It's That Time of The Year!



Well, it's that time of the year when
we reflect back on what's taken place in the past 12 months!
I have to say,
this year has gone by fast and furious!
It's been a good year for us,
and we've been blessed in many ways!
All is well with our family and friends,
and we are very thankful for that!
We are looking forward to the new year to come!

I want to wish all my blogging friends a
Very Merry Christmas
and
A Happy New Year!

Here's praying for
Peace on Earth
And Goodwill to all!


This is my favorite clock.
Not sure if someone has painted it long ago,
or if it came this way when it was made!



Alabaster birds I bought from
Peg of French Vanilla
several years ago!


One of my favorite cabinets!
Of course it's all crusty and rusty!

I'm linking up with Kathleen
over at Faded Charm for her
White Wednesday!

    Thanks so much for letting me know that I had a major brain fart! I am not feeling well at all today and shouldn't have even attempted to do this on my own today-LOL.
    Your whites are just simply lovely. I love the clock.
    Merry Christmas!

    Where do you get your old clock faces? I look all over, and even if I find one, it is really spendy.
