September Kitchen Window

September...a lovely month. My kitchen window this month is full of so many of my favorite things.

Shooner redware,  old bittersweet vine, feathers, a couple of early tin cookie cutters...and a string of tiny amber rice lights to add just a little twinkle.

Polka dotted Shooner salt with a tin lid...I love anything with dots. 

When your front yard is home to two very old, very large live oaks, acorns are part of the landscape...inside and out. This early tin cookie cutter is a good five inches high.

An early tin squirrel cookie cutter and lots of polka dots.

A window to welcome the change of seasons...

Thank you for the well wishes on my last post. Frozen shoulder can last up to thirty months, but I'm trying to stay positive. I'm doing my exercises and keeping heat on it. Putting all my effort into getting this over with as soon as possible. It's wicked.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend...stay safe...make some memories.

Enjoy the day,

Robyn

Frozen here.

The girls and I wanted to let you know we are still around, but have not been able to do much blogging lately. 

Diagnosis...frozen shoulder. It is very stiff and very painful. 

I need to really slow things down. So...easy on the computer for now. I'll be visiting, but not always saying hello by way of comment. 

I'll be back with my September window. 

It's on the way...lovely autumn.

Have a great week!

Enjoy the day,

Robyn

The winner...

 So many great choices...thank you to all who took the time to "name drop"!!! What great names!!!

I have to admit, as soon as I saw Karmel Katkeeper, I knew it was a perfect fit. Karmel is fussy about her shoes matching her purse, but she is a straight arrow, and her name is as succinct and to the point as she is. She is the color of "caramels"...and she keeps cats.

Penny...if you contact me with your address I'll mail you your little box of kitties this weekend. Thank you!

And thank you to all who joined in...and welcome to my new followers, too.

Have a great weekend!

Enjoy the evening,

Robyn

Name Game Give-Away

This lady came to life today. My dolls are in my head...itching to get out. I am always happy when they resemble the doll I see in my mind's eye.

I usually love coming up with names for my Mugwump Woolies...something that suits their personality. Today, I am drawing a blank. I'm hoping you all might help give this sweet gal a name.

She's a tall one...thirty six inches. She's wearing an antique baby shirt...dyed black...that compliments her wool skirt. 

She's crazy for cats...especially black...and totes them about in her leather purse.

She's "old school"...her shoes match her purse.

Her stockings (legs) are made from the lining of an antique choir robe...her pumpkin noggin is made from the outside of the velvet robe. The robe, in it's advanced age, has become mottled...it's color softened to a beautiful caramel.

A string of vintage buttons circles her neck...the colors the very same that appear in her skirt. Her nose is an old coverlet piece and her eyes are antique shoe buttons. 

Hopefully, all this info will help someone out there help me christen this gal.

If I pick your contribution, or am influenced by your suggestion, these little black cats will come your way...with a few surprises thrown in, as well. Perhaps a green witch?  I'll announce the winning name next Friday, August 15th. 

Rules? You must be a follower and leave a comment on this post, with a name you think might agree with this girl. Lower 48 states. 

This dolly will be going to my friend's wonderful antique store in Dade City for the fall open house on September 16.

Put your thinking caps on!

Enjoy the day,

Robyn
