Lovin GREEN ~ my Giveaway

 I got an email from BHG this morning and went straight to their " Decorating with Green" article..
 I LOVE green in almost every shade and tone.  That was always my favorite color, even as a small child.
 Whenever I was given a choice of anything, I choose Green.  My grandmother knew about Green tea wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy before it become a popular drink and yep Green Tea is what she gave me.
 I wanted to share these green room samples with Ya'll just in case you dont get the BHG emails and might miss them..   Some are subtle, some dramatic, some sparse and some vibrant . I love them all and couldnt choose a favorite..  I saved all the samples and plan to use one if DebbieDoo ever has another copycat party..  so without further ado-- or as its said in the South, I 'll Hush Now  lol..

 enjoy and lemme know which is your fav in your comments.  It always makes me smile when I look back and see which one the majority thought I'd be doing a copy of..

Tea Cart Tinkering

 Hi Folks..

 I'm back from Nowhere , giggle.  Thursday about the time we were all packed and ready to leave my Daughter said " I feel funny" . 10 minutes later it was obvious- I'll spare ya'll the gory details- we knew she has a tummy virus..   We brought everything back in and she basically went to bed for the next 4 days.. Then, as it usually happens around here, I got it.~!    All better now and we are thankful for that as well as the fact that we werent several hours down the road or at our destination.  When your sick, you just want your Own Bed.

 Time to rest and think was a vacation of its own though and I have decided to return to reborning- Part Time..    I got away from it for awhile becuase I tend to let things consume me.. I've promised myself I will work only a certain number of hours and only a few days a week. No staying up all night and forgetting to eat. LOL.

 If you'd like to take a peek-

  The link is also on my sidebar

   Some of you may remember this tea cart I purchased 2 years ago..  I still love it but have been thinking it might be time for an update.   I'll be using my own formula of chalk paint but am unsure what color would be best..
 White or more of a pale grey- what say You?
   Its good to be back.. I have missed Ya'll bunches
