My Saturday at the Market

Hello again
I hope you have all been as lucky as myself and had a wonderful weekend!
I had a relaxing Friday night, went to bed early like a good girl.
Saturday I got up early did some yard saling then went to the market in a charming little town called Sackville in New Brunswick.
I had never gone to this particular market before, and I'm here to tell you that I dout I will be missing to many Saturday mornings at the market this summer!

I Loved the atmosphere in the air....and the music in the background..

The street was lined with local produce,

interesting and beautiful crafts,

Making yarn....really neat..

It was misting out a little so she had to keep the yarn under the table so it wouldn't get wet, she told me she would have to take it home ...unravel it all and hang it to dry so it wouldn't go bad because it is a natural fiber.

I thought these were really neat..

I got my hands on some freshly made sushi for a little snack

I Made my way over to the cutest little shop ever. This place was filled with litttle treasores!!!

Sooo much to look at,

On my way out I passed some interesting reading ;)

On my way to the camp to relax with some wine and goodies....

Have a great night!

Ciao from the East Coast

Finally finished one of my chairs!!!

Hello again!

You might remember in one of my older posts that I was re finishing an old chair....

I Loved the chairs to begin with but they were kinda dingy and dark looking.
Soooo I decided to start a project.

This is how it looked before....

Told ya....Its not the best lookin old chair but has lots of promise!!
To begin I took off the old cushion...

.........

Then started stripping off the old stain....

These are my supplies..

and this is my stripped chair

Once I got the hang of it, everything went a little faster.

THEN, I got out the ol WHITE paint!!!! (this is my favorite part)

I painted the chair all up and re covered my chair cushion....

Drum roll Please.....

LOVE LOVE LOVE How this turned out!!!

Please leave me a not to tell me what you think!!

Now to relax after all that hard work!!

Ahhhh the life!

Good bye for now from the East Coast

My dream craft rooms

Hello all!
I've always loved crafting, when I was a little girl I would be in my glory with some construction paper, sparkles, crayons, ribbons etc..
Now that I am all grown up...I still love it!!


If I had it my way I would combine a little from each of these craft rooms and make my All grown up dream craft room!!

I got these pictures off pinterest....

I love this funnel idea!!! so cool!

I could spend hours in any of these crafty little rooms!!
Until then I will keep on dreaming and crafting.

Happy Sunday from the East Coast!!

Had a SPA day!!....What do you do to unwind?

Hello again!

So I booked myself a facial, manicure and pedicure this Saturday.
Can I just say RELAXING!!!

There really is nothing like having a day to yourself. It's so important to take care of yourself...inside and out. I always say .."If Momma aint Happy...Nobody's happy" It's the truth.

Anyway...here is where I spent my Saturday afternoon....

Yup...looks pretty nice huh??

I needed this day to myself....So glad I got it :)
This is my one of many favorite things to do to unwind.

Well thats all for now! I would love to hear about what you do to unwind..

Good evening from the East Coast!

Beautiful Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day to all the Fathers...and Mothers that do the job of two!

I think it's so important to take the time to reflect and honour our Dads, Moms, Husbands and friends on these days. In my opinion, there is no greater compliment anyone can give you then to say your a great parent.

I went on a lovely dinner with my dad today, just the two of us.

We went to a place called Bare Bones

I love this place! It's not just a meal, it truly is an experience.
The decor is amazing..

I just love all the treasures in here

In my opinion there is nothing better than old books!

Enough about all that though....The real show stopper was the Beautifuly displayed food..

My Salad with raspberry balsamic dressing and home made goats cheese...

Our main course good ol Fish n chips...with a dalce garnish

mmmmmmmmmmm soooooo goooood!

Saving the best for last.....

Drum roll please....

How cool are these dessert menus??

ok enough teasing here are our desserts we had...

I'm So greatful for this beautiful day with ma Daddy!

Happy Fathers Day!!
