"Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother

You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive

Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'

And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive

Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive 

Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive (ohh)

Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me

Somebody help me, yeah

Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah

I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire - Happy Caturday and a Happy St. Valentine's Day

I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire

Happy Caturday and A Happy Valentine's Day Weekend to all 
I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire ~ 

Guy Lombardo and His Royal Canadians

I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
In my heart I have but one desire
And that one is you
No other will do
I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just want to be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of
Believe me
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart

MAGGIE MAY & BATMAN

Our sweethearts, Maggie May & Batman are all snuggled and cozy and ready for bed. Maggie May's nickname derives from the Rod Stewart song of the same name. Maggie is a little princess and loves human companionship. She loves to cuddle and kiss and can't be left alone.

And Batman, well, Little Bat and his sister were orphaned and left in the cold. The little cat that looked more like a tiny teeny bat fought the odds and lives today with a passion for studying the wildlife in our front yard.

Goodnight Sweehearts♥️❤️🐾🐾🐾🐾♥️❤️

Food for The Soul

My morning breakfast came with love. I was so surprised to find a heart in my last piece of toast and of all days on February 1st❤️ 

This was not photoshopped or engineered in any way. I think someone is watching me from above ; )

Valentine's Day came early : )♥️

SEASONS OUT OF TIME - VELVET PUMPKINS

Velvet Pumpkins in blue velvet with tiny real pumpkin stems, vintage porcelain Forget-Get-Not flowers, german glass glitter, silver hearts and, dot confetti. 

 I'm living in the past in a season out of time, watching old film reels and creating old vintage souvenirs. Seasons out of time always seem to inspire me the most. I'm not sure if it's my longing for a season or just something from that time of year I miss. Maybe, there's good reason for my fanciful twists in the year. Maybe, I traveled here from somewhere out of time : ) Or maybe, it's just my way of living in my happy place.

 

THE PERFECT BAT 🦇 FOR THE HALLOWEEN TREE

THE PERFECT BAT 🦇 FOR THE HALLOWEEN TREE

Whenever I paint or create often, I return to it and make minor adjustments.
The Halloween Tulle Tree I made earlier this week was cute but, the little bat sticker disappeared into the tree branches: a bit too small for the tree.
I rummaged through my Halloween decorations for my little sparkly bats and found the perfect bat. The funny thing is, my Halloween ornaments are slowly coming out of hibernation in January when Valentine's Day is just around the corner. Oh well, it turned out for the better. I love my little Halloween tree even more now.


I ended up using E6000 for adhering the sparkly bat to the tree with a black pipe cleaner, adding the tiny ghost to a branch permanently with hot glue. I believe The Halloween Tree is done for now until I find the perfect little ornaments for it. I hope you like it.

   A Song I discovered this morning

I love it!

Cemetery Trees - Valley of The Bears

and A Poem 

Teeny Tiny Ghost

A teeny, tiny ghost
no bigger than a mouse
at most,
lived in a great big house

It's hard to haunt
a great big house
when you're a teeny, tiny ghost
no bigger than a mouse
at most.

He did what he could do.

So every dark and stormy night
the kind that shakes the house with fright -
if you stood still and listened right,
you'd hear a
teen tiny

Boo!

 I finally got around to making a Christmas Tulle Tree, well not exactly, I made a Halloween Tulle Tree. Since I didn't have the supplies for the Christmas Tulle Tree I decided to make one for Halloween. There are many tutorials for Tulle Christmas Trees online and I decided on using THE HALLMARK CHANNEL - TULLE TREES tutorial.

I used a vintage metal pot I found at the Manse garage sale in Kemptville, a woodblock for the inside, drilled a hole for the tree trunk recycled from a paintbrush. To make the trunk straight I used coffee stir sticks jammed in the edges of the woodblock, no glue was needed except for the top of the tree to cover the top with tulle. The bat top is made of two bat stickers and of course, the sparkly tulle I used was from an old Halloween costume I cut up into 12 x 3 strips and decreased their length by an inch when I was halfway up the tree trunk. 

Maybe my next tree I will try making rosettes of varying sizes and see what that will look like. I do like this one with its very own little tree skirt. Too adorable!

A COUNTRY ESCAPE ♥️

A COUNTRY ESCAPE

Happy am I when I slip into bed-
I dream of a pastoral place,
A country escape,
And find heaven on earth

There’s a cottage @ Rideau Ferry, it’s name - “Heaven on Earth” and I think it is😇

This lovely mixed media painting is a treasure I found on one of my shopping trips, unfortunately, the artist didn’t sign their name to the artwork.

Tales From The Darkside

"I wish I could write as mysterious as a cat" ~ E.A.pOE


I believe Bat and Maggie have kept a secret from us; they are the secret authors of "Tales From The Darkside": )
