Spotlight at Junk Chic Cottage

When Kris invited me to share about myself on the spotlight at Junk Chic Cottage, I was thrilled.  I am Di from Cottage-Wishes

I started my blog when I moved to Asheville, North Carolina.  I wanted to create a blog about everything I would want in a Cottage and called it Cottage-Wishes!

My wish was to create a wonderful home to share with my grandboys, hubby, girls and their husbands.   I have been married to my wonderful hubby for 40 years.  We have been to waterfalls, parks and mountains.

 

Along the way I have shared my adventures around and about town.  I have tried new things from my blogging friends and learned alot about myself.  I try to encourage fun in my family.  My grandboys are keeping hubby and me young.

We have two (yes two) yorkie puppies...we just couldn't separate them and leave one behind.  They have gone from 2 pounds to 10 pounds, hopefully they will stop there.

 Four sweet boys that call me Granon (Gran - non)  

 I love shabby chic, nordic and french style! 

 I am truly blessed

 I have found and copied many good ideas from my blogging friends

 I have way too many collections and do like blue and white

 I love to paint with Annie Sloan Chalk paint

I hope you will stop by and chat and let's share our adventures!

Thank you Kris for inviting me over!

Saturday Spotlight

   I am one happy blogger!  I am spotlighted at Junk Chic Cottage.  What a thrill for me to meet so many great people.  I have been a busy person lately.  We are putting our house on the market and hoping to build a small house next to our daughter.  We did take time to celebrate Ro's 9th Birthday.  We went to Montreat, NC, his wish was to have a picnic!

 We had our picnic out of a vintage basket I picked up at an estate sale.  The basket is from England about the 60's.  It came with silverware, plates, cups and containers.  I packed vegtables and sandwiches, fruit and carrot cake cupcakes.

We found a beautiful spot under the trees by the water

We had a wonderful party

Sharing with your cousins is even better

 Next we went on Lake Susan and took a spin in a paddle boat

 Our day was full of joy and this little guy took a deep breath and said this is the best day of my life.

How can you beat that for a great day!  Thank you Kris for letting me share a bit of myself today!  Di  Please take time to visit two sweet bloggers Susan @ Must Love Junk and Kris @ JunK Chic Cottage

 The Biltmore Estate flowers were in full bloom with beautiful flowers
