The best of enchantment

An enchanted mirror leads to your most delightful dream,go ahead and take a peek,be aware though you just may slip and come out on the other side.That's what happened to Me.
My whole world became the most blissful place of beauty.
Everyone I loved was there.
4 months old  Maddie Kaye.A blessing I never expected.
The world was made perfect for Me.
For My eyes,it was sweet.
It even smells sweet for Me.
Yes!The fragrance of fresh brewed coffee lingering in the air.Is it coming from the trees?


.......and My Lord was everywhere.
The best dream I've ever had......and I expect it to come true. Love Denise. Joining Beverly's Pink Sat. Thank you Beverly :) She's on My side bar.

Tea Time,Craft Time.....Any Time.

The only space I have left in My retirement cottage is some wall space,so whatever I make for myself I try to keep in mind--tiny or for the walls.I do like having something over the doors.This bird,cage,grape vine swag when finished will look good over a door.I do love swags and enjoy making them. I was thinking... maybe some cloth and/or ribbon off white  flowers.What would you add to this? I would love some ideas. 



I'm still trading tags,they're small and fun to collect from around the US or even the world.This one is from Karla Jackson @ Sketchbooks ATC Mail Art.

That's the fun I have when I'm not ....



babysitting these tiny loves of My life.






I do also make quite time for reflection  and fun of Tea ,Coffee and going out with hubby.

This morning I picked Chocolate Hazelnut from Stash.


My all time favorite magazine-Romantic Country.It seems all My other faves have changed over the last years.This beautiful magazine still pleases Me.


Thanks for joining Me again in My library for Tea Time and Craft Time,Love Denise

From the Fairy Godmother Meeryweather, to Fairy Mary.


Even as a child I loved Sleeping Beauty.From the kiss I dreamed of and knew I would  eventually get. Anticipating awaking as a beautiful grown woman.I also loved the enchantment of the......



Fairy Godmothers,  Flora wears red, Fauna wears green and Merryweather wears blue.  

Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather.

They were each so easy for Me to relate to and I always loved them . To later in life, the fairies of Pixie Hallow.....

Esp. Fairy Mary,the boss and overseer of all the fairies and works directly under Queen Clarion.

Fairy Mary,I think I just may have turned into Her sometime through My life  ; ) I'm joining Collage Obsession for a fairy tale party and Alderberry Hill ,Make a Scene Party

Be Still


God's Voice
-stills you
-leads you
-reassures you
-enlightens you
-encourages you
-comforts you
-calms you
-convicts you
Satan's voice
-rushes you
-pushes you
-frightens you
confuses you
-discourages you
-worries you
-obsesses you
-condemns you
John 10:27 "My sheep listen to My voice, and I know them and they follow Me." ----------                 Thank you for all the prayers.My tiny Granddaughter is home from the hospital and all is well now.It's a true blessing to have so many Christian women responding so quickly to an immediate need.One of the benefits to blogging and FB. When I was shaky with fear and fatigue, others stepped in and held Me up,just as with Moses.Thank you-Love Denise

One of my favourite songs that makes me realise God’s always around. — Dancing with God, Verse 1: You dance over me While I am unaware, You sing all around But I never hear the sound, Chorus: Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You How You love me Verse 2: You paint the moring sky With miracles in mind, My hope will always stand, For You hold me in Your hand.
