                       We have flurries, we have ice but no real snow

 I did get out and enjoy the day, driving to Saluda I found the Brass Latch, this lady knows how to display beautiful fabrics, lace, hats and all things beautiful clothes






 As I was checking out I couldn't help but touch these beautiful sweaters and scrafs





 So many fabrics, buttons, and beautiful knick nacks


So many things to look at



 Look at these beautiful laces, all color of creamy white

I can't wait to show you what I cam going to do with the fabrics and laces I bought!

Lace Adventures


My Spring Adventure started out with a little snow.  Oh yes snow but I made the best of it because the sun was out and I can bundle up.  I had seen some beautiful Lace in Saluda on our Family trip last week and wanted to go back to get it after the Gentleman checked with his wife on the price.
I to make 2 trips because I left my card at home and had to get cash (I was beginning to wonder if I was destined to get that lace).  I was rewarded with these beautiful pictures

This on reminds me of my sweet girls.  One has a little mischievous smile!  And don't you love those shoes.Here is that beautiful lace!  And no I didn't get the basket (what was I thinking), lace, lace

And seltzer bottles

In town I stopped to look around.  The Hardware store, PACE, has been kept in the family since it opened.  They have amazing collections and real Hardware to buy.



Do you remember Green Stamps?

I am starting on my Spring Mantle but took time out for St. Patty's Day

A little Spring coming our way!

Are there days when you feel like the world around you is enormous?

Is life rushing by you?

Take a deep breath, look up
Pause and look around, the beauty of the moment is all around you



Just look

 We had such a beautiful day at Pearson's Falls in Tryon

Good night sky, good night water
Good night moon
Have a wonderful weekend everyone, pause and enjoy the moment!  Di
