    Beautiful fireplace -- so glad that you were able to repurpose it to suit your space so beautifully! Thanks for your visit and I would have loved to be at your yard sale! I'd been looking for that chair for a couple of years -- and was so pleased to find it this weekend since it brought back such fond memories -- now I guess I need to find one more since the twins will be needing something before too long. Love your blog - good luck with your move.

    Hi Kathy,
    I just love what you did with your fireplace!. It's always fun to re-purpose something we love so much and especially since your "Mr.Wonderful" make it for you.
    Your pictures are so clear and pretty, you really do a great job behind the camera.
    I have enjoyed catching up with you today,
    Take care and have a wonderful day,
    Elizabeth

    Hi Kathy,
    I left you a note but I don't think it went through. I'm not sure what happened so I will try see if this one does.

    Ah, the wonders of paint! I wonder how often we get rid of things that could be transformed into treasures with just a bit of paint and a bit there. Your fireplace is wonderful and I love your touches of fall, too. ~Adrienne~
