| Thursday's Favorite Things with Katherine's Corner |
Thursday, my favorite day! Time to link up with Katherine's Corner for Thursday Favorite Things. Honestly, I don't know if I do this blog hop right. I think everyone else just links their favorite posts of the week. Me, no I am special and I create a post. LOL. So I have given in a little and included links to my favorite posts this week but still created a unique blog because, I am a ginger and we are genetic mutants. (That's my story!)

I have had this table up for sale for about 3 weeks and while everyone has told me how beautiful it is and I know the price isn't off (because I searched for simiar styles and they are selling for $250+ more than I am asking for this piece) so I couldn't figure out what was wrong. A friend of mine suggested perhaps I need to work on furniture staging. I don't know the first thing about this stuff. This is my first attempt at staging and while I wish I had pretty hardwood floors to show this off, tile is the best I could come up with for the time being until we refinish the stuff under the carpet. So, how did I do? It probably looks much better than the old picture sitting infront of the sofa with nothing on it. Maybe I am just appealing to wine lovers?

My flowers from last week look even better this week! This is our first spring in this house so I am surprised everyday by what pops up out front.

We have an 1.20 acres and we are planting some fruit trees! In a few years there should be pears, peaches and pecans for everyone! We also have a garden planned. Ah, fresh tomatoes! I think I am going to have to learn to can and make jam soon. Oh darn!

If you missed my blog on this dresser transformation click here to see how I did it. I really love the semi-industrial feel of this piece.

And I can't tell you how much I am loving these end tables I transformed from ugly 70's to cute green and cream dreams. If you missed Monday's blog click here for the makeover info. I have been wanting a pair of these forever and they turned out even better than I dreamed!
Oh, and I finally got my tickets for Rangers Baseball! April 10, 2015 is the Home Opener. YAY!!!

Hooray for fruit trees! A little work and a huge reward. Good luck selling the table.
Lol, I love your story! Fruit trees and a garden - nothing more rewarding. I baby mine and get really excited for every new leaf :) Thank you for linking up to Thursday Favorite Things and we hope to see you again next week!
Thanks! We planted the last peach tree last night. They are so pretty and I was just glad no critters came out while I was digging. Big, hairy spiders of the tarantula variety are known to show up in my yard from time to time. YUCK! LOL. Happy Friday!
Oh thank you Jas, I love this link and I am totally looking forward to seeing my fruit trees blossom and grow! :)
I'm going to be so jealous of those fruit trees!
Oh, my we just added another one yesterday, a plum. I wish we could sucessfully grow citrus but it is still too cold in the winter here. I would get a lemon tree for sure! I will send you some peaches when I learn to can! :)
