Happy New Year to All!

12/30/2017

I want to wish you all a very Happy New Year!!

It is the time when we take stock of the past year, look back on what has been, what we could have done differently, and also what went well.  It is also an opportunity to look ahead to 2018 and think about what we want for the near future. 

As you all know I had a very eventful year, in fact it felt as if a tornado blew in and rearranged everything.  But now I am settled and looking forward to many changes for 2018. There will be no more pomegranates.  It is time for some new tradi
tions!

There will also be some changes on the blog. ;)

Wishing Everyone a Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to pop in for a moment and wish everyone a very Merry and most Blessed Christmas. And very Happy Holidays!

​Too often we forget about the true meaning of Christmas and get all caught up in the other aspects of the holidays. And it is always a good idea to try and slow down a bit and savor the moment.  That is what I am planning to do with my family and I hope you are too.  New home and new traditions!  

Again, I thank you all for your support throughout the year!  Enjoy this most special of days.

How to Create Pretty Holiday Decor with an Old Tray

12/18/2017

A few weeks ago I shared my wreath with you.  It was such a great wreath and oh so full ... in fact those bells were so full that I couldn't close my storm door on them.  So I had to move them elsewhere. 

Today I'm here to share how I made them look so lovely and bright,  and where I put them to make a pretty holiday decor with an old tray.

Welcome to our Eighty-Seventh Sweet Inspiration Link Party.

I have been really enjoying my time getting ready for the holidays this year.  No stress.  And I know it will be a great Christmas for us all.  I want to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. And since we are going to be taking a break I should also wish you a Happy New Year.  We will be back on January 5th and this time with 2 features each.  The party will be open for two weeks so you will have plenty of time to link up your goodies. 

​The party starts on Fridays 11am EST or 4 pm GMT and runs until Tuesday. By joining us every week you will be able to grow your blog and gather inspiration from so many others who link up to our party. We hope you will join us every week to share and inspire with your projects and creations.

We will be visiting all of you who link up with us and sharing, pinning all that good stuff. We really do appreciate your visits. ​​​​​​​​​

     I'm Mary and I recently  moved to New York from beautiful Greece.  I like to re-purpose and up-cycle  anything that is old or looks like junk.  Join me as we use our creativity to spark some life into old things.  And do it frugally!  You will also see lots of photography of my Greece and New York.
