Happy new week 😊 My garden is still damp and traces of raindrops everywhere as we were blessed with one week of rain here in SoCal 🥰 Now everything looks so green, the sun is shining, birds are chirping, roses are blooming 💚 It’s a wonderful world and I have a feeling we will all get our “get out of jail” cards soon 😄

Have you ever tried making garlands out of dried flowers? I have so many dried roses from my garden and will have more now that it’s rose season again. Hmmm, maybe I can craft some 😷😷😷 made of dried rose petals! Or better yet, 🧻🧻🧻 Any suggestions 🧐🤪🤔 Or maybe I’m just going quoquo from the quarantine 😱😜🤣
Sending everyone some

It’s pouring rain here...tears from heaven 🌧 As we celebrate Holy Week and head to Easter Sunday, though many of us cannot be physically together to celebrate, spiritually we all are here, connected, believing that Jesus our savior will rise and deliver us from all evil! No, He has not forsaken us 🙏

Hello April! Hello World! Bonjour Paris! Oh how I’ve missed your hustle and bustle! Oh how I miss traveling! I took this time lapse in 2017 when I was in a bus returning from visiting Monet’s Garden back to Paris. That was the last time I’ve been there! And now we’re told to stay home for our safety, feels like a prison sentence, which makes me realize not to take things for granted and just to really enjoy life to the fullest!!! Life is meant to be enjoyed and experienced and shared, not restricted, sadly though it’s not the world we’re currently living in 😢 Wherever you are in this world right now, be safe and stay healthy! Soon it will be open again 😊

By the way, Amazon Prime just released a competition show called Making the Cut with Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn (love him) similar to Project Runway. It was filmed in Paris and it shows lots of places in the city. If you love Paris like I do, worth watching the show 🥰

I’m not really a big collector of pink enamelware but when I found this antique Pretty in Pink French Lavabo, my heart skipped a beat 💗💓💖 These type of lavabos aka water reservoir with basin were used for storing water for washing and if stored outside, the sun would keep the water tank warm. But as much as I love this pretty in pink, I’ve decided to list it in my Etsy shop for sale now 😊

Happy 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ 🥳🎊🎉 It sounds so futuristic doesn’t it, especially if you’re an oldie like me born in the year 19- - LOL 😂 Well here we are in a new year, a new decade and quoting C.S. Lewis, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream” Cheers to your new goals, your new dreams whatever they may be 🥂👏🥳👍

For every sale I make online via , I often wondered what my customers' homes look like. After over 600 sales, with 95% shipped nationwide and worldwide, with the occasional request for local pickup, for the first time I had made a delivery at a customer's doorstep and saved her shipping cost. As a bonus, I got to see her home 😊 within 10 miles.
