A Special Gift, A Tip, and a Giveaway!
Hi Everyone--
My house is all decorated for fall from the front door throughout all the living spaces...pure fun! And, my daughter Jenny just bought this precious scarecrow "Welcome Sign" for me...I love it and had to share it with you!
I also want to tell you a quick story...
The other day, I went to pick up some furniture...I was at the back of Ashley Furniture (near the pick-up window) and started walking around...when to my amazement, there were various tiny pieces of hardware that were on the ground that had rusted...I was in full swing picking them up so I could start a collection of "rust" elements for my art...If you live near a big furniture store with a pick-up bay at the back, you might want to try it too...I was in "rust" heaven!!! lol
Love,
Cindy

Hi Cindy, hope you are enjoying your visit with Jenny.
Do you know how often I look at things on the ground and wonder if I should pick them up and take them home to make something with? HA!
I love that sparkly friend card you received. So nice to receive surprises from sweet friends.
I am so tired so off to bed now. Best wishes, Tammy
What a sweet couple of scarecrows she gave you, Cindy! Adorable! Thanks for the rusty tip--I'll have to check that out this week!
Hope your Sunday is lovely & restful...

Cindy,
You are cracking me up gathering the rust items, now that sounds like me....
Such a cute couple...I love scarecrows :)

My Grandpa when I was a teenager (long time ago), would make you stop if you were driving with him, so he could go through someone's trash!!! He found many treasures! Darling scarecrows!!
what a wonderful gift to receive.
I love the looks people give when they see someone (like us) giddily scooping up seemingly 'useless' items from the ground! I found a huge coffee can of rusted screws and bolts at a yard sale for 10 cents, it was right by a dumpster, I think it was ready to be disposed of!you should have see the lady's face when I asked the price!
Love the welcome Scarecrows...that was very sweet of her. Perfect for Fall. Hope your having a fabulous weekend....
Hi Cindy...I hope you are having a wonderful Sunday. Your scarecrows are so cute. They are my favorite Fall decor item...that and pumpkins. How great you found rusty items...I have no need to go to a furniture store - wish I did!! but that is a great idea. Talk to you soon.....
Love that scarecrow! You are so funny finding your ultimate treasures at the back of the furniture store! Thanks for sharing. Anne
Your scarecrows are gorgeous Cindy. Have been stopped from picking up rusty parts as my husband says I am rubbish collector. He should know as they don't come much rustier than him.....oooh naughty naughty.......lol xx
I like the gift that Jenny bought for you. ...veyr nice :) :) :) I can just imagine your delight at finding all those rusted pieces. You must definitely post a photo once you decide what to do with it :) :) :) Have a great weekend...and may all your "rusty" dreams come true :) :) :) Love and hugs from Oregon, Heather :)
Your scarecrows are so cute Cindy! I'm like you in that I pick up stuff all the time. I bet you were in heaven. lol

Hi Cindy, Love the scarecrow welcome, I am a little slow about finishing my fall decor. Hope to see more of yours. Thank you for stopping by and for taking the time to leave me such a sweet comment.
Blessings,
Sue
Such a fun gift from your daughter, Cindy! I'm glad you're having a great visit!
Hello friend..
Your scarecrows are adoreable! I can't wait to see what you do with the rusty hardware and what you purchased from Ashley.. Have a fantastic week!
Hugs,

What a cute scarecrow couple, Cindy! Enjoy your visit!
Hi Cindy,
I love the scarecrows! Just getting started this week on my Fall decorating. A little late but better than not at all!
xo, Karen
Cindy~ You are to funny. No furntiture stores like that around here. You received some great stuff this week and very deserving I have to add. Will say a prayer for your friend right now.
Thanks for the visit too. I have been a busy bee. Now I just have to learn how to split time between computer and crafting. Seems I get on computer no crafting gets done and vice versa...
