The Rainy Days of Summer

Hello Friends,
     Summers in full swing here in the deep south, heat, heat and more heat.
But we can be thankful for rain, and lots of it.

Wish I could send some to those of you suffering. 

I haven't posted in a few weeks mostly because nothing was there...
I do mean nothing.  Do you ever just not think of anything worth
posting?  I've been busy just not taking the time to blog.
This afternoon I played with a few new vignettes and
there it was, finally an idea.  
What the heck I well bore you with my bargain and poor photos.

Recently out visiting thrift stores, I purchased this white pedestal dish for $1.00.


Good deal, the only problem was it came in a few pieces.  After
opening a brand new tube of E 6,000 and doing the do its almost as good as new.
 Why is it the super duper glue comes in this stupid tube and
it will be dried out the next time I need it.
Why can't they come up with a better container.
Oh yeah back to the cloche,

What I loved was this cloche fit perfectly into the dish.


Cloches are always an easy way to change things around.
It's tucked in the dry sink in the dining room.

I played with this old farm table setting,

Today is the feast day of the Assumption of the Blessed Mother
I think this is very appropriate.

The one Santos hand is holding
the smallest of my Sacred Hearts.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend, 
Blessings, Kathy

IT'S CLOCHE TIME! OH MY!

Good Morning Friends,

    I was so excited this morning when I received an email from Patty, she is joining Marty to host a Cloche Party....

They had me on the word Cloche.
Cloches are always featured in my decorating no matter which room they just seem to fit in.  It is like playing house, always rearranging the displays. (Reading this back makes me ponder the idea that maybe just maybe I have to much time on my hands?


The largest cloche has been on my table for a few weeks,
it's host to a wonderful french statue of Our Lady,
The Blessed Mother.

By Her is a piece of art, by Prayers on the Side,
prayer beads and pottery cross, super size for big intentions.



This cloche is the smallest one of all.
In it is a tiny statue of St. Anthony holding
the Baby Jesus with an antique baby rosary.
In the back ground is a tiny chapel, another piece of
art from the girls at "Prayers on the Side".
We carry their work at The Visitation Gift Shop where
I hang my hat a couple of days a week. As you can guess
I work for stuff.




The far left cloche is home to an antique
crucifix and antique hand door knockers
"Knock, Knock, Knocking on Heaven's Door"


The remaining cloches are used in a
Mad Tea Party, for this weekend, hosted by 
The Fanciful Twist. 




                 I have a sleeping problem.....it's called pinterest.                            Do you find yourself lost in the images?
