Some Temptations



Just serving up a few sumptuous morsels! Gretchen's hand painted and distressed trays from $40-250. Sizes and colors vary. This particular Tray: $120. It's a nice, useful size for serving up...well, just about anything! ;-)




Here's another view, this time with some luscious strawberries: yum!



Speaking of luscious, is there anything more delicious than baby toes? We don't think there is, so we are having these adorable Baby Feet cast for us by friends in Honduras. They will be available for purchase this Fall.



Here is our newest Little Soul, Katie Yatie. Doesn't she look adorable with her sparkly green shades? This girl has an attitude like a ginger snap, spunky and sweet and just plain fun! (Don't dunk her in a glass of milk though!) Katie Yatie, approximately 18" high: $300



A work in progress! Gretchen is really into old medicine cabinets these days, stripping them down and re-creating them as Love-Medicine Cabinets! Stay tuned for more of these magical assemblages (you can glimpse another in the the photo of Katie Yatie, above!)



We just love this vintage pressed-tin coffee pot painted in bright blue with brilliant marigold orange rust spots! What a score by our eagle-eyed Colleen! Approximately 14" high, and topped by a tiny bluebird of happiness, this one of a kind thrift-shop find is no longer intended for culinary use, but it makes a tasty color accent wherever we put it. Vintage Blue Coffee Pot: $80  buy it directly from Etsy.com http://www.etsy.com/listing/59695002/blue-pitcher




The Hens and Chicks are coming right along in Gretchen's nursery. She loves these succulent little beauties and relishes growing and propagating them with her own fair hands! They seem to bring out the mother hen in many women. You should see Gretchen and Nancy Bea leaning over the pots, clucking and cooing!



Namaste you guys! Come back soon for a glimpse inside the house, and a sneak peek at Gretchen's fabulous art collection!
