The Good Witch,Bad Witch!

Wow almost the end of Oct.already. There is snow on the ground. The cold wind is howling.  Now weather the snow stays it is hard to say. If it does it will make for a very,very long winter. Hot or cold,snow or no snow the kids will be at the door for trick or treats Wednesday.  This pic was created a few years ago.Happy Halloween.    Original   g.a.s. design. 

Old But Beautiful

One of many old homes along the back roads of Saskatchewan.

A peek inside,from the door way.

Well loved. 

Well worn.

This last picture is of my Great Grandparent's home.

 Driving down the many country roads in Saskatchewan you will see old homesteads. Large homes where families laughed and cried together, celebrated holidays and birthdays together. Where memories were made and still remembered. One can't help but wonder? Who lived there?  Who was there decorator?

Things we have on hand

Anyone that knows me, knows I have a very LARGE assortment of supplies in  my studio just in case. One just never knows when they will have an idea.  To not have the supplies on hand would never do. Example: A while back we had a water line break on the street in front of our house. At the same time it had been raining for almost a week straight, which only added to the muck and mess on the street. So to make the situation a little lighter for those that had there driveways blocked by the mess. I just happen to have on hand something I thought would help.
So late one night (it had to be late at night I didn't want the neighborhood to know who did it,like they would never know.  ya right!) in the rain slipping and sliding in the muck, shovel in one hand shoes and leg in the other. The hole was dug. The leg was planted. I don't think they ever found the rest of the lady that belonged to the leg. In fact the leg also went missing. giggle.
 You just never know what might come in handy.  g.a.s.
