Hello friends!
Today we woke up to a 31-degree morning, which is pretty cold for November in NC. My heart goes out to our friends in the mid-west who have it so much worse with their early snowfall. I hope that you are all doing well!
Recently I purchased some lace fabrics and trim on Etsy, and most of them were in winter whites, so I couldn't resist pairing them with some of my vintage winter photos on burlap linen.
Do you remember when you were little and
your mom bundled you up so tightly that
you could barely walk?
But if you did as you were told,
she rewarded you with a ride on your
sled.
Of course, she was all bundled up too!
When you grew up,
you got to skate with your friend.
You were still bundled up against
the cold.
Well, maybe not as much as
when you were little!
Wherever you are,
enjoy the season!
Thanks for coming by.
This week I will join Wen's Simply Neutrals Tuesday.

DeleteSo beautiful! I have lovely photos of my husband as a baby, all bundled up in his winter whites, so pretty. Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteHello Valerie. Husbands as babies all bundled up. A funny picture if your husband is anything like mine. I can barely get him to put on a jacket when its freezing cold outside. It must be a man thing! Hugs back!
DeleteDear Sue, you have gathered such beautiful laces and old photos here. A beautiful combination. And I loved reading your wonderful post, brings back sweet childhood memories :) Sending you hugs and sunshine, xx
ReplyDeleteDo kids even sled anymore? Or do they just stay inside all winter and play computer games? Thanks for your comments Wen! Hugs and sunshine back to you! XO
