Tis’ the season! First market is at home this Saturday 10-4pm in the heated greenhouses @chamberlainacres garden center. Good eats, treats, wreaths and plants plus the best makers in our region.

I’ll be bringing fresh pots, lots of hanging planters and ornaments! New this year, consider shopping online in advance and pick up your order at market. Local pick up at my home is always another option. I’m also happy to pack and ship your market purchases. Just ask!

Whatever you do definitely take a look at the @elmirahandmademarket page to discover and follow some talented independent small businesses.

Make merry!

FINALLY!!! Thanks lamp guy for making this happen.

FINALLY!!! Thanks lamp guy for making this happen. 🥰 This one is a keeper. I made it to match my wild blue couch, red IKEA table and Lulu. And can we talk about this light bulb?! It has 16 colors, 2 whites, 5 light modes and is dimmable. Target find! 🙌🏻 Btw their lampshades didn’t work with the two lamps I had wired. I’ll reveal lamp no. 2 when I find a shade. Lamping ain’t easy.

This was a fun challenge for me. Of course the color version is the OG. The floral pattern is a perfect match for this vintage glass bowl design. Both are now listed online.

Happy Saturday!

This book 📖 was my go to source for inspiration

This book 📖 was my go to source for inspiration prior to Pinterest. I’ve 🎨🖌 the dumb-dumbs several times having never read the actual text which is quite funny:

“Though never considered high style…these are the terms used in the 20th century American textile industry but each era and country has its equivalents. Dumb-dumbs because the motifs are so inoffensive as to make no statement at all; ditsies (middle column) because they’re funny little things; and bread-and-butter (first column) because they always sell.”

From Textile Designs by Susan Meller and Joost Elfers
