Blogmas day 14…little gnome shopping.

Last week I went shopping for Christmas decor. Not a lot though. I have my typical traditions of those colorful wooden ornaments I enjoy finding and buying, at the right price of course, and I sometimes will pick up a cute little gnome if I find one. Before we moved we donated a lot of…

Blogmas day 11…Shopping for Christmas ornaments.

I’m always on the hunt for Christmas ornaments to add to my gift wrapped packages or bags. They always look so pretty added to a gift box. Tie a candy cane to them too. Here are a few I came across. Copyright Our Little Red house 2025

Blogmas day 9….A visit to Candyland.

It sure felt like Candyland. We went to a candy store this weekend to search for items to use for our gingerbread houses. We found the coolest candy store I have ever been to. It reminds me of a store I used to go to called Yummers, which had all kinds of old fashioned types…

Blogmas day 6…a visit to the antique store.

This Christmas we are taking small breaks to get out in the community and support local and just interact with others face to face. I have shared my favorite antique store with you all before and now that it’s Christmas season I thought I share with you some photos I took of what’s new in…

Happy December everyone.

Well, it’s here, our favorite month, at least for me that is. Maybe my husband and children like another month better, but I love December and April the most. They have always been my favorite months. I would have my greatest gifts of all that were given to me…my children. My daughter was born in…

My Pickin haul.

It wasn’t a lot, thank goodness for that. I already have enough stuff that I need to organize from our move. I’m getting there though, everything is finally finding a place. I’m especially happy to have a place to store my arts and craft supplies. I had a list in my head of items I…

What’s trending for Fall decor.

I don’t really follow the trends, but I do like to see what is trending. Right now in Fall decor they are saying that Grandma decor is trending, but I believe that has been trending for awhile. They called it cottage core for awhile there…is cottage core still a thing? You know, I think what…

Shopping adventures…a visit to an antique store.

This store was packed. Sometimes I feel a little claustrophobic when stores are jammed packed with items but this one was just so fun seeing inside of it, like a museum. I went in to look for some vintage lace for a children’s craft class that is coming up. They have a sewing section in…

A weekend of yard sales and outdoor markets.

This weekend it was officially Fall and that could only mean one thing…bargain shopping outdoor style. I love shopping at outdoor markets. It was cloudy with mostly sunshine. The perfect temps with a nice cool breeze every now and then. We didn’t have time to stop at every table or every sale. There were so…

Taking care of business…a summer of all work and no play.

” Be Bold. Be Courageous. Never be afraid to speak up and speak out.” John Lewis Well summers over, just flew the coop? It was a busy and beautiful summer, went by too fast and now there is chatter in the air that this Winter will be a cold one. We still need to get…
