Random Wednesday

Some random items I saw that I am thinking about making. 

If I was made to go camping, I think I could camp in this.

Some humor for today.

Have a happy over the hump day!

 

My newest craft projects...

My newest craft projects I did yesterday. Started out with plain wooden birdhouses and mini rolling pins from Hobby Lobby and Dollar Tree. Painted them and put scrapbook paper on. Then I put some string & ribbon bows with a little button on them. I am very pleased with the way they look.

I have this little galvanized bucket from Hobby Lobby and I put 3 rolling pins in for every holiday.

I sat one of the bird houses on the books on my coffee table. I haven't decided where to put these other one yet.

I am happy with the way it all turned out.

Happy Labor Day

 Happy Labor Day to those who have worked or are still working to keep our country moving. 

Sunday's Psalms

I'm going to start a new series for Sunday mornings. I am going to quote one of my favorite verses from Psalms each Sunday I'm going to call this series Sunday's Psalms. The first one is Psalms 46:10.

Fall has exploded at Mamaw's Place...

We are entering my favorite time of year. I call it "Decorating Season". I'm a fanatic about decorating for each of the upcoming months. So tomorrow is September 1. For me, that means I decorate for fall. Just thought I'd take you on a tour of my fall decor. I did include a close up on my Steampunk teapot since I made it from a Dollar Tree blue plastic pumpkin. I thought it was pretty cool. So here's my favorite decor spots. 

Hope you liked "visiting" my home. Feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts. I love hearing from my readers.

 

My random thoughts today...

I need a new living room set. I am some blues and grays in my living room and a few light - medium brown items. I saw this set the other day. It was super soft and comfort. When I tried it out, I didn't want to get up. 

 

And the pillows have every color in my living room. I think this may be the one. 

The new 2025 Happy Planners are out and I went to check them out at Hobby Lobby. I fell in love with this one. It is the dashboard layout, which I have never used before. This may be the one.

Haybales and cornstalks @ Walmart. Fall is almost here y'all.

I made this display for my bathroom in the spring from a galvanized container at Dollar Tree.

Decided to give it a facelift for fall. I love it. 

Well, there just some fun stuff for Friday. Have a blessed day.

Fourteen months

 

My sweet babies. Meet Gracie (left) and Goose (right). They are a sister and brother from the same litter. He was the first born and she was the fourth from a litter of five. The lady I got them from still has the other three siblings, all black and white with a small spot of orange calicos. Goose is an orange tabby and the mom was a calico. Gracie however is a Diluted Calico. Which means she has the grays and some orange blended in. It is a special rare breed and only 1 in every 1000 calicos have this coloring. They were born April 13, 2023 and they came to live in their forever home around the last week of June 2023.

Cats are considered kittens until they are 2 years old and they are just 16 months. So technically they are kittens but to me they are my babies. They get along so good. But they also rat each other out. If one is doing something they shouldn't the other comes to me and just stares at me until I follow them. It's hysterical. They have their favorite places to lay, but the majority of the time they lay within a few feet of each other or on the couch together. It's so adorable. I love my fur babies.

They are definitely house cats. I did have them fixed but they still have their claws. They don't ever go outside because I don't really want them to. But if I open the door so they can come out to the porch, they stare outside and dart back in and hide. They are so much fun to watch. 

Leave me a comment if you are a fur baby parent. I would love to hear about your babies.
