I know I've been absent, again, for a while. I'm working on putting together a collection of cottage style furnishings to sell. I'm refurbishing old pieces, styling everything into little vignettes, and serving tea, out of my garage. It's kind of like having a garage band but without all the instruments and groovy clothing, ha. I'll photograph the progress and blog it for your viewing pleasure. Besides all of that, I've been enjoying the special energy of Autumn. The pace seems so different and so sweet…

Above and below are my offerings of puppy love! I found the little bulldog recently at a thrift shop; where else!

Staying with the theme of love (and puppies, the song is by the Sick Puppies!), please endulge in watching this lovely video, Free Hugs Campaign

Take heart, there is much beauty in the world, still.

    Hi Courtney!
    In fact, I used to have a vintage clothing shop in Santa Cruz. I’ve never really liked the shopkeeper part of it so much, but more the treasure hunting.
    Furniture will be a nice switch, just in my garage temporarily. I’ll let you know when I have some photos.

    I love this video. I learned about through a co-op america business email list. I smiled during the entire viewing of it. What an amazing man.
