Phase 2 of The House Behind The Trees ~ The downstairs #TeelsBuildaHouse

So we are starting the downstairs ... I HATE to say basement because we had a basement in our old home, where you opened a door and went down stairs separated from anything else. It was a finished basement complete with a bedroom, craft room, family/game room and we spent a lot of time there ~ our oldest son moved down there in jr high and stayed through high school ... until we finished the master suite in the attic then he moved back up to the bedroom floor with his brother and sister.  So here our downstairs is open to the rest of the house, you can see through to the outside from the top of the stairs going down because we have a wall of windows down there as well.  We really didn't plan to have a kiddo down there but since we are having to do a switch-a-roo with rooms (I'll explain later) he is moving home soon and will be downstairs. Anyhoo, our downstairs will house our main family room, our middle sons room, a full bath and kitchenette.  I thought it would be fun ...

Snow-Snow Go away! Spring Lines are here to stay!






Well, since my last post a month ago - I really don't know where December went - we are still buried in snow here in Northwest Missouri! While I actually love looking at it, I think I'm do now and ready for Spring Flowers! We have now had about 14 inches since Christmas with about 10 still on the ground. And guess what...as I type it is SNOWING again with 6 inches estimated. My kids are never going back to school!!!!

Well because we haven't been able to leave the house since Christmas Day I have been able to start my Spring lines. I am in love the fabrics I bought last last fall when they were on clearance - as much clearance as Hancocks of Paducah gets :) and have had soooo much fun putting things together. Right now all I have are knot dresses and tunic with pants...yes I said pants, but don't worry overalls are coming. I have had more contacts in the last 2 days for overalls than I had the month of December. Ususally January is slow so I have plenty of time to work on the new lines but the last few days have been busy for business, YEAH!!!

Here are a few pictures of the new lines and I will also pick a few of my favorites to sell right here on this site rather than redirecting you to ebay or etsy.

Once again have a blessed week and a very blessed NEW YEAR! God bless - Kari
