If your heart is in your dream No request is too extreme When you wish upon a star As dreamers do. Fate is kind She brings to those to love The sweet fulfillment of Their secret longing. Like a bolt out of the blue Fate steps in and sees you through Your dreams come true." (Disney Theme Song) |

My grama made it for me when I was about 16 - that's 50 years ago gf! Oh my! I have my grama's red kitchen chair too - but, oh my - the tole painting is gorgeous! Your post is just a lot of fun for me to look at today! Blessings!

just dropping by to say hi

Such pretty treasures all around. I love the sweet red polka dots from your Hubby. The little blue apron is adorable. I love all these pretties in this post. Must go back for a second look. Have a wonderful week yourself!
I love polka dots too! And the color red!

Hello sweetheart Carolynn! You are so kind! I am very happy you liked your gifts. They look so happy in your beautiful cottage! Your hubby is so sweet and knows exactly what you love! He blessed you with such lovely red pretties! I love all of your darling vignettes and the apron is beautiful!!! So happy for you! Love you! Your girlie~ Paula xo
Hi Carolynn, you sure do have a treasure trove there of lovely and precious reds! I especially like that little chair..it is adorable!
This is a really nice post...just full of pretty things. Love every thing you are sharing with us...:))
Oh the red stool is so special. Love it and all of your wonderful treasures. Thanks for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
Carolynn, one of the things that I like so much about you is the way that you surround yourself with the things that you love and mean the most to you. And I think when you do that, you can't help but be content at home! Loving the vintage red chair, and all of the thoughtful gifts you were showered with!
I just loooove the red things in your home. My grandmother had the same kitchen stool, but I think it was white? and certainly not tole-painted. And I loooove Raggedy Ann and Andy.
The chair and the polka dotted pot are so beautiful!
You surely have been putting on the red, my friend! Love it all!
Brenda
Hi Carolynn! I'm so glad you got to stop by. Love all your red of course, but your red gingham background is great! I am partial to gingham ya know.
I love all your dishes and decorations. My sweet mother-in-law had the same red with with white snow flake dishes. She loves gingem and red is her favorite color too! Thank you for sharing all your lovelies! Blessings to you today!
What bright and pretty blog post! I love all your red!
That stool! I used to sit and eat on one of those at my great-aunt's house! I had forgotten all about it. Hers was painted yellow.
Blessings
Linda
It's a treasure trove of pretties!! And wow did you ever get some lovelies! I really love that kitty and the blue and white creamer...they just stuck out to me for some reason...maybe because I'm adopted too!
Thank you so much for visiting my blog and being a part of my Pearls and Lace party again this week!!
Blessings,
Doni
So many vintage pretties! Thank you for joining Home Sweet Home!
Sherry
Lucky ducky!
Can't go wrong with red or polka dots! Love them both.
Everything is as cheerful and delightful as usual, Carolynn. It's such a delight to stop by your place. I stopped by earlier this week but was running out the door and could not commnent. LOVE the apron and the polka dot plates are ADORABLE. How special from hubby. :)
Have a beautiful weekend, friend.
XOXO's
Carolynn,
My kids LOVE LOVE Disney and have season passes, so right away, I knew this Disney song. Love the polka dot tea pot. I am a polka dot girl too. I adore the color red, but I just changed my kitchen from red to turquoise for a bit of a change. I will never tire of red though, the color is still in my bedroom. You have so many lovelies on here today. I smiled when I saw the handmade dolls, as I love cloth dolls. Nel had a raggedy ann doll when she was a little girl, and to this day, she still treasures it. I truly love your BIG font that you have on here. However do you get it so big? Have a wonderful weekend, Carolynn.
~Sheri at Red Rose Alley
Oh! What a happy blog you have. It made me smile!!
Dottie
Carolynn, I saw that you won the apron and I was thrilled. Looked just like you! You have so many special people in your life. Could it be that you are so loved because you are so loving? I would 'say yes'! Love the play pals and kitty that Paula made. Polka dots make me smile! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann

Hi Miz Caro-line,

I hope you are well and ready for spring, it is close. I bought some bulbs, but we are a bit cold just now to plant anything. I am always busy, careing for Mom is overwhelming. We have had the colds and just staying warm as of late. I think of you often, sending a southern huggggg...
Love
