St. Paddy'd Day Pretties

Happy Wednesday morning!It is pouring rain here! I mean, buckets and buckets! The winds are howling! Should be clearing up by lunch time so we'll see! Not much sun predicted this week but that's okay! I am so productive on overcast days! I have never minded them. I actually look forward to them sometimes!

I put the finishing touches on my St. Patrick's Day tree! She's all glowing green and gold! I added some St. Patrick's tags I had purchased a year ago that are glittered and that adds to the glow!
 
I love the vintage images.
The some little mugs and pots of gold! Gotta have the pots of gold, right?
 
 
That's what makes a good Leprechaun want to get up in the morning--the search for gold!
 
 
And speaking of Leprechauns, well here's one now! Well, sorry Mr. Leprechaun but if you came to my house looking for my gold, you are fresh out of luck! However if it's roosters, amish furniture,  or candles you are looking for, then this is the house for you!
 
That Leprechaun was purchased a few years back from a diner that displays crafts for sale and as you eat,  you can admire the displays and then purchase them. They are made by locals. He is fairly easy to construct with items and trims from any craft store. The added glasses make him all the more cuter though, I think!
 
 
Hope your day is filled with love and luck!  and one more thing: Welcome! to my new followers! I appreciate so much that you have stopped by and decided to stay! Love you all!

  3. Good afternoon Maggie, very sweet decorations, Mr. Leprechaun is very festive. I too wish I could find his pot of gold, but will happily settle for a good old fashioned boiled dinner...Have a great day, Julie.
