Checks

I love checks, especially black and white, blue and white, and red and white! They are so crisp and clean looking. Just some random shots I took around the house. I also love polka dots, but I'll save that for another day.
I am off to Wing Haven today( the garden where I volunteer) to plan the plant orders for our fall sale in the nursery. Here in NC, the fall is the best time to plant new things.
Hope you have a good day.

    Thanks for stopping in for a visit...I'm hoping the insurance takes care of everything. I just want the kid to pay for what he did..he's really a trouble maker!

  13. This is a very homey and summer mosaic of photos. Very M.E. also. :) Do you read her magazine?

    It is hot here in Holland once again today but the temperatures are set to drop again. That is good as I don't enjoy this humidity. We don't have air conditioning and half of our roof is a flat roof that retains the heat. Hope you find ways to stay cool.

  14. Hi Rhondi,
    Love the checks too, my favorite here in my house, is my dog cabinet, which I have been accused of being a "doggie shrine"! Love your checked cup and saucer!

    Hope your enjoying your day today, bless you!

  23. I love the collage you created with all your checks. Very neat! I forgot you live in NC. Don't know if I've ever told you my oldest son lives in the Chapel Hill area.
