Copy Cat Kitchen

 Well lets say its a rendition, versus a actual copy:)   Their's is super light and bright and mine doesnt even have a dang window lol..  But the nautical elements are there as are the apples- red stripe towel and napkins and ya'll can pretend there's clam chowder in my white ironstone tureen, right.. I know ya can , cause ya'll are good like that ...  LOL

Debbie Doos Copy Cat Party

The sample....

 I'll tell ya I was spittin nails mad this morning when my blue striped fabric for the bar stool copy did'nt arrive..
 I called and the guy reminded me this past monday, mail didnt run so the fabric would be a day or 2 behind.   sheesh, I should have ordered it sooner.   Oh well it'll make pretty pillows for somewhere I guess.

Laurie, Brenda and CeeKay all said kitchen....  wooohooooo..   good guessing Ladies
  I hope ya realize I buffed these apples for ya.. yes I did. Cause YOU are worth it.

 

I thought the red stripe towel would be easy to find. I see them all over blog land BUT noooooooooo,

 I could'nt find a single one. I took a piece of drop cloth I had left over- painters tape and painted my own stripe..     Ya'll ever notice some projects just dont go smooth, like you think they will  :-)

I had fun playing with this photo in psp.

alllllllllrighty, thats all for this time folks...
 I'm so happy you came to visit with me.
 I love having to here and I appreciate your time.
Now I need to get over to Deb's and see everyone else's CC.. I know it will all be Fabulous..

Me and My Breakfast

 I was supposed to do this post yesterday but since today is tuesday , I reckon I'm on time, sorta:)

 Just a little breakfast for me.. Flaxseed cereal, black coffee, followed by 2  8 oz. glasses of water.
Joining the   Marty Tabletop Party
 I use my black n cream mat , my black n cream polka dot napkin and the pink hydrangea blossoms my neighbor have me early this morning..   Just because I have breakfast alone should'nt mean it cant be pretty.
 I digest better when I eat in nice surrounding, don't You?

 Trust me here- as good as it is that its nice to look at, Flaxseed cereal every morning for a month WILL get you into that slim trim bathing suit you've been wanted to wear for years lol..   Its the Scrub Brush of the Century, my daughter says.   Seriously,  it does a body good... You make it just as you would oatmeal- sweetened or not- fruit or not- cream or not..   However you like your oatmeal- have the flax cereal the same way and for goodness sake- dont forget the 2 8 oz. glasses of water within an hour after eating..

 If this is your first time eating it-- may I suggest you NOT get more than 50 yards from a potty..   After a few days that will stop and you can go on about your usual business..
Enjoy:) and do come back in a week and tell me how much weight you lost cause I KNOW you are going to loose..  Not a doubt in my mind about that..

 Thanks for visiting me and Ya'll come back now, Ya Hear~!

Seaside Style Rooms and DebbieDoo's Copy Cat Party

 Happy Saturday  Sweet Cheeks of Blogland. :)

 Its another beautiful day in my neighborhood , which I dearly love BUT I seem to be dreaming of the all things SEA lately... Country Living:: all photos courtesy of them:: sent me an email and upon opening it, what to my thrilled eyes did appear??  Seaside Style rooms.. Yes indeedy do they did.
I have to share them with you as well as my thought about each photo.. WHY you ask- cause I'm just chatty that way  .. giggle
OH YEA.  when you get to the bottom of this post I hope you'll comment and in your comment I'd love YOUR GUESS as to which one of these I'll be doing for DebbieDoo's Copy Cat Party on May 30th.. that link to find out all about it is also at the bottom...

 so here we go.....   
****************************************************************************

 I think a bag like this would look great hanging from a hook on the side of my desk..  Pretty and extra storage too.... 

 

 I have 2 bookcases to paint and I plan to sit one on each side of the fireplace in my living room..  Painting the backs a similar color to this sample photo seems like a good idea.. Of course then I'd have to paint something else in the room that color too and maybe change out my sofa pillows and use a more summer tone rug under my huge ottoman..     Dont ya just love this thinking out loud..  :)

 

 I just happen to have a blank wall on one side of my patio..  Seeing this sample made me wonder why I've never thought of hanging stuff on it.    Makes sense right?  Looks good, I think I'll do it..

 

 I have white cabinets and dark counter tops.  If I added some of these elements I too could have a sorta seaside style kitchen for the summer...    Gonna give this idea some more thought..

 

 This is a mighty pretty set up but my eye mostly goes to that beautiful sailboat and those Lamps.. I seriously love those lamps ..   I wonder if I could make them,, hmmmm..  I do have shades that very shape and size .

I could make some seaside pillows like these IF I had a stencil ... so many idea, so little time. sigh

 

Ok I know this isnt a room but sheesh, $90.00 for this dress...  totally straight sewing- max 2 yards of fabric.. I'm thinkin I could easy make this in about an hour and for $8.00..Yes I see the cutie little rope belt tie thingie but I could use a  thick white shoe string lol.. It even has those closures on the ends..

 sometimes I THINK real good and other times, not so much....

 Lets see.. For the one below I'd have to hit 3 or 4 goodwill stores till I could find enough jugs to spray paint== kinda like Debbie sprayed her Mason Jars.. then stripe some and polka dot some. Run by hancock fabric and grab a few different blue and white fabrics.   and viola:)  easy peasy  and pretty cheap too.

I wow. How my double Pisces son would have loved this room when he lived at home.. I think I'll send him this photo as inspiration and then just pray his fiance doesnt call me screaming  LOL

 Some old books with Sea in the title..  Cheapo square mirror from somewhere. Cut out a large circle of foam core- glue to the mirror and hot glue shells..      Finding a metal sailboat might present a problem , but yea if it was too easy , it wouldnt be as much fun..  If I could fins a small sailboat, I could spray it with pewter spray paint.. Then it would looks like metal without me spending lots of money.....
 The sailboat search begins this afternoon....  keep your fingers crossed for me. Please..

 Now again,, ifin your willin'        Tell me in your comment  which of these samples you think I'll be copying..
   I'll list the names of all those who got it right in the actual post to Debbie's Party..

Hope to see ya'll there.. Its so much fun and dont worry about not doing an exact copy. We all wanna see your creative take on an image..   You'll be amazed at all there is to see posted by others..  Makes me smile just think in about it.  so click the link below and find out all about it.
