Seriously Folks.......

Could this price tag be correct? I found this beautiful white ceramic dish at Marshall's the other day and when I looked at the price tag, all I could think was, "quick, grab it, it is too good to be true". Now my little treasure may not sound like much to you, but I get such joy out of the "little things in life" and my pretty little tray from Marshall's sure put a smile on my face.....




One of the guys at work brought this beautiful screen to me the other day. He just "gave it to me" since I had admired it in his home on a past occasion. He said he knew I would appreciate it more than he does and I sure do! I don't know if I should try to alter the frame with a painting technique since it is beveled and leaded. Any suggestions?

It may not scream "Cottage Style" but I like the way it "puts my fireplace away" for the summer.

I just bought a white tray at Marshalls too!

I love the fireplace screen. I would leave it as is. I think it looks great!

I bought that same white tray awhile ago and I paid more then that. In fact I paid A LOT more then that. I got it at a little shop by where I live. Marshalls is always a great place to find treasures like that.

I think I would leave the fireplace screen the way it is. It's so prety.

Hugs,
Joanne

Dearest Debbie!
What a precious gift he gave you, but I am not surprised at all, I want to send you stuff I know you would love too! You are so sweet and kind it inspires gift giving in us...I would leave the screen the way it is, it is really beautiful! Way to go you blessed girl!!!!
I think that tray is so wonderful, I love the fact that it is all curvy and the handles are wonderful on it too! Will you use it to serve food on? Or will it be an addition to the china hutch?
I will send you an email tomorrow, the day got away from me, I spent it praying in the garden...
XXOO,
Donna Lynn
