Thank you very much to all who participated last week in
Home and Garden Thursday!
The variety to the posts shared in last week's party was exactly what I was hoping to see. You shared gardens, recipes, crafts, home decor and more! Thank you so much. I was quite inspired! I am honored to see many of you return and to see new participants. I hope you have opportunity to visit these marvelous blogs.
Here are a couple of the fabulous posts:
I felt myself relax as I was viewing this wonderful post on the color blue at J Biggs Little Pieces. Color definitely has an affect on us! I just love her choices - Oh, to have enough rooms to fill your heart's desire for style and color!
Oh the beauty shared with us in her post on busts. She has such a lovely collection - I wish I could find more here! You can find this post at Dee at the Carolton.

Bella has added a sweet touch of spring on her front porch. I just love her planter and the gorgeous fragrant blooms. So did you. You can find this post at Bella's Rose Cottage.
There is something romantic and wonderful about old books! They lend themselves to any type of home decor. You will find a lovely collection of vintage books at Just a Little Souther Hospitality.
Thank you once again, everyone for participating, visiting and commenting! You make Home and Garden Thursdays worthwhile! I look forward to those of you who will rejoin us tonight and for all the new participants!

I am still and will be for quite a long while, enjoying the artisanal chocolate i shared with you last week. I made a chocolate cake with the cocoa and the baking chocolate - my family was enraptured!

Did you see this lovely Down-to-Earth bag created by Donata at DK's Craft Cafe? I was inspired by it's beauty and simplicity. I find it quite elegant! Did you notice what she made it out of! Go on over - you'll be amazed!
Johanna at Silber and Rosen is such a lovely and gracious blogger. She shares her love of teatime and especially of roses. Last week she shared with us two teacups made by different makers, but with very similar design. She also made these beautiful napkin, rings and a lovely rose covered tea cozy. I found it quite exquisite.

Dreamy. That is the word to describe the gorgeous bedrooms shared last week by Connie at Living Beautifully. Oh, my! I loved so many of these lovely bedrooms and apparently, so did you!
It is always a joy to visit Christine's blog, Christine's Home and Travel Adventures. She has a lovely home and a gorgeous garden. She recently returned from spending special time with her new grand-babies. Last week she shared a delightful Valentine's tablescape - I loved the layered dishes, the sweet accessories and her darling bear. So did you!

Thank you very much to all who participated last week in
Home and Garden Thursday!
I continue to be thrilled by many of you that
I have come to know over the past year and
to find some new friends! Each of you did a fantastic job!
I am also heartened to see that those participating are getting more
and more visitors as time goes by! Thank you so much to my
readers and to the readers from each one who shares this party for
coming on over and paying these wonderful bloggers a visit!
There's so much inspiration and talent shared through blogging!
Here are a couple of the fabulous posts:
Poppy at With A Dash of Color assembled a fantastic Winter White tabletop vignette! I love the keys, the tulips in the teapot-with lace, and the toile candle she created. She is also participating in the Linky Follow blog party – there are many! If you are considering joining Linky Follow – it is a great tool and this party is a marvelous way to find your fellow Linky Follow bloggers!
Robins are definitely a welcome sign to gardeners of the onset of spring. I have seen several in our gardens and have read a number of your posts celebrating their arrival. You will find on Bluebell Woods, however the most charming of Robins – those fould in Britain. They are a sweet, little bird with a heart-shaped red breast – oh, how I would be completely charmed to see them in my garden. Reader's Choice:
I know many of you are dreaming of your spring gardens. So am I. I am dreaming of the roses, the herbs, the bulbs…Jann Olson from Have a Daily Cup with Jann Olson shared pictures she took of a garden tour – beautiful gardens and another wish by many of us – to have chickens in the garden. To me that’s so romantic – so cottage.
Sometimes through blogging we are given the opportunity to do one of the things the LORD has charged us with doing. One of them is to bear one another’s burdens – no greater way than to pray for another. Kathe with an E shared her pride in her family and the struggles their currently going through with her terminally ill Father. All through this she continues to charm her home to bring encouragement to herself and to her family – thank you Kathe- yes, life does go on.
postscript note:
I truly appreciate you all for participating and visiting. With all the amazing blogs and all the fun blog parties out there I am completely honored by your presence. Thank you to for patience. Last week I was unable to leave messages with all the blog posts I visited. My husband and I spent the better part of the week attempting to save the life of my Father-in-Law's calf. Unfortunately late Friday night he passed away. My heart hurts - he was so beautiful and tried very hard himself. This is why I didn't follow my childhood dream of becoming a Veterinarian- too tender-hearted.
I am working on catching up with all the things I had set to do. I truly do appreciate all you who have shared your experiences - we learn as we go.
Well done everyone! I look forward to those of you who will
rejoin us tonight and for all the new participants!

Here are a couple of the fabulous posts:
This post by Linda at Beautiful Ideas reminded me of one of the reasons I began blogging. I was a lurker for a couple of years and the camaraderie I found shared among the bloggers made me want to become a part of this community. One of these dear, inspirational bloggers was and remains Carolyn from Aiken House and Garden. Linda, in her post reminisces over her wonderful visit to Carolyn’s home, which she relates in several posts –her gorgeous gift from Carolyn and a breathtaking slideshow of teatime photos shared by Carolyn. Set yourself a cup of tea and delight in this wonderful post – posts.
Someday when I grow up I want to have a good camera. I have learned so much over time from great blog photographers and have tried to apply their knowledge and gift in my photography. It’s just plain fun. Carmelina with Creative Carmelina gives clear tips you can apply in your picture taking – some of you know these tips – some may glean a good deal. Go on over – be like me – soak up this information like a sponge – another gift of being in this wonderful community.

Along with the gentle spirit in our blog community, the wonderful tips shared to make blogging more enjoyable, we have those who share their gift of design thereby spurring a flurry of us who find what we have in our homes to create inspiring vignettes. This was what you enjoyed when you viewed Poppy’s blog, With a Dash of Color. She not only created a gorgeous vignette, but she also had fun with her camera and graphics found at our friend’s blog – Graphics Fairy.
We are going to end this Home and Garden Feature post on a sweet note, one from Sweet Romantic Notions. Valentines is just a few days away and creativity in blogland is blossoming. Shirley created these extremely adorable clipboards any one of us would enjoy having and using – wouldn’t they just bring a smile to your face as you are doing your daily work. These cute vintage images are just wonderful.
Well done everyone! I look forward to those of you who will
