Little Changes…

I made a few changes to an area on my kitchen counter…moved the marble thingy that I got at a yard sale for $2 from my island to the counter where it shows up so much better…

As a little side note, I would like to point out that , as most of you know, I have a few cats….well, more than a few….okay I have four!  HOWEVER, we do NOT allow our cats to get on the counters….it is simply not allowed and is against the rules…and they all know this and abide by this rule….at all times….

Yeah buddy!  They toe the line around our house!

Hope you are having a great week and STAYING WARM!!

    LOL! My next door neighbor's cat is "trained" to come when they clap. She does, but she is also "trained" not to cross the street, a rule which she clearly flaunts. But I can point my finger at her and tell her to go home, and she does!

    To funny! Our dog has full rein at our house. She can get on the furniture and beds. She is so spoiled. Snow is forecast here later today and tomorrow. I'm glad, if it's gonna be this cold I would like something to show for it. =) You stay warm also!!

    Your vignette is so pretty! Love all the thingys you've used! Oh and there is nothing more wonderful than 'trained' pets! :) You know that is darling seeing those little fuzzy faces all popped up on the counters looking all smug! :)
    be a sweetie,

    HAHA! Too funny! I love your vignette! I've tried forever to use little lamps like that on my counters and I just can't ever make them look right.....maybe it's time to try again!

    Yes, I can see the fear of your wrath on this cat's face, Lou Cinda! Love this display and your lampshade. It reminds me of the one I just got recently for my little kitchen lamp.

    Love the new vignette! I'm sure that Bella the cat was just trying to show her support for your creative efforts. When you live with three guys in the house the cats are usually the only ones who take note when you make these little changes in your rooms. Those changes are totally lost on men. Ha!

    Thhe marble thing was a great buy...it's perfect for creating little arrangements on. I love this.

    My dog sleeps on the kitchen table. It's the only way he can see out the window and I feel sorry for him. I do clean the table before we eat!!

    Love that vignette Lou Cinda!Great score on that marble! Yeppers I too have a cat who's the picture of feline obedience! Come to think of it my dogs are pretty much equally obedient.Lol! Don't they say that owners begin to resemble their pets or vice versa? Because that is one gorgeous cat!! *winks* My Jordan is scrappy and kinda chunky! *winks* Yep I'm afraid it's true! Vanna

    When I first looked at those cherries I thought they had little nails in them and was wondering why you did that. Then I figured out they were the stems. I am not blond but I do color my hair so maybe the dye is affecting me! Oh yeah by the way...you can't train cats anyway.....

    Your new vignette is so sweet and pretty. I was thinking it would make for a great still life painting when I scrolled down to the cat pics and I had a great laugh. Too cute.
