A TEA PARTY 
THAT WE MUST ATTEND

Miss Vanessa started throwing the most wonderful tea parties in 2007 and I have attended all of them. The parties took a break for several years as Miss Vanessa explored new adventures.  

Teacups and Ponies took a break from the blog world for several years, my last post was in January 2017. 
I have missed blogging and still follow favorite bloggers that I have known since I started blogging in 2006. Nothing has called me back to blogging but then…this magical Tea Party being held on July 24, 2021, did! 

Listen closely this Tea Party brings together some of the most CREATIVE bloggers from all over the world. 
So I will be attending

What the World Needs Now Rocks Sweet Rocks

What????


What ever happened to Love Sweet Love???

After the last couple of weeks I dare say Love=Rocks.
Yep that's what I said.


A little history, early in December 
a little Face Book group was started called
MARTIN COUNTRY ROCKS.
Simple little idea where kids and adults paint 
plain old rocks and hide them all over town.
Today this little group has grown to over 7600 members.




My grandchildren were more than 
excited to paint rocks.  
WHAT???
They didn't want to play with the Barbie 
with the puppy that poops
 (You have got to be kidding me)



They wanted to paint rocks and then 
hide them for others to find.
My middle granddaughter is 3
 and asks her mother every day to 
"look at the rock page"




I told my husband about this exciting group...
there was a lack of excitement to say the least 
and absolutely no comprehension. 
 Well I have been shaming him everyday
 with little heart touching rock stories.







I too have gotten in on the fun.
I have been painting little treasures 
which are less than masterpieces 
but loving every minute of it.
Today I checked on the
"rock activity" and found 2 very sweet posts:





Ask my husband how he feels now.
So simple!
So pure!
So fun!

Wishing you an exciting 2017!
Health and Happiness.

The Ultimate TO ME FROM ME gift


Occasionally I get a TO ME FROM ME gift for Christmas.
THIS YEAR I got the ultimate #TOMEFROMME

Check it out!
The Workbox 3.0, I have been eyeing
 this little giant gift for a while now 
and Christmas was the perfect opportunity to indulge. 

My gift was delivered on Friday, all whopping 680 lbs. packed in 5 different cartons.
Let's say I was taken back a bit and overwhelmed at the sight of it, not to mention 
wanting to tear into the thing the moment it was delivered. 
However being the mature adult that I am I called
 my handyman and scheduled him for a Tuesday date. 

Well, COME ON TUESDAY!





I'll keep you updated!

In the meantime...

Wishing you Health, Happiness and lots of Creativity!

My Three Little Artists


This year I was going to have a
 GROWN UP Christmas Tree

I ordered special ornaments to 
compliment my ginger jar collection


I carefully decorated the tree with "professional tips" from
 the country's leading designers.


I carefully handled my new hand painted ornaments.


I really put great thought and effort into
 the placement of each ornament.
Using suggestions, from my new book,
of placing the small ornaments at the top 
with larger ornaments adorning the bottom half. 



The very anticipated result was 
A SUPER DISAPPOINTMENT!

The tree didn't have any SPARK.

ENTER THE GRAND CHILDREN...
I had told the girls that they could help me trim the tree, 
so I pulled out the plastic bulbs 
 and let them place a few color
 coordinated bulbs here and there...

No one was following my direction.
The picked any old color and
 hung them where ever they wanted.


WHAT WAS I THINKING???
I was thinking that my Christmas tree
 finally had SPARK!!!!
They did a much better job than I could have ever done!
So now my tree is beautifully
 decorated only as high as 
little designer hands can reach. 



My daughter asked me 
when she was 
leaving if I was going to 
change it back the way it was?
NO WAY!
I LOVE our very eclectic Christmas Tree. 
Thanks to the 3 budding artists 
that I call my granddaughters. 

Wishing You Health and Happiness
this Holiday Season,

Kelley

S.O.S....Shell Obession Syndrome


I have suffered from S.O.S. 
on and off for the last 5 years. 

WARNING! 
It can be contagious!


I'm a girl who knows the tides 
and the treasures they might bring. 


I truly marvel at each and every shell I pick up.
Each a true piece of art 
thanks to Mother Nature.
(my favorite artist) 
In addition to the thrill of finding each little treasure 
I love using the treasure in my crafting. 


The joke at my house, 
if it stands still it's likely to be
 adorned with shells. 
I hate to admit there might be some truth to that.

Shells have added bling and zing to 
 many things I use in my every day life. 

A Marlin greets 
my guests in their bedroom.


Simple chargers from Hobby Lobby
come to life with the S.O.S. treatment 


  and of course more is always better. 


I not only have items in my house adorned,
I also wear my shells on my sleeve. 


All of these shells make a girl 
feel like a Mermaid Princess.


Personally, a Cowgirl Mermaid 
is my preference.


A girl needs a shell purse 
to carry all of her Mermaid treasure. 


I have taken enough of your time.
I could show you lots more but frankly
it's a bit frighting when I started gathering my shell projects. 

I know others that suffer from S.O.S.
LOOK AT THIS!!!



WEE WEE WOW WOW!
Is all I can say!

I found this crazy picture on Instagram
posted by iloveshelling, you can visit her blog
at iloveshelling.com, 
she lives on Sanibel Island, a shelling paradise.
I'm so jealous!

Fortunately there is no known cure for S.O.S.
(thank goodness) 

Happy Shelling!

Kelley
