I’m taking the weekend to have a little birthday fun!
Who knows where it will lead but I’m sure I will enjoy it!
I treated myself to something special from Etsy.
I searched Etsy for a ‘heart banner’ and
found the perfect banner for my window at Robinhill Quilts!
(she sent me a pretty strawberry, too!)
And later I found out she had a blog so I visited her at her blog HERE !
Do you like this special touch in my dreamy bedroom?
The hearts are cut from an old quilt
…
but not the one I’ve been working on!
I’ll have the ‘latest’ news of the old red quilt SOON!
So enjoy your weekend!
I wonder where my birthday dress is and my white sandals
and if my mother can trim my bangs any shorter!!!
See you back here in a couple of days!
♥
I’m sure I’ll have some photos to share!

Happy, Happy Birthday! And I love the Heart Banner. It fits your window area just perfectly! I laughed when I read the part about your mom cutting your bangs too short! My mom always did that, too. She'd trim one side and then say, "Oh, it's uneven. Now I just need to trim a little bit more on this side...." etc! Pretty soon...No Bangs! I learned at a very young age to hide when she came toward with "her barber" scissors! :D
Happy Birthday! It's my birthday too on Sunday! I really like the heart banner.
I had too short bangs as well as a "Toni" perm. Remember those?
Blessings

Happy Birthday and I am sending you all the best here from the Philippines. You deserve all the happiness in the world. Enjoy your day and share to us how you spent it.
Are we both birthday girls this month? Happy Birthday to the Queen of Everything! I love the picture of you when you were little. I am posting all about PLAY today and I have a feeling you know exactly how to do that...after all these years.
May the coming year be filled with joy and happiness and peace for you.
I have my first grandchild coming in mid May Diane and my daughter getting married the first of June. It will be a year to remember for sure!

Hope you had a very happy birthday! I was a January baby too :) What a sweet photo of you... so pretty! Love the banner ~ beautiful touch to your bedroom. I admire your red quilt... one thing I can't do YET is sew... someday!!
Happy Birthday!!
Your childhood photo brought back so many memories.My hair was so blonde it looked almost white when I was little and it did not start to change until I was around 10. My mom not only liked to cut my hair short..Like maybe 2 inches long, but she would perm it..and then it was even shorter..it would take almost a year to grow out and then she would do the same thing again. But one good thing did come out of it...I can perm hair..I decided about 10 years ago not to perm it any more and have been happy with it.
You Valentine decor is so sweet, especially the garland. And, the Gulf Coast pictures are awesome.
Smiles and Huggs to my friend.
Happy Happy Birthday! Hope it is a fantastic weekend and I'm so glad you found just the right swag for your beautiful bedroom!
Love the picture of you in your fancy dress! I have pictures with bangs like those too. What were our mothers thinking? LOL
