The weather has turned magic and people are outside and beginning the process of cleaning out the clutter from their homes. Many turn to the Salvation Army with donations. Soup kitchens are showing up with more donations, too. A small room in the back overflows with all matter of things… rugs, lamps, as well as soaps and shampoo and other misc items. And they are all $1 or less to give the needy a chance to spruce up their “home”.
Many homeless eventually get back on their feet and end up getting a home. During the transition period and after many will come to the soup kitchen to eat and look around in the back for things they might need and use in their new quarters.
It’s all working out when we give to a variety of places with our junk that turn into treasures for others… give and receive the join in the gift to others.
A friend of ours lost her dog and then the cat six short months later. The doggie lived a nice long life, but the kitty was only six years old. We think she died of a broken heart when the cute little doggie passed away. Sad.
Her daughter had mentioned that she missed her pets when she would come home from college to visit. So with a 21st birthday coming up this week, her mom decided to shift through some pics of the dog and cat together and came up with an adorable photo where the cat is grooming the dog on the bed. She had the picture woven into a memory blanket (photo blanket) and gave it to her daughter for her birthday. She told me her daughter cried when she opened her gift. She could not stop talking about it the rest of the evening and told her mom how much she loved it. It was a hit!
Decor4u offers these photo blankets, which can be delivered to your home in 1 week. Fast and easy if your looking for a special photo gift for your family or friends.

We have been getting a lot of chairs lately… lots. All folding chairs and it’s worked out well as we’ve replaced our older ones with the better and newer ones and simply given the old away to those in need. It was from on old hall that had to close it’s doors to make way for a new string of shops. So we lucked out and got the chairs… we’re not sure who got the tables. Lots of tables.
We also have been getting a few lamps and then more artwork to hang on the wall in various forms. Some were paint by number, acrylic and the velvet painted on pictures. And they are loved and go like hot cakes for cheap. And we continue to get this nice wall hangings. Somebody out there likes us and is always giving us a helping hand.

It’s a pretty cool personalized photo gift as in a photo tapestry.
This is a beautiful tapestry wall hanging that shows the Medieval Times when the knights carried the protective shields with their very own coat of arms signature. The deer in this Medieval Tapestry, Deer & Shields keep a watchful eye out while our Knights of the Round Table slumber through the night.
This motif is taken from The Quest of The Holy Grail and is one of many, many tapestry wall hangings woven to depict the events of those fun and fanciful Medieval days.
The period from approximately 1500 to 1750 is considered the golden age of European tapestry production. During the Middle Ages, it was typical for weavers to use artistic license and interpret freely when creating tapestries from working sketches. By 16th century, however, tapestry production was a highly regulated, rigidly controlled industry. The working designs, or “cartoons”, were paintings, often by masters, and were strictly copied by the weavers. Ten tapestries created from cartoons by Rafael, known as the Acts of the Apostles, hang in the Sistine Chapel to this day. Medieval Tapestries were practically like a newspaper.. telling all the tales and events of importance in the weaving of the fabrics. The exquisite detail and color of these hangings equaled any paintings of the time.

Education is something we all cannot get enough of in our opinion, so we like to promote such high quality and educational works-of-art to small children, teens, and young adults, as much as possible. We can do this in many ways, of course, but one we found to be great fun is the Bayeux Tapestries woven into 77 different events for the fun and eventful wall hangings to be talked about with our youth.
Not that many kids know these stories, which is part of history and the shaping of events of long ago. It’s such a beautiful artwork and so nice that the original Bayeux tapestry (which, by the way is 230 feet long!) has been reproduced into all these smaller more manageable wall hangings is a treat. If they hang from the walls in their play room, bedroom or family room or den, the kids begin to wonder about what’s in the picture. What’s that all about? .. and right there you’ve got them captivated for the telling of these stories of William the Conqueror and England and how it all came to be, when William was crowned King.
You can find Bayeux Tapestries and other treasures at Decor4u.com and see what an enjoyment you might find for your children’s education and entertainment, at the same time. Enjoy.
With Wall Street free falling into the abyss and all, it’s a tough row to hoe when it comes to knowing what to do. That’s why I wrote the title the way I did. What the world needs now is love, sweet love.. like the song.
Our global warming issues are worrisome. Being Eco friendly can be a challenge. Knowing what to do with all your cash when stocks are so terrible at the moment is a problem. And when there are so many stressful issues at hand, I say don’t forget to smell the roses along the way, especially when things get to be so negative. By doing this you can find the goodness that remains intact in life.. and there is plenty of that left to go around.
Share the wealth of this goodness, too by smiling more. Greeting your neighbor with a hardy, “Hello”. When driving around, make it a pleasant excursion. The list is endless. Little things can and do help. These are the good distractions.
What the world needs now is love, sweet love. Today I’m buying a beautiful area rug for my living room, so I can lay down with my book and enjoy the day with my sweet little dog by my side. This is a treat for us. What will your treat be today?

Tapestries woven in France using the finest masterpieces painted by the great artists is a nice textile art form to show off some beautiful works-of-art. The Metropolitan Museum of Art show cases many of these paintings in grand style. If you have never had the chance to go to New York City and step into The Met in Central Park, you can go to their internet website and take a look. It’s out of site and worth that trip on the web.
What’s so very cool is these masterpieces are taken to the loom and woven into the same art work, only using a different medium of fabrics. Cotton, wool, silk, rayon, viscose and acrylic fibers are used. Chenilles are made from these fibers, which make up some of the soft, thick and plush wall decor that can also take on double duty as a throw. Two in one with Chenilles.
Even if tapestries are not your ‘thing’, the marvelous works of art in their own right are certainly something to see. Take a gander over at The Met Museum and enjoy some of it’s treasures. It’s the humane thing to do. We say that with a smile.

Over the holiday weekend we are going to be playing a ton of golf and the event at the course is a Medieval Theme. Wow… we are all wondering what the weather will bring, since our outfits might just be a bit warm for the day… there is also the consideration of being able to move well to swing the club.
One of the men suggested the ladies all come as Lady Godiva’s… all of them. We all thought that was very funny and fun, but not a chance, since she needs a horse, but not much else.
Instead a friend of ours has a beautiful and large Medieval tapestry of Lady Godiva to bring to the event and hang from the club house. Quite a statement it will make.
