April 1st, Favorite Color

Citysonnet has posted her photo challenge list for the month of April. I think that I can honestly say that, even thought I love shades of blue, a soft yellow is probably my favorite. It is such a happy color. My kitchen is small so I painted it a creamy yellow to make the room lighter and to give the feel of a happy place.

I decorated this grapevine wreath to add more yellow accents to the room. Yellow always reminds me of the many bright colors of yellow flowers, happy flowers. Below are a few of mine from last year – can’t wait to see them this year.

In closing, I remind you of the beauty and happiness of kindness. Share it often.

August Colors and Letters Challenge

Citysonnet gives us such a fun challenge for the month and when I saw the color challenge for today…my favorite color…well…

I had to show you the t-shirt that my daughter gave me for my birthday last year that shows…my favorite color(s).

If you follow my blog at all, then you know I am a little over the top at Christmas. My oldest tree(1 of 5) is really tired this year, so I will half to buy a new one…oh darn…lol.

And I remind you as always try hard to be kind…..color kindness wherever you are and in all that you do.

July Colors ‘n Letters

I have been meaning to play along with CitySonnet’s challenges this month and just haven’t so I am jumping in with the last two days together – Jellyfish and Algae green as they both have to do with water.

I love the different things that you can find at true art fairs, not the ones that draw you in only to be crafts fairs or someone junk. There is one that I miss going to in Georgia over Labor Day that is usually fabulous and I picked up these two paper weights of jellyfish. He told me that he did not color them that this was their actual color and since my knowledge of jellyfish would not fill a small seashell, I believed him, as they were still fascinating.

The bubbles add a special realistic look to them. He did tell me that he swirled one as the solution was getting thick to give the “arms” their fashion flare.

I thought I would show both sides as it is such an interesting creature, at least to me. And the large bubbles make it look alive. And since they are almost algae green, I thought they were green enough to pass for July 31st challenge.

As you browse over all the thinks that you enjoy that ,make you smile, remember to share that smile with someone who may not have a smile. Your smile could be just the thing to bring a smile to them.
