Spring is Coming

 It's was a wonderful Friday and Saturday here is Asheville, oh course it was cold but just beautiful...and then came Sunday cold and rainy but hubby was off and we shared a wonderful brunch
                                come join me on a walk ...
                                                  Beautiful spring colors
This shop beckoned me in 



                                Beautiful items and wonderful lighting



 I want this wreath over my fireplace...

           Rules to live by BE NICE



 The next place down the street was Porter and Prince, a treat
                                                        Care for a bath of flowers?



                                                                  Or a bed of herbs


                              Check out these lights and rooms





                                                    Butterflies






                      Oh yes sweet darling, I will always be there 



My dreams are filled with dance
 AND MY HEART FILLED WITH EXPECTATION AS WE GO INTO THIS WEEK OF EASTER
Wishing you a wonderful week!

My Corner of the Room

My grandmother, Lucy, taught me many things.  One thing was her love of reading.  I created a corner in the master bedroom to enjoy some of my favorite books.



I arranged my favorite chair and put a stool with some old sewing drawers with my concrete reading lamp.  My mannequin sits on my vintage suitcase overlooking my corner.

A cup of tea with a splash of milk while I look through my favorite books


 I have enjoyed this spot in the afternoon with the sun shining in

 Such a relaxing way to spend the afternoon, a good book with my feet up
I hope your weekend was wonderful and the luck of the Irish be with you this week.  Di

Dreaming and Wishing

BELIEVE
 You need to believe in your dreams
 A Wish is your deepest desires of your heart
A garden to shower you with nutrition and beauty

 Your beautiful family, friends and loved ones gathered around 
 Especially true to believing and wishing is going to your dream places
 A dream completed becomes a dream for you and others
 To create for your loved ones are even more special

 A postcard from me to you is dare to dream, dare to expand your horizons and share your joy



                                                                 B E L I E V E


YES, KEEP BELIEVING
I love dreaming and wishing and when I can fulfill my plans and it makes my family joyful, it's all worth it.  I got to see the joy in my hubby, daughter and son-in laws faces when we saw the Eiffel Tower and enjoy the city for days.  It was way to short but I know we will be back again...I can't wait.

I wanted to thank a fellow blogger, Rhonda at A Little Bit French  for her wonderful Etsy shop.  I recently purchased a packet of her pictures and beautiful bits.  Her work is just beautiful and made my Ode to Paris a masterpiece.

                             Keep on Dreaming my Friends,
                                          Di
