Goose Berry Patch Cookbook Sale!

I am a sucker for Goose Berry Patch Cookbooks.  So I was delighted to find the Fall 09 edition on sale at Cracker Barrel tonight for 50% off.  It's rare to find a Goose Berry for half off. I bought all 4 of them that were on the shelf.  They'll make great gifts.  The cookbook includes ideas, personal stories and delicious recipes.  Can't wait to curl up and read it like a good novel!

I am posting this to Finding Fabulous, My Romantic Home, and The Shabby Nest.

My Little Boy's Vintage Room

This is Prince O's Room.  It's a Vintage themed room, although tried not to overdo the theme, just wanted that antique look.  We used old cars, toys and teddy bears to capture the look.  And here it is....

Antique bedroom set bought on Craigslist.  Thought about painting it but the wood look speaks masculinity.

My favorite piece in the whole room is this antique amoire which I bought at an antique store.  No room for it anywhere else in the house but I think it matches perfectly in here!                                                                                        
                                                                                 
    

Love the details!

The reading corner.  Old Truck pillow from Pottery Barn.  And a good ole TEXAS pillow thrown in the mix (my birth state.)

New Flowers for Foyer

This is the new floral arrangement I made for the foyer.  Just  bought an existing container with greenery from Jo Ann's for $20 and then added a little height and glam with flowers and feathers.  Mr and Mrs W seem to be standing proudly.  I guess they like the change too.
