While I'm working at home, I'm usually parked on the couch, cat in the lap with the TV tuned to TCM. I've been catching so many great movies lately. One day there was a Barbara Stanwyck marathon (if you haven't seen Baby Face, you're missing out!), the next day a Katherine Hepburn marathon. I'm looking forward to the upcoming spotlight on Kay Francis. Even when I'm too busy to actually pay attention to the story lines I'm drawn in by the wardrobe and styling of the movies. You'd think the whole world used to live in floor length, bias cut satin gowns! In other words, I'm up to my ears in vintage movie inspiration and I think it's beginning to show.

  • Hello everyone, It's a busy week still yet here. ...

    Hello everyone,

    It's a busy week still yet here. I did want to get on here to tell everyone that I closed down "Amish Rugs and more". I do want to thank all of you who have bought rugs from my site. As you know Herman makes some wonderful rugs and they last for a very long time. We just had a lack of sales this last couple of months so I decided it was time to shut it down.
