Finding my way is harder when I am struggling with my Lupus, thankfully
I find the greatest joy in my true passion of turning the unwanted
into the sought after.
I am excited to be able to join another week of Cindy's Make it 4 Monday
party, I love Cindy she is simply so real and bursting with talent...
paint, sanding a perfect combo for
frames found that no one wanted
each piece has a story
and a part of my heart
I lose all of my worries when I am working
this old desk was the best 5.00 dollars spent yet
and got me through a really rough last week
I married it with my 2.00 dollar
yard sale chairs that I painted
and recovered with burlap
and as of now has the loves of my heart displayed
never underestimate the will
of a woman with a sander & staple gun
leave no stoned unturned...
Your word is a lamp unto my feet
and a light to my path
Psalms 119:105
the talent is endless at Cindy's
you won't want to miss it
Blessings to you

You are amazing Kate! The desk is gorgeous, and paired with the 2.00 chair well, that's just gorgeous! I always love your vignettes, you are such an artist. Take care and I hope you get some relief very soon. I think you are superwoman though, having accomplished all of that while not feeling well. My prayers are with you and yours, and I hope your mom's recovery is going well. Theresa xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou certainly have a talent for making things once ugly to beautiful! i hope you and your momma are feeling ok...thinking of you! xo
ReplyDeleteYou do know that you are in my daily prayers, don't you? I am so glad that you found something to help take your mind off of things as you do have a lot on your plate. Your desk is absolutely gorgeous and that chair is the perfect match. It is amazing what one can create and redo isn't it? Your home just keeps getting more beautiful with your talent:)Take care:)

This project turned out lovely, Kate! It always makes me feel better and eases my mind to create something or work on a project or artwork, too! Hope you are feeling better soon, I know when you are stressed it's hard not to have flares. Hope your mother is doing ok...I will keep you both in my prayers! XO Linda
ReplyDeleteI have to admit too that work is my positive in my life, my escape. No matter how much I'm dealing with personally, when I'm either working at the store, or paperpaper, or working at home, I DO feel so much better. It's good to keep the mind busy, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteTake care my friend, Sue
Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous! The desk is divine and the chair reminds me of my childhood chair that I posted this morning.

Kate you've got great taste and such talent. Wish you lived nearby, so that I could frequent your shop you sell at. Love the recent recreations of the desk and chairs - they are divine.
ReplyDeleteMissed not seeing your lovely blog of late, but I'm so happy to have been reminded again of its beauty, as well as your gifted writing.
May God bless you with a wonderful December of health, so that you may enjoy the Holidays with your family...
