There is NO focus here....

This post is a jumble of ideas - one thing does not lead to the next....

...that's how my mind works lately!!

I was cleaning out the photos on my computer, got distracted and ended up here.

So here goes....

***********

I have this little table that my dad bought in Italy in the late 60's.  It is actually a music box as he was a big collector..


...and I placed my HUGE MacKenzie-Childs tray on it to make a larger end table.  It worked in a pinch for company when I needed an extra end table!


It wasn't my original idea - - I saw it on another blog and stole the idea!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just got this in the mail....do they have industrial spies in my local liquor store?


I love jewelry, but doubt I will be wearing this pin!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am thinking about having this phrase put on a t-shirt....


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I just bought this....


...I really wanted this chair, but I couldn't get Sarah out of it....


...and she looked better sitting in it!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Love my new necklace.....and yes, it is a crown, so happy someone finally acknowledged my nobility!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is how I will spend my weekend....I will start with Tiffany's catalog and if not too depressed after perusing through it, I will set myself into a deeper depression by looking through perfectly decorated, organized homes in all of these mags:


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, there you have it....a nonsensical blog post.

I must work on staying focused!

  2. One of my favorite posts in blogland-those bits and pieces of life. I am so saving that saying about being late and copying it somehow. lol

    I think you should wear that pin if you go to church. lol Put it right next to some kind of political support pin!

    Love your new MC piece and Sarah looks lovely in that chair.

    Hope you have a wonderful weekend. xo Diana

  3. Your highness...love your new necklace. :):) I love your friend Sarah's cute shoes. I love pretty shoes, and have major shoe envy when I see them, as I can no longer wear them more than an hour. LOL. The big tray is wonderful. I can see it being very handy. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  4. Oh, this is a great post! I love bits and bobs of ideas and thoughts. That's how I'm functioning these days myself. That comfy chair is calling to me. Wish I could select which fabrics it is covered in. Are you listening, MacKenzie-Childs? You are definitely the Queen of our TT group! Love the tray become side table. Perfect solution! Tito's is made right here in Austin, TX. I promise I didn't turn in your name! 😋
    Love, love, love the new piece!!!!!

  5. Lol, love all of these. The t-shirt - I need that! Sarah looks great in that chair - SOMEBODY needs to buy it. The crown charm, fitting; the Tito Taster charm, maybe when you wear the t-shirt. Nice table - we've done something similar, but that canister is beautiful.

  6. Very fun Patti! Love your new MKC piece! Emily told me she was really overwhelmed in that store!! Psst...that might be kinda bad that the liquor people sent you a gift 🤣 I wish I could get the wine distributor to stop at my house...

  7. Love this post! The sentiment on the bag definitely needs to be on a tee-shirt. The chair is fabulous...they should offer other fabrics. The tray is definitely fabulous and I love how you've used it. Your crown necklace is what we all should be wearing. Taking nothing away from Mary Engelbreit, but aren't we all the "Queen of Everything"?
