BOHO Look/Crochet Throw
When it comes to fashion I am all
about being
COMFY!
Never been a need to have
this brand sort of
person.
With my fibro I can't stand having
close that binding on me.
Well, let me retell that statement.
On my legs having leggings that are
tight yet give with stretch feels
good, sort like I guess a weighted
blanket would feel.
However on the upper part of my
body, I can't be restricted. I have
to have loose. A lot of my fibro pain
in in the chest, upper back, mid back and
shoulders are the worst.
With all that said, in the winter
I want soft, warm, comfy stuff on.
And in the summer a lot of days
I replace those loose fitting
stretch jean shorts I opt for
summer flowing dresses or skirts.
Now in the past you have learned
(if you were paying attention)
that I LOVE lace, and bling.
More the lace then the bling...
but I like ruffles also, and the
layered look.
I LOVE the BOHO
look.
While scrolling the internet the
other day on the outlook for a
BOHO type cute, dress for my
niece Holly's wedding I tagged a lot
of what I love.
Here are a few.
See...since losing weight two yrs
ago. Yep, missed blogging about that
anniversary on the 21st ~
But since losing, I can wear stuff
like this and look good, at least
so long as I keep my boney, ugly
legs covered.
Now, I love the below look also
but it also reminds me of
a tableclothe!
I just adore that look.
Was scrolling PINTEREST
and saw this painting.
I have never painted like this
before and thinking I might have
to give it a try.
Pretty cool I think.
Using lots of paint.
Okay, here is your pick a pic choice
today.
Me....#2.
Have been wanting one of these in
my backyard for a while. Basically for
going in and chilling and crafting.
Now...with five critters I don't think it would
be doable unless I lock them in the house
and go
HIDE!
I found this several weeks ago.
This is a project that my mom started
but did not finish. That in itself is strange
cause my mom did not start much
that went undone. That is more my style.
It has all be encased in a plastic bedspread
holder along with a couple of other
things of yarn.
Here is a pic of what it should look
like if you did the colors that the
directions called for.
It is called a tier drop pattern.
I did one like this over 30 yrs ago
for my mom in law. Not sure if all the
yard I need is here but I plan on working
on this to finish up as much as the yarn
will allow me for my mom who gave
up crocheting years ago.
Yep, that is part of Dakota and Cheyenne
photo bombing my pic.
Specking on pics.....something
I have not been doing a lot of lately,
however I took these with my phone
last night after feeding at the barn.
I love a good pretty colorful sunset!
The second pic was taken over looking
the property of the original home
of the 7th President of the US.,
Andrew Jackson.
The shot from yesterday was taken
years ago on the other side of the
road which is still property of the
Hermitage.
This property lays between mine and my
moms home. So it is a daily site as
I drive by.....however hitting it just right
when I was going to work and getting the
sun coming up on one side and setting
on the other side later in the day is
a must for a camera crazy person!
ME!
Here is hoping that you have a great
day!
JUMP over and check
out the babes.

Those skirts are soooooooo gorgeous!!!!!!! But I could never wear them now. I'm only 5'2 1/2" and way too round, so could not pull them off, like I could, in days-past.
But I do remember 'Prairie style,' back when my daughter was in college, and I was tiny. :-))))) Loved that style!!!!!! And we could share clothes.
Memories!
Wow, that's some painting! Must have to use thick paint, to make petals look real!!!!
If I had some kind of a building in the back yard, I'd want the last one. I don't doooooo stuff, like you do. So it would just be something pretty to look at, and sit in. :-)
Gorgeous, gorgeous photos! Have to catch them quickly because the light changes so fast...

ps....the picture of the back yard was taken in the Fall - that's why it's so green. We are still having lots of rain, and it's raining today!
My great-grandmother (the one who taught me to knit) left behind an unfinished sweater when she passed. I have no idea who she was knitting it for, and she wasn't much for clear patterns. (She used them, but the notes she kept as she was working was not a method she ever taught me. And I was a newbie knitter when she passed.)
It took me years (probably 20) before I could unravel it.
I love that painting. Wow.
Have a fabulous day, my friend. More healing scritches to Dakota. ♥
Keep well and take care Diane
Of the 4 pics I like either 1 or 4.
I like the look of number four shed …
All the best Jan
Love that you are going to finish up one of your mom's projects. That should make it extra special when you are done with it all.
Have a good night, Pam. xo Diana
