I've neglected my blog for sometime now so I've got to do a better job. I owe it to my 15 followers LOL !!!! I've been reading different blogs lately ...Do you ever get in a decorating blah????? I've been decorating the primitive/Colonial look for so many years that Iam growing tired of it. Oh don't get me wrong I still Love it but I want to try something different. I am Loving that vintage cottagey farmhouse look...</span></strong><br />

The picture below is how I did my (<strong><span style="font-size: x-small;"><em>fake) </em>fireplace for fall. I hung an old plastic mirror I painted. The plates are old from my mom. The little frames (which are hard to tell in the pictures) of birds I got at the Goodwill and painted. The silver plated ice bucket I got for free at a garage sale . </span></strong><br />

I got one at a garage sale years ago . My daughter had stored somethings out in the garage and I was out rummaging for something and found one of them peeking out of a box and I decided I would take him in the house so he wouldn't get dirty.. I told her I was using him, well mom that's great but its not mine. Hummmm........Where did he come from??

I've spent my entire adult life fixing up these old homes I live in and I think I am ready for a small home that doesn't require so much up keep. So that being said I was looking on the internet to just get a feel to what was out there. I ran across this house for sale by owner. (picture above) so I drove by and the picture doesn't do it justice. It was so adorable that I nearly freaked out. I drove bye really slow taking pictures, and then turned around and drove back by again. wow I was really blowed away (I am hoping the owner doesn't think I a stocker)lol but man it was so dog gone cute! The ad said they were holding an open house on Sunday so I thought I'll go and just have a look. When I get there I knock on the door (at the front door I "am in love with this home) and the home owner answers, I ask if shes having an open house and she looks shocked, she said no you must have the wrong house I said is this 1142 she said yes but were not selling our house. I was so disappointed that it most of shown because she ask me if I want to come in and take a tour. Why of course I do... Well friends let me tell you that if was even cuter inside. OMG I nearly passed out because it was sooooooo adorable. Colonial inspired painted cupboards through out, colonial furniture,wall paper stenciling, hard wood floors,beams. Her husband made all the old looking baskets. Well I am in love I am hoping they'll grab their toothbrush and clothes and let me have it lock stock and barrel. They had thought about selling but after looking around they decided they would be better off to just stay where they were. Oh well I was disappointed but they were such a nice couple to have met that is was worth it. I wish I had more pictures of their home to show you but how rude would that have been.....he he he... Maybe we'll see it featured in Country Sampler?? Well until next time .............<em>kim</em><br />

</div>The love of my life: She was born October 20Th. 2008. This little bundle at first sight stole my heart so completly that even now 1 year later that moment in time still brings tears to my eyes. Now when she sees me her eyes light up and she can't wait to come to me. When she gives me a kiss and a hug I believe my heart stops beating for a split second because it can't hold any more joy and happiness. <br />

I was in 4-H for 8 years (cooking). One year I was selected to cook - off at the local fair in breakfast foods. I was around 11 or 12 years old. I remember being so nervous up on stage that I couldn't think straight. I made a breakfast of scrambled eggs,sausage, peaches with blueberries and hot chocolate with mini marshmallows. I was competing against girls alot older and they were making yeast cinnamon rolls, bread etc. and I won.......I couldn't believe it I was excited but I was so glad I wasn't old enough to go to state to compete because I know I would of been to nervous. LOl I am taking my little grand baby to the fair on Wednesday, I think she will love it, shes 9 months and can moo like a cow so she's already into that fair scene....Sorry I've tried to up load some pictures but i just don't know why they won't go?????Very frustrating!!!!<br /><br />Until Next time..........<span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">kim</span>Down My Country Lanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11387607472807186825noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4844202106405392638.post-74452958427779428252009-07-30T19:54:00.007-04:002009-08-23T19:17:54.285-04:00The Past and The PresentWelcome: This is a picture of our home around 1889 or 1898.The shutters were dark green.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhutINjqDPGYmIrasKPRAf1JTrF99xov7QE63ONtoc-Z0ByfIPOL13kUo_HBHeNb4qDW7YvuR7edKIke6G7gZtTaTqW6D3SnC4Ho3Gx_KJSogC6RbXoUSJ-hail1sVI3s9_KqQh7cKSpVCq/s1600-h/010.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhutINjqDPGYmIrasKPRAf1JTrF99xov7QE63ONtoc-Z0ByfIPOL13kUo_HBHeNb4qDW7YvuR7edKIke6G7gZtTaTqW6D3SnC4Ho3Gx_KJSogC6RbXoUSJ-hail1sVI3s9_KqQh7cKSpVCq/s320/010.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373300834763910434" /></a> <br />This is how our home looks today.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQOzhR_Ku5yR7ewG3CIUs3qcln8FdwMYSOqdD4HQjOEQHI1x4saoakugvOPnixZutyfdRaY4Ul_fKI_YRFPVS9PI1bPyiqn1e8y5-EWSCOvorhvDg7f6cg0nRhSpOOVrsTQN1VEUTzJt3Y/s1600-h/005.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQOzhR_Ku5yR7ewG3CIUs3qcln8FdwMYSOqdD4HQjOEQHI1x4saoakugvOPnixZutyfdRaY4Ul_fKI_YRFPVS9PI1bPyiqn1e8y5-EWSCOvorhvDg7f6cg0nRhSpOOVrsTQN1VEUTzJt3Y/s320/005.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373300843195330210" /></a>These old houses are always a work in process, it seems when you get one thing fixed something else needs your attention.

It was advertised as rough conditions , but you know rough conditions may not mean the same to the next person so I went to check it out. Oh Yea it was rough condition. The bottom back was missing its legs so it had a lean to it, I knew that it would have taken alot of work to recreate the legs. So I decided to pass on it but I did purchase a old metal double wash tubs for $2.00. Then I got to thinking about how I was going to lug them to the truck? I was just going to put them out back and plant flowers in them . So I went home to ask the muscles of the house if he wanted to go back with me to load them. He said he would ,so off we went. When we got back to the place the wash tubs were already loaded on some one elses trailer. I asked a lady if she minded if I took my wash tubs back she said Oh I just love them but I thought someone had just left them. She wanted to buy them from me, so I sold them to her for $5.00 you know gas money and all. lol The picture below is a sellers cupboard (not the brand just the style)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEZHdj3vBj9VNm7FZq9g766nz3tLStEgQhMZ40QVa3Ms-S4destzoZmDJqRZV9b-fFkUkrTPDnRScvqAp4hZMw1GLveEJMAqsu7ZbGVOltJbW7vjVCTqCXkTAP5f2ed1SYab4-kbqk94QN/s1600-h/SANY0380.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEZHdj3vBj9VNm7FZq9g766nz3tLStEgQhMZ40QVa3Ms-S4destzoZmDJqRZV9b-fFkUkrTPDnRScvqAp4hZMw1GLveEJMAqsu7ZbGVOltJbW7vjVCTqCXkTAP5f2ed1SYab4-kbqk94QN/s320/SANY0380.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373304147939778386" /></a>

<div>Greetings from Ohio:</div><br />
<div>Thank you for stopping by. I am new to the primitive decorating world of blogging. I purchased my first lap Top in January and found the blogging world so amazing that I just had to get in on the fun. I live in the country on a small farm. I believe the house I live in was built around 1898 and is a typical farm house. I love decorating with a mix of primitive and colonial furnishing. I am always on the look out for the next neat thing to add to the mix. I work in a small branch bank in another small town 7 miles from my home. I work with two other ladies and they think I am crazy when I talk about my (country blogging friends) because I love hearing about other bloggers family, what they been doing all day and the exciting things their working on and whats going on in their day. I only hope I can make my blog as exciting and interesting as you all. Well I am going to sign off till next time but I hope you'll come back because I am going to show pictures of my home and of course my beautiful granddaughter. lol<br />
