Welcome to Anybody Home!

Here you will find scattered pictures from my point and shoot camera, random thoughts from my little world, treasured memories of days gone by, hopeful dreams of the days yet to come, and a bunch of ideas - because I've always got ideas!

A Delightful Package Arrived!

Bloggers are the best people, ever. Melissa, who has many many fabulous blogs (start at www.thosenorthernskies.blogspot.com) , sent me a package all the way from Minnesota filled with delightful things, many that she has made herself!



A 'wooden shoe' planter with a tulip on it! Oh, I LOVE that.
A beaded green bug, which looks lovely on my bird cage.


The black decoupaged box now joins my recipe box collection. I have a few more and plan to line them on a shelf once the kitchen gets an uplift.

A box! Melissa makes the coolest boxes from old record album covers. I used to have this album!


This picture is of one of the songs on the back. I sang the first verse to my mom, who responded by singing the second verse without any prompting. I asked her how she could remember that - after all - I was a child a VERY long time ago. She said that you just never forget songs.





I'm adding my favorite jewelry to this little bag, which matches my bathroom perfectly!










And, being a paper junky like I am, this tissue everything was wrapped in will appear time and time again in things I plan to make, once my art room gets sorted.
Oh, Melissa, thank you SO much, you are a blessing!

Oh! The bag matches perfectly!! How cool and even cooler that you had that album. I am so glad you liked everything and found homes for it all.

You are welcome.
