I love Mama's little yellow hen, she used to have that sitting on her kitchen table, it holds a little candle :) There was a time when she lived here in town and our daughter was a toddler. I had a problem with my child care giver and Mama said I don't know why you don't bring her here . . . so Mama watched her for about a year and a half until she started kindergarten. It was good for all of us. I would leave work and go to Mama's for lunch most everyday and that little hen was always lit, so it brings back warm memories of having lunch with Mama :) I miss her. She passed a way in 2006 one day short of her 100th birthday. Wow! You hit on a memory didn't you, LOL.

Actually the living room was a waste of space, although; it was lovely having a room that was always neat as a pin if surprise company showed up :) With our country home we have a larger lot (one acre) and we each have a shop for our creative sides. It's perfect for us and has caused a big change in the way we live. Now we garden and the garden gets bigger every year. We have learned to can and so we put up our food and live from the garden all year. There is much more outside work to do here, but I think having things to do out in the fresh air and sweating from enjoyable labor is a good thing and will hopefully keep us healthier than we would have been with the tiny yard we had at our old home. So for us, we downsized and up sized at the same time, LOL. It's a great place to retire and we are blessed with the best ever neighbors, life is good! I'm so happy that you are following my blog. Blogging sisters are great company and always there to encourage and inspire.

At Home Depot they sell those side boards with the little holes drilled in them for supporting adjustable shelves. It was really quite easy to build using them. I supported mine to the wall and then added molding at the top where it touches the ceiling.

When we moved here I looked at putting in a new rod, but done were as strong as this one, so I kept it and purchased galvanized buckets and containers to store stuff in. It worked and now with the farmhouse look it works even better than before, LOL.
