~ My Special Find ~

These beauties are my latest find...
I've been wanting a pair of old vintage cowboy boots now for quite sometime...
They are perfect...
A blue/grey with amazing pastel stitching & a white pinstripe down the sides...
Allan Jackson here we come...
Oh
&
Dixie Chicks too, and why not Kenny Chesney while we are at it...
We are getting some fantastic concerts here on P.E.I this summer,
and I can hardly wait to go...

This is way to funny...
 My daughter Mary Claire just came in the livingroom as I'm blogging with the cowboy boots on saying
"I'm the sheriff in this town "...
She is a riot!!!
 

Not just for concerts & dancing...
These beauties will complete many of my daily wordrobes...
A little Shabby outfit for you Leona...

O.K
 Lets get down to some home dĂ©cor inspirations now ...

~A ROSE FROM ME TO YOU~.



This white Ironstone sugar dish is a keeper...

I think this makes a romantic statement...
