Blossom,
Spring arrives!
. . .and so it does ~
On Crooked Creek!
While living in South East Kansas,
many, m a n y years ago,
I purchased these verdigris petite wall pockets.
The name of the unique Antique and Gift Shoppe
was The Brass Pig!
The Southwestern Turquoise hue with intricate detailing
of the embossing on the iron wall pocket had stolen my heart!
These exquisite wall pockets were purchased
to line a narrow wall in the Laundry Room of our "Dream Home"!
Affectionately known as the "Mud Room",
the walls were decorated in a subtle palette of tan,
honey yellow with a hint of blue plaid wall paper
that had large Sunflowers, with a scattering of bees, butterflies,
dragonflies and ladybugs throughout the wide border.
The whimsical wrought iron butterfly, dragonfly
and ladybug hooks were the perfect accessory
on which to hang these wall pockets for our area there. . .
and here in our Dining Room On Crooked Creek!
So many of my dear blogging friends
have either made a major move in the last year,
are in the process of building a home,
or relocating to a new home ~
that I felt compelled to share these sweet wall pockets with you.
They made the journey across the Prairie
with "Mr. Ed" and I. Much like many of you,
we faced numerous doubts, frustrations and
uncertainties that are commonplace with any move.
But much like these petite wall pockets,
we found the "Perfect Place" here on this side of the Prairie!
Through determination and perseverance,
we count it all JOY for having made the decision to move
to be close to our son and daughter~in~law!!!
Until next time. . .

In dedication to my life~long friend, Rosann!
May you, too, find the JOY your heart desires ~
combined with the peace of God ~ as you follow
your path full of new adventures
in your journey of life here upon Earth!!!
Your Best Friend Forever,
Pat

Love the blooms in the wall pocket. So pretty. Love the story of bringing them with you. So love that you are closer to your children. They are blessed to have you nearby.
