Spring brings new things

Ah spring! Fall is my favourite season but spring runs a very close second. With each day there are new and wonderful changes...leaves on the trees, flowers, the smell of the wet soil, gentle breezes and the sun, the sweet, sweet sun. It feels really good doesn't it? As things are changing outside, so they are changing inside too. I have received some new really neat things. New bags and chenille cushions from Echoes in the Attic (made from antique chenille blankets from MaryGrove on Lake Joe, Muskoka, the summer residence of The Sisters of St. Joseph) , new furniture from Second Bloom Design (shadow box table below) and Shabby Lane Design, a new batch of face and body creams from Sigrid Natural Skincare and much more. Check things out below and of course, drop by Dandelion Mud Pie when you get the chance.

It's a Bird, It's a Plane, nooooo, it's a Sign!!

Finally, after six months of being in business, I have a sign for the front of my shop. Thanks to Catie Raymond of Off the Beaten Path Designs for this beautiful, hand-made, wood sign. Also, thanks to Laura of Echoes in the Attic, for the beautiful window display. She stopped people in their tracks when she put this display together last week using some of Sue Bedell's beautiful furniture pieces (Second Bloom Design) as well as some of her own chenille cushions. I hope I can follow it up with a pretty display when I change it at the end of the week. There are tricks to creating an eye-catching display which I am slowly learning. Fingers crossed that I can actually pull it

off, or else you know who I'll be calling.

Dandelion Wishes

Because joy is free and wishes do come true. Sometimes all you need is a gentle breeze and when you don't have that...blow!
