweet dreams everyone!
