Monday Makeover - Winter Coffee Table

Happy Tuesday 

Sweet Friends,

Seems like ages since I have posted..........

course, it really isn't, just 4 days!!  lol

So how in the world are ya??  Hope 

you had a lovely weekend and Monday.

Our weekend was lovely and a bit busier than usual,

Friday night we went to a Sunday School Social, and

Sat. since it seemed like Spring outside we did some

yard work,  and cleaned up the porch, and aired out

the house, it was so nice to be outside and to be
 accomplishing something and having fun at the same 
time and to have the windows open. The house was so 
fresh and clean smelling when we came in..............
We also watched 

"The Chronicles of Narnia", for the 2nd time,  it is

 really such a great movie.

Sunday morning was our norm but Sunday night we 

had a Brass Band Concert.  They come every year in

 Jan. and they are phenomenal,  you may have heard

of them especially if you live in the Missouri area,

"Tim Zimmerman, and the King's Brass",  

they are mostly students from the Grace Brethren

 college I think it is,  anyway, it was so enjoyable.

Monday hubby was off,  and has caught a cold, so

 we didn't do much,  however, I did make this new 

soup I found in a magazine,  it is called

"Lemon chicken soup with spinach" which I will

share with you soon.  We really liked it,  and it

was perfect for hubbies cold.  Please pray I don't

catch it, as Megan's baby shower is this Saturday,

and of course, I want to be there.

Guess I had better get on with Make Over Monday,
since I am a lil late already............lol
Thought I would show you my Winter Coffee Table.  
My header picture was one of  my new inspiration 
pieces this year............and it's place of honor was
 of course, the coffee table.  lol

Dark Reds and Blues, and Browns, with a lil white
 thrown in to brighten it up,  are my typical Winter 
Colors every year!

Had just finished off a box of Gevalia Coffee,  and

thought hey, I should do something with that cute

 box.  lol  (and by the way, that light roast coffee is

 wonderful).

So thought, hmm, what could I do with it, and

decided on some dark red roses , so stuck them

in there and seemed like it needed a lil some-

thing else, so  found a pretty white hanky  and stuck

 it in the box where the pretty embroderiery showed

 and then simple stuck the roses in..................

Can't get much easier than that!!  lol

Decided to use my blue tea tray with a gingham
napkin accent..... and I am really enjoying
my new white artichoke.

Here's an overview.

Cup and saucer from my old dishes with a candle

Cream pitcher and coasters which we use all the time.

Here is the view from the backside, a lil blurry, sorry!

and came across this alabaster heart,  a gift from a
friend some years back,  and thought it was the perfect
finish.......actually I made a sign to go there,  but liked
it better on the mantle,  which I will probably show
you next week.

Hope you have a Terrific Tuesday,  and that you 
are having Terrific weather to go along with it.
