Tick Tick Ticking!!


Crazy - I just bought 10 yards of Waverly Timless Ticking in Sage Green 100% Cotton off Ebay.  I love sage green, love ticking.... I'm thinking shower curtain?
oh and cushion covers, bed skirt, maybe even a mattress cover!  Anyone else have any ideas for ticking?

Virgin blogger

I have discovered I'm hooked on blogs, especially home and decorating blogs.  How did this happen? Is it a new disease?  If so I'm having a great time.  Seems it started with Chickens in the Road and then I graduated to Canadian Cottage, seems one leads to another (you should see my favorites!).

The logical outcome is of course to start blogging myself, join the adventure and the ongoing conversations around me.  I'm hoping this will be a medium to document my lifes challenges and accomplishments.  My husband and I raise dogs, big dogs but we're a small time operation.  I'm in the Canadian military, mother of a grown son also in the military and most recently the proud owner of a century farmhouse (my dreamhouse) in eastern Ontario.  I'll be posting photos etc of our move to this house and my attempts to make it my ultimate dream home - hopefully with some assistance from you all out there!

Let the adventure begin!!
