THERE ARE FRIENDS, THEN THERE IS FAMILY. BUT ONCE IN A WHILE, THERE ARE FRIENDS THAT BECOME FAMILY.

FRIENDSGIVING, A DAY TO GIVE THANKS AND CELEBRATE OUR FRIENDS THAT ARE FAMILY.

FRIENDSGIVING IS A FEELING OF GRATITUDE FOR THE FAMILY YOUR HEART PICKS, SO HAPPY YOU’RE PART OF MINE.

MAKE NEW FRIENDS BUT KEEP THE OLD, ONE IS SILVER THE OTHER IS GOLD.

WITH FRIENDS LIKE THIS, THE REST IS JUST GRAVY.

THANKSGIVING RECIPE FOR FRIENDSHIP: A GENEROUS CUP OF BLESSINGS, A TABLESPOON OF REFLECTION AND A HANDFUL OF MEMORIES MIXED TOGETHER. A GOOD HELPING OF HUGS AND LAUGHTER, A PINT OF TIME WITH FRIENDS & FAMILY, THEN MIX WITH LOVE.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM MORNING TO NIGHT, HOPE WHATEVER YOU DO BRINGS YOU JOY AND DELIGHT. HOPE FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND THOSE YOU HOLD DEAR, MAKE MAGICAL MEMORIES YOU’LL CHERISH ALL YEAR.


HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO MY FAMILY AND DEAR FRIENDS, THAT I AM HONORED AND BLESSED TO HAVE IN MY LIFE. MAY THIS HOLIDAY SEASON BRING LOVE TO YOUR HEART, HEALTH TO YOUR BODY AND PEACE AND JOY TO YOUR HOME THROUGHOUT THE NEW YEAR.

WE SHOULD CERTAINLY COUNT OUR BLESSINGS, BUT WE SHOULD ALSO MAKE OUR BLESSINGS COUNT.


HELLO NOVEMBER! THANK YOU FOR REMINDING US THAT WE HAVE SO MUCH TO BE GRATEFUL FOR!


EVERY DAY HOLDS SOMETHING TO BE THANKFUL FOR, EVEN IF IT’S JUST THE AIR YOU BREATHE OR THE SUN ON YOUR FACE. GRATITUDE DOESN’T HAVE TO BE GRAND, IT’S IN THE LITTLE MOMENTS THAT MAKE LIFE BEAUTIFUL. EMBRACE THOSE MOMENTS AND YOU’LL FIND ENDLESS REASONS TO FEEL BLESSED.

MAY YOUR STUFFING BE TASTY, MAY YOUR TURKEY BE PLUMP, MAY YOUR POTATOES AND GRAVY HAVE NARY A LUMP. MAY YOUR YAMS BE DELICIOUS AND YOUR PIES TAKE THE PRIZE AND MAY YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF YOUR THIGHS!

I AM SO GRATEFUL, NO MATTER HOW MUCH TURKEY I EAT, MY EARRINGS WILL ALWAYS FIT.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! DON’T FORGET TO SET YOUR SCALES BACK 10 POUNDS TONIGHT!



“COME LITTLE LEAVES,” SAID THE WIND ONE DAY. “COME DOWN TO THE MEADOW AND WE CAN PLAY. PUT ON YOUR DRESS OF RED AND GOLD, FOR SUMMER IS PAST AND THE DAYS GROW COLD.” DANCING AND LEAPING THE LEAVES WENT ALONG, UNTIL WINTER CALLED THEM TO END THEIR SWEET SONG. SOON, FAST ASLEEP IN THEIR EARTHY BEDS, THE SNOW LAY A COVERLET OVER THEIR HEADS.


ORANGE PUMPKINS FULL AND ROUND, CORNSTALKS GATHERED ON THE GROUND, BLUE SKIES CLEAR AND AUTUMN BRIGHT. HARVEST MOONS AND FROST AT NIGHT, LEAVES RAKED HIGH IN GREAT BIG PILES, NOVEMBER SIGHTS BRING THANKFUL SMILES.

WISHING YOU A THANKSGIVING FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER AND GRATITUDE. MAY YOUR HEART BE AS FULL AS YOUR PLATE.

THIS SEASON REMINDS ME JUST HOW THANKFUL I AM FOR YOU. HERE’S TO A THANKSGIVING AS SWEET AS PIE!

THANK YOU LORD FOR THE FOOD BEFORE US, THE FRIENDS BESIDE US AND THE LOVE AMONG US.






CRISP AIR, CRUNCHY LEAVES AND A LITTLE STRAW IN MY HAIR.

DON’T BE A TURKEY AND NOT LEAVE A COMMENT, WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING, IDEA AND FAVORITE VIGNETTE. HAPPY TURKEY! GOBBLE GOBBLE.
Another gorgeous display of your attention to detail. I love copper and it looks fabulous with the green and hints if amber and wood. Why is my favorite area always the top of the cabinets?! I can’t wait to see what you do this year for Christmas! 🎄 🤶
Thank you for being my friend and for sharing your amazing ability to create a beautiful work of art using your collection of Glass, copper and scarfs and all the other little things you add. I loved the whole display looking from the bar to counter and wall over the stove and you know I love the touches of Amber glass throughout.
I almost forgot I loved the Littles you had placed around the room. You have inspired me to do more at home. Please continue doing your reveals so we can all share with you.
Love you, girl.
Absolutely breath taking. I have to say my favorite is the dining room table with the beautiful green
glass as well as the homemade silverware holders. The entire display was perfectly designed. I can’t wait to see what you do next. Fantastic Imagination.
Once again I am amazed at your talent to put things you have collected over the years together to look so wonderful! I consider having you as my friend for 51 years one of the greatest blessings in my life! love watching and listening to you put these ideas in your head together to make these fabulous blogs so others can enjoy your talents. I really like the way you are having us over to have the reveal parties. I really love those cake plates stacked together. Love you my J.
Well here I go again trying to not say this is my favorite of all. But I love the copper so much. I almost have to say it’s my favorite. The touches of green are fantastic and I love your wonderful creative idea of standing the silverware up in the wood disk. It was so much fun to see this in person with our group of friends for a true Friendsgiving. I especially love the copper pots hanging across the back of your stove. That is the best way of displaying copper pots that I have ever seen. Thanks again Janice for showing such wonderfull creativity for all your friends and family to enjoy.
