So whats keeping me busy already? Well mainly this handsome young fellow right here.
'SMILES' love of my life :)
Sam starts his first year of school On February 4th so I'm clinging to him like glue right now. I honestly cannot bear to think of what it will be like to have my little mate away from me all day, 5 days a week....breaks my heart (queue the violin music).
I'll be the mum clinging to the gate, crying hysterically on his first day (oh did i say on his first day? I meant his first YEAR..LOL) NO JOKE ! I may need an intervention!
Next...well I'm working on some new paintings and some furniture (for me and for my website). Plus my website needs and EXTREME MAKEOVER...the list goes on and on and on.
Here's a couple of pretties i finished.
Picked this gorgeous piece up for $5.00 at the local St Vinnies (they love me there, and vice verse). Potential PLUS huh??? YOU BETCHA SWEET BACKSIDE !
FROM THAT TO THIS.....
It's definitely a keeper so i thought i better be good and do up my timber one and sell it.
So of course Shane says "Oh i like that one better"
WHAT ??? NOOOOOOO !!!!!! Don't make it harder for me to choose!
Uh...honey for future reference...please don't confuse and irritate a woman wielding a staple gun...! best to stay on her good side. LOL.
So anyroad, that's a bit of what I'm up to. Busy busy like a little bee, that's me.
I PROMISE i am going to make it round to visit you all...even if it takes me all day and night ( i may have to start drinking coffee...Yikes).
I hope you all had THE BEST AND SAFEST CHRISTMAS' AND NEW YEARS. Thankyou for spending another year with me ! I hope this year will be full of pink, frou frou, friendship and more 'wet your pants' kind of laughter !
Love You All A Whole Bunch !
Pink Kisses (yep, for another year)

Happy New Year! ADORABLE bench. Is there a proper term for that? I like them both, but love the first one. The iron work is just stunning. Yep, I'm a gate clinger. Always have been, always will. I always hate when school breaks are over. *sigh*
What a find! You did a great job with it. Enjoy the rest of the holidays with Sam, but enjoy seeing him grow and learn at school too. He'll have a great time and look forward to time with mum too :-)

Both of them are gorgeous! I don't think I can choose! Sorry...
Hi sweetie! I have missed you so much! I can just imagine how you are dreading sweet little Sam going to school :( I am the same way with my little guys. He will have so much fun though Shann!
I LOVE the new piece!!! You did such a beautiful job on that! I just love the fabric and how you have it displayed!!
Love you,
Amy
Happy new year Shannon - didnt it sneak up on us?? I cried the entire day my oldest daughter started grade 1 so you are not alone there! Love your new bargain purchase, it looks fabulous, Mel xxx
"Fabulastic"
Happy New Year to you!
Yes a little disturbing when they start school....but Sam will always be your 'lil boy, doesn't mean he's going to forget you just cause he's at school, in fact I found it quite the opposite, they sort of needed me more once they started school...they needed to come home from school and be mothered...awh it's a great time Shann
Shannon,
"I" was the one crying for weeks on end when the kids went to school! Look how I cried for Marc! Oh I so love the newest creations!!! Wish i could find one here! Yes, I have indeed missed you to pieces!!! Now sweet Momma of Sam stop by I need to big favor, no actually a teeny one! Write soon, Love,lori
I love the bench you recovered. Absolutely beautiful! What a terrific find.

OOh i am loving the new banner and the new seat,i mean i thought i liked the old one but i looove the new one.Sam is gonna miss you too.
Hi Shannon,
That bench is so pretty and I hope it's not so hard when your little guy goes off. Hope you are having a great start to the New Year!
Happy New Year to you and your sweet family Shann.
Those benches are so, so pretty!!
It will be fun when Sam goes to school, there are so many ways you can help out in class, so I am sure you will be the first Mum on the helpers list!!

Oh both repurposed & recovered phone tables are fabulous! Enjoy the next 2 weeks with Sam! and remember most teachers love parent help with reading and writing! But maybe give him a little chance to settle in at first!
