Rednesday

Today is Rednesday over at, It's A Very Cherry World, stop by and visit with all of our red lovers by clicking here...

First let me say, I won't be posting as much for awhile. I am having a reoccurance of a medical problem that leaves me feeling pretty bad and just not in the mood or state of mind to post very much... I would like to ask all my readers to please keep me in your prayers.

Several weeks ago, DH and I took a road day trip to Ponchitola, La., you can read about it here.
We have such a good time and enjoyed looking at the old treasures, while there I saw this tricycle sitting near the front door. I asked the owner about it and he said, it wasn't for sale, Yet. He had bought it for his oldest son when he was 4 and now that he was 16, he let him put it on display ...so I got a nice picture of it....He also said that it was originally from the 50s. It is in great shape to be nearly 60 yrs old.

 While we were there I decided I had to go to the rest room and yes, believe it or not..they did have a public restroom, something most places in our area doesn't have...I just loved the wall paper..and had to get a picture, loved the touches of red in the magazine pages...They had used old Magazines pages to cover the walls with...Guess they wanted to give you some reading material, that no one could run off with, while you did your job...BTY, someone had tried to peel some of the pages off the wall..how sad, they are nice enough to furnish folks with a bathroom and some people have to try to mess it up. Had a hard time getting this shot, since room was very dark with light off and with it on the shiny pages left a glare on picture.

Hope you enjoyed my reds, for today.

Rednesday the Guardian Angel...

Today I want to show you my favorite porcelain Doll. I bought her about 12 yrs ago at Cracker Barrel. I just fell in love with her sweet beauty and size. She is a very nice size little lady. I also like her 1920's dress.
I have had her in my Bed Room ever since I got her. When my Connorman who is now 12, first noticed her he wanted to hold her, but of course I wasn't having none of that. He would reach for her and cry, and say mine, mine..finally when he was old enough to talk. I asked him one day why he wanted her so bad. "he said, my angel, keep me safe" Aww, bless his heart, I promised him when I died she would be his and he still says he wants his Guardian Angel when he's grown. He said that when he was little and went to sleep in there he wasn't scared as long as he could see her. He felt like she was watching over him.
She is a beauty...Not what I'd think of as a guardian Angel but if he does, who am I to say no.

Even her high heels are perfectly made to match her beaded purse, earrings and beads. Her feather hat and fake fur coat just set the whole outfit off.

The Polar Bear & The lady in redwork looks so lovely tonight....

I just love this picture and saying, kinda the way I feel today...Bwahahahaha

Even though it has nothing to do with my post..it's just a little thought for the day.

Ok I know I'm being a bad girl.

Ok, here is my post that I am so excited about..

I finally set down and did a little work today, I finished one of my Lady in Red pillowcases. I used an old Aunt Martha transfer pattern that I found on Ebay. I put it on an off white pillow case...mainly cause I found a new in package pair on sale at a local Thrift Store for $2.00. Hey I like a bargain what can I say...lol..I think the red and off white looks good together.


Think they will look good on my guest bed, when I redo the room in red and cream.....
