Text of the page (random words):
pen you won t want to miss the other fabulous spaces either here s a link back to karen at my desert cottage for you just click here karen s space is spectacular you ll want to see that for sure but look at mine first please it ll look a whole bunch better it s gonna be pretty pitiful after seeing karen s i am crazy about cath kidston so that was my inspiration it s so happy isn t it i have a teenie tiny studio space but have so much stuff tucked into every single nook and cranny i ve tried to get things as organized as possible whew is that ever a tough task if you re an artsy girlie you ll exactly what i m talking about so many things carry over from one project to another secondly i love stuff really love it yep one of those hoarder kind of girls i admit it there it is in black and white here we have my work table i made it yep sure did it works great lots of storage behind that little curtain i also made the bigger scalloped shelf and the one with points those little babies hold a lot of goodies try to ignore the hideous office chair the new one i ordered was really poor quality so it s going right on back i had an old one before that i had made a sweet lil slipcover for but it was so big and bulky i could hardly move the darn thing making every single inch count was a priority chickies just look at all that goodness on crammed onto a six inch wide shelf i ve had this odd old sewing machine table for about a century now i d love one of those dandy koala fancy ones but one would never fit into this beensie space and this one works just fine edward scissorhands where are you i love the things probably have at least fifty pair ugly lamp shade feather boa is the fix you can barely see it back behind that stack of books but that jar with the ribbon it s full of precious notes from my daughter love it and it was one of my most cherished gifts evah no there are no diamonds to be found but it was easier to write that on the tag than little fake stick on rhinestones and more colored pencils these are watercolor pencils can t have too many colored pencils seriously you can t at least that s exactly what i tell the hubbster i have hundreds of em i bought those two small fancy lil shelves at the thrift store just perfect for small stuff rolling right around to the crammed full side of the room so happy that you can t see this wall before you re actually in the room but let me tell ya i have a ton of stuff stored here i just bought the billys at ikea knowing how fantastic they would be three of the regular sized ones and one that s skinnier fills the whole wall i wish i had been able to buy matching and beautiful containers to use but that would have been super duper expensive so i used mostly what i had already yep penny pincher tilly tightwad for sure the little child s chair doubles as a footstool and a step stool to reach higher things short yes i am i bought the little drawer do hickie at the thrift store for a couple of bucks it was part of a vanity but with some wood filler paint and knobs it s just great see that adorable red heart up there a gift sent to me by sue at rue mouffetard i love her thank you sue you still here wow geeee thanks new chair ikea i swear i couldn t make the slipcover as inexpensively as they sell them and those shelves see i couldn t fit another thing in there packed as full as possible everything is marked but i want to make a map of everything as well i m going to print the pix on regular printer paper and write on each container what s inside and eventually make new and fancy tags right now these will do this stool serves as a wait for it stool how clever am i and as an end table when i m using my chair need something more that that little lamp but where where would it fit so dear chickies there you have it tiny i think my space is about 9 x 10 or so but it really is my happy place so glad you came by now pop on over to see lots and lots of wonderful places where bloggers create huggies and lovies spencer xoxoxoxo ps can anybody explain to me how to make my pictures bigger and not run into all that stuff on my right sidebar i cannnnnot figure it out posted by bellamere cottage at 11 30 am 53 comments labels cath kidston cheery cottage style craft room crafting painting paper arts sewing studio where bloggers create sunday february 23 2014 well i guess i could say it s been a long long time hey chickies how have y all been there have been many things happening here since i posted last june holy cow time does fly i finally did finish my little bathroom and will get around to posting pictures of it sometime soon and i did the spring cleaning and now it s time to start again it always creeps right up on me and then there s the update my husband suffered with trigeminal neuralgia for nearly two years and finally decided to have the surgery to correct it last september and here begins the story he did really well it s brain surgery he was home two days when he got really weak and sick he d been doing really well so i couldn t figure what was wrong i took him back to the hospital and they found he had a blood clot near the surgery point and meningitis yikes he was in the icu for eight days came home and finally began to feel better he still couldn t drive so that meant i drove over 100 miles round trip to the hospital every day that i didn t actually stay there then drove him back and forth to work about 100 miles for both trips every day driving driving driving by december he was feeling good and driving himself yipppeeee then he called from the hospital to say they had admitted him he d had two strokes tons of tests and rehab back to work me transporting again we went to the stroke clinic on january 3rd to talk to them about what could possibly have been the cause these were not tia s serious strokes fortunately the loss of use of his arm and leg were minimal and they were sure he would recover nearly fully he d been on coumadin since the brain surgery it was a mystery how he could have had two strokes the stroke clinic added aspirin and ordered some testing the following morning he had two more strokes and was transported to a major hospital where he stayed for 26 days he s been home now for a month and yes thank you jesus he making great strides in the recovery department he s been on iv penicillin for months for the meningitis finally off that as of friday and lots of pt ot and speech therapy the blessing in all of this countless we have had so many people do wonderful and generous things for us i am grateful beyond words god has been so faithful with us every single step of the way he is so good and i trust that he has us in the palm of his hand what better place could there be so there you have it not a lot of creativity to share and now you know why on another note i am a huge pinterest fan i was zipping around when i saw a familiar shot it was my house i was so surprised never have pinned any of my pictures and don t have the little red pinterest gizmo on my blog either i gotta say i feel sort of famous ok maybe not but it was a lovely surprise i m also surprised and delighted that some of you are still out there it has been a long time sending huggies lovies and lots of gratitude spencer posted by bellamere cottage at 4 19 pm 16 comments monday june 3 2013 hawaiian style hi girlies and happy monday i promised to post these pix several weeks ago but time got away from me yes again d i ve been working away on my bathroom why does everything take about 2 079 times longer than you predict it s coming along nicely though and i can t wait to show y all my mother in law told me that these little cottages were built by the missionaries from england my brother in law said they were built by the missionaries from new england hmmm not sure but they are the sweetest little houses ever aren t they we haven t taken a drive up to diamond head in a long time but took a little detour so i could take some pictures for you they re taken with my itouch so the quality isn t great but you ll get the idea see england d they re designated historic homes but i didn t get out to read the little plaques hence the questionable facts part of our pre marriage agreement was that i d never have to move to hawaii i love to visit it s just beautiful but the heat gets to me after awhile and i love the seasons here in beautiful and equally green washington and besides that i d miss my family but if i could live in one of these little beauties i might just make the move look at diamond head right behind it and it looks like roses behind the fence but it s actually hibiscus this is the one i d choose adorable so homey i think this one looks the most hawaiian in design the shape of the roof but it has a little red english post box it looks so cozy to me i had to get a picture of this adorable thatched roof even if i couldn t see the house so quaint isn t it well off to get some blood work and home to finish up the bathroom so many tiny details have taken up lots of extra time my hubby and i have decided this will be our last undertaking this large and it really wasn t that big we re going to have to have these things done from now on we re old and tired d have a great week chickies spencer xoxoxoxo posted by bellamere cottage at 6 39 am 20 comments labels diamond head hawaii hawaiian cottages historic homes thatched roofs tiny homes saturday may 25 2013 ten years ago today yeah i don t think this is really the sort of anniversary one celebrates but i couldn t help remembering that day ouch getting ready for a garage sale i wanted to ask my darling hubby if it was ok if i sold one of the old pictures he brought to washington from hawaii i was trying so hard not to break the picture as i fell oh yes i did i did save the picture not such a great result for my leg still ten years later not totally healed but so incredibly grateful that i ve been on my feet for ten more years thank you jesus if you re so inclined you can read my story here and today s a big day for my sweet hubby he ll be baptized in water tonite at our church he was baptized as a child this time he made the decision to live for jesus himself i can t wait i am so happy and as we celebrate memorial day i ll be grateful for my ability to walk but so very grateful to those who fought for our country you are heroes god bless each and every one of you and to your families who have done it all in your absence my heart goes out to you you are heroes as well have a safe weekend my dear

beautiful beautiful hawaii we re home from a wonderful and restful 10 days in the islands we stay as usual in the very bedroom where my husband stayed as a boy his mom has lived in this house for over fifty years that s the view everyone has enjoyed for so long easy to see why she doesn t want to move she turns 89 today and sadly has alzheimer s we heard many of the same stories over and over but she was so joyful in sharing them that they were new and fresh each time she s been very independent since my father in law s death over 20 years ago and actually played tennis until about 3 years ago and was involved in a lot of charity work and her church much more content to be at home now it broke my heart when the end of our trip was nearing and she kept asking us to stay to come back soon she had plenty of room could we move in and telling us how much she d miss us bless her heart she stood in the driveway watching us leave until we turned the corner boy that was a tough departure happy birthday sweet maggie and yes we ll be back soon the view above is looking left from her home this view is looking to the right isn t it fabulous soooo beautiful this shot is from our first morning we always go out to watch the sunrise not too spectacular this morning but it s a great place to have your morning cuppa on our way home from hawaii kai diamond head oh my gosh there are some spectacular homes and views up there unbelievable love the courtyards so many homes all over hawaii have them they re not allowed in our little community but oh how i wish they were blue skies and blue blue ocean
