Those Who Bring Sunshine...


"Those who bring sunshine
into the lives of others cannot
keep it from themselves."


~ James M. Barrie ~



I made these tags to price late summer & fall items
in my booth. It's nice to have a few different sizes...
Enjoy!

Pitcher & Simple Country Bouquet



I love enamelware pitchers. Add
a simple country bouquet, and you
have a real thing of beauty.


I'm patiently waiting for the perfect pitcher, so I can
have a bouquet like this on my kitchen table. Until then,
 milk glass vases and mason jars will do just fine.

Queen Anne's Lace


"The great lesson is
that the sacred is in the ordinary,
that it is to be found in one's
daily life..."

~ Abraham Maslow ~



Printable sets of large and small tags, featuring
my favorite wildflower. Click here to read
a little more about the Berry Seed Company.


Printable Queen Anne's lace stationery (8.5 x 11").



I love Queen Anne's lace. At first glance, it looks simple... but
when you really look, you notice all the beautiful, intricate patterns.
I wonder how anyone could call it a weed. It's welcome in all my flower
beds, and makes itself at home right next to irises, daylilies, and roses.
I don't think I'll ever tire of seeing it bobbing in the breeze...
whether it's along a country road, or outside my kitchen window.
