The Scented Cottage®Studio

we're singin' it in the rain but that is fine with me. Finally we are back in the high 60's and 70's right where we belong AND where I can finally work on a few things I've had sittin' for a bit. Cold and I just do not agree and the best I can do is sit by the fire and re…

I love the South for so many reasons but one of the main reasons is because it is warm...even during the winter while those of you "up Nawth" and in the Midwest are freezin' we get by with a sweater. Those days are over, at least for now. I guess we should be grateful for Global Warm…

We had some wild kittens that would visit our back deck several months back. Ya'll know that Wailin' chose us as her family while a couple of the other wild kittens would not come near us. Soon there was only one other that would come onto our back deck to get some sun and relax but still r…

Wishing you peace, comfort and joy this Christmas. My wish for you: May your homes and hearts be warmed and your hopes be high by the promises given to us by Christ.

Remember, without the service and dedication of our armed forces our lives could be very different. From the …

Okay, so technically it's Sunday but we have been having a bit of trouble connecting lately. Our cable company has "upgraded" it's system, added faster mbps and new things you can order...oh and they "upgraded" the cost. What they didn't do was upgrade the equipmen…

It's Monday again and once again I am caught by total surprise ! How could that be ??? Well I admit I was working on some packaging this weekend and at the computer a lot. I seem to forget what time it is, forget to eat etc. and the next thing I know a whole weekend has slipped by. Does tha…

this Amish saying sums it up for me quite well...this is such a busy time of year for all of us, especially those of us with retail shops. Time for boxing, wrapping, packing and mailing ... we always try to add a special touch to each box whether you are giving it as a gift to someone or to yourse…
