headless
like I've lost my mind
like a chicken with its her head cut off
you get the idea
~

shh...don't tell anyone
but
I'm supposed to be working
I just had to take a break
I couldn't let another WW go by
without me.
we always forget how crazy it gets
and
how big of a push it is
to pull it all together
I've saved these pics of my manny
for a day just like this
~

I promised you a sneek peek.
so here it goes.
it is not pretty.
yet.
I think the hardest part of all
is
the transition
from storage/work area
to
show space.
And that requires moving
everything
at least
3
times.
Here are some very
*in the rough*
pics of my shop
Better get going before I'm caught slacking!
Happy White Wednesday to all!

this is so beautiful.
i have visit your blog several times and have a link on my blog to yours.
your photos give me a lot of inspiration and you are a talend in decoration
you have no idea how much i would dearly love to come to your sale...everything...and i do mean everything looks absolutely beautiful...your mannequin is a stunner...i love how you have her outfitted...she is perfection!!!
I LOVE that your bathtub is just like mine! Non-working, no fixtures, no plumbing. I keep waiting, one day I dream of bubble baths each time I glance at it. I love all the pictures, they are all beautiful.
Take care, Sue
Hi Rene :) I know exactly how you feel sometimes....lots of things going on all at once, trying to get it all done, and literally feeling my head's been cut off :) Your manni looks beautiful, by the way! Someday I hope to own a vintage one, but for now I have a newer one that I've dressed up with a gorgeous vintage pink dress, apron, and some bling, and topped of the top with a vintage rose hat :) She looks pretty good I think. If you'd like to see her, she's my March 12th post:)
That dresser is looking pretty good, just like it is now, and loved the peeks into your work space. Looks like my sewing room, with fabric strewn all over the place...looks like a tornado went thru, lol :)
Have a great rest of the week!
Warmest, Brenda
Hey good luck this weekend. Hope I can find myself over there and see how beautiful everything looks. WISH I could come and help! Miss you.
Your pictures are just stunning, I went back several times looking at them. I understand what your going thru having to turn what your using for storage and work space into a show place, I'm kinda having to do the same thing, and I'm really getting worn out from it, so I feel your pain!!! Blessings~~~Daphne
Oh my, thanks for the sneak peek! Loe the mannequin, she is beautiful, yes, I have to picture a head on her. The way you dressed her is absolutely gorgeous. I can't even imagine the hard work involved getting ready for a show! I'd love to be there too.
No slacking!
Nancy
Oh how I would love to step inside
this computer and take my choice of everything you own...be still my heart! LOL!
All that gorgeous lace and trim just make me swoon with envy.
I love the idea of the old claw foot tub, so cute!
hugs
Sissie
I love your pictures .You have alot of work . I grew up with that kind of tub it was aways too short.We sold the house with it it was too heavy to move. Laura Q
Lovely pics and lots of yummy items I'd love to give a home to! If manny ever requires a holiday in Oz just book a ticket, LOL! Isn't she fabulous!
Oh my...makes my head spin just thinking about all the work. Maybe mine will fall off and I will come join you as the headless women who love White Wednesdays! Wish I could come and visit in person to see it all , instead of through your pics. but that is better than nothing! Have a great time. Big Breaths and a nice calming cup or tea..... It will get done. :-)
Who needs a head when you look soooo good from your neck down?????? LOL! That dress form is 2DIE4! Good luck with the sale!
Best of luck to you on the shop. Lots and lots of hard work, but soo rewarding afterwards. Hang in there and please do take breaks with us.
Beautiful...and it will be a great success as usual. Remember to have fun!
What a BARN! I am so jealous. Thank you for showing us. Rita
Lovely....
Whites as far as the eye can see!!!!

Such a way you have of putting things together! I always love stopping here. Glad you took the time to post--I'll miss a lot of things now and then, but I sure hate to miss WW! Best to you--Jacqueline
I forgot where you live.....not Ca, right.
I would drive a LONG way for a barn sale like yours....and your bathroom pics are breathtaking. I want to soak in your tub!
Hello Rene... I love how you have outfitted your lady... the lace the millenery flowers, drop dead gorgeous!
Bella
How pretty! Love your work area! I could get lost there for a few hours everyday. Wonderful whites!
Sherry
When I saw your manny, Renee, it took my breath away! She is gorgeous! No doubt the best I've seen...and she looks so at home in your new bedroom!
Can I come play in your shop???? Looks like so much fun! I can only dream of something like that...but who knows what the future holds!
Happy White Wednesday!

I so understand what you're saying!! In fact for the last three or four months I haven't been able to locate my head! One of these days I'll join you again on WW! I know you and your master plan will be executed wonderfully! I can't wait to see pictures...wish I could come to your showing!!
My very best,

Rene, One word, BEAUTIFUL!! I love all the lace and how your combined it all. I have a manny, too and I will try to make her look a little more like yours. Thanks for sharing.
Oh I love the pics... I love the color you give them. Are you using something special to create that? I need to learn more about how to work with photos...
LOVE your pictures today! You are always soooooo inspirational:)

I love your blog and this is the reason why. Beautiful colors and subjects and your shop looks pretty even when you don't think it does. You have to have a mess before you can have pretty - right!! The moving - now that's hard. Take care of yourself through all of this. Diane

Oh Rene! LOVING your mannequin and marvelous bath! Happy White Wednesday!

Looks pretty good for being "in the rough". Good luck, I'm sure it will all fall into place(including your head) and be marvelous. Somehow it always does.
