Want to present to you all the plants that I've had the privilege to take a pic, and the ones  I no longer have but were so beautiful I still love to remember, I will have a new garden in my new house "Cottage"

The first plant is my Cuerno de Arce still have it will be moving it to a tree on the new house soon, is beautiful and big is getting as big as the one I left in Puerto Rico 15 years ago...

This purple one is arrow someting and I still have it, grows beautiful it was small here now is humungus..is a strong plant...

Bloodshot wheat grass I think is called

This is my little corner where my studio/storage used to be, but I will recreate this corner in my new house

My potted annuals, beautiful every time

My lily, of course the strongest plant on my property, cut them, re-plant them, give to friends, and still there, will take this one to my new house

My Veggies, kind of small but flavor was hhhmmmm

My ajices, sweet peppers,  for sofrito (spanish condiment) delicioso...

Fresas... yes Strawberrys, only grew this pot but it was good enough, loooove the sweetness in this little fruit, I usually don't like Strawberrys they can be tartish but this little thing was as sweet as sugar...

Look at this, delicioso, next batch will be at my new house "the cottage"

my first necklaces MM check this out, mi primer collar, chekea...

This is the first necklace I made with the vintage jewelery by mm kits, well I decided, If this ladies can make it I can too.  Fell in love with vintage groove, they have a nice collection of beautiful stuff, and you can use all this to embelish the scrapbooks too.  I did a group of necklaces in a saturday afternoon, check them out...

This are all four, love, love, love, waiting to get more mula to by more kits...and I'm going to be using other items to integrate the collection.

This is the first one I wore, people were giving me so many complements, but the biggest complements was from my hubby Jose, I wore this with Jeans and a Chico Blouse, too bad I didn't take pics that day, but I will and will post...

This one is gorgeus, love the green u can tell... I saw, they use this also on a wall plaque, love it is big enough to use as wall art...

So this mean I can start my own shop, a vintage shop, right? I'm seriously thinking about it, will have my own little studio when I move soooo, creativity and I will go hand in hand, thank u Lord for being a creative God and for giving me such a desire to create...and I know my business will flurish, with your help...

count down, conteo regresivo

"THE HOUSE"

When the land was purchased, I right away fell in love with the house in it.  The house was in bad shape, but me!!!! saw potential, lots of people may think I'm crazy, but didn't care, I kept dreaming, all of a sudden there was a stop on my idea of moving to the house or maybe my dreams took another shift, then I was planning to make something of the house that would have been pleasing to people and mainly me, I was the one with all the decor... Well this time I don't want to make my story short I want to say it all. I've been waiting for an open diary, Tony said all girl know how to blog and is so true, all we need is a little inspiration and there we go...


The thing was when Jose started to remodel the bathroom in the house we live now, it like inspired him to fix the bathroom in the "house" and what an awesome job he did, then came the kitchen, then the fireplace oh wow, the house from outside don't look any different but inside, wow, is coming along, the house has soooo much potential, I love this house, I don't know, it may have termite, lots of wood may be rotted, the roof is in really bad, bad shape (but it don't leak, yet), but all of those things are things that can be fixed with a little bit money here and there, we will get there...


Now in october, we will be moving and the excitement is overwhelming, yes, the house will not be done before I move, the house still has lot that needs to be fixed, but the whole idea of me moving in there and start putting stuff in it, will fill my heart with joy.  Will be posting pics of the before and after, yeyyyy I can't wait...


My friend from miami, Pastora Ana Gonzales came to see it, she loved it, my prima from west palm came and saw me in it, she said that I'm a woman after her own heart and I know she likes good stuff because we have the same taste...Vilma love u... mi amiga Mayra la flaca came to see it and too bad she went to P.R. for a while but she's my favorite designer in the whole white world thats counting my sis...have lots of people that saw what I saw and that includes my family, my sisters, Keren with all the ideas, she's dying for me to move, and of course mi Mayrish, she loves my house too and that is the most important thing for me...Mami, says every day, "ay estoy loca que te mudes, para venirme pa'ca contigo" and of course my brother Omar and his wife Mary, he was the one with the idea of me moving in there, right away he started saying brake here, put a wall here, this will be your living area, this, well you can do this with this and this with that, I laugh because if it wasn't for him, and other people too, we would not gotten the land at the price we did.  Gracias hermanito, te quiero.


A lot of people in my life saw us living there from day 1,  Mickey and Gladys also saw us living there, my hubby was not to happy with the idea at first and I don't blame him, he's the one that's going to have to do all the manual work...but now he's as excited...well not as much as me but he's excited, once I start to decorate it, once I start to put my stuff in it, he's going to say "this is home" and that is what I want a nice house I can call HOME
