Making A Little Progress....



Well...I'm still working on this room....I had to take a break from getting tax stuff ready and everything else that we've been busy about doing...
Have the stenciling to finish and the window treatments...started on them a few nights ago and my machine would not work.... :( grrrrrr!

Thank you for looking!
So,what's your opinion so far?

Have a nice weekend!

Callin' All Prayer Warriors!

Hey Prim Friends!
I know many of you that read my blogs have a strong Faith in God and that is why I am asking for your prayers!
My family and I are fine....Praise Jesus!
We just have a need for a prayer to be answered that would certainly make things better for us!
I thank God for how He has continued to "open doors" for Mr. Backwoods,myself & our family....when other "doors" have closed....
No regrets that some have closed....we're just pressing on!
Would you please join me in prayer that this prayer on our hearts will to come to pass soon!
Alot of things would be for the better if that one thing would happen!
I give God all the praise and glory, but thank each of you in advance for praying with me about this....never thought I'd be bloggin' for prayers....but hey...can you ever have too many friends or too many prayers??!!

Also,I'd like to express to each of you to have a most blessed and joyous Easter....beginning with the thoughts of what today should reflect in our hearts for what Christ has done for us!
Please God, forgive me for all the areas of my life that I fall so short...and thank You Lord for loving me in spite of myself!

Sincerely,
Backwoodsprim

Just Droppin' In And A Few Decorating Pics Too!


Hi Prim pals! Just droppin' in for a bit!
We have been soooo extremely busy!
Our cooking/concession season official began today!
Blessed with a beautiful sunny 83 degree day and many folks hungry for something fresh off the grill!

Earlier this week we had a sweet customer to come to our shop
and purchase her first prim piece of furniture! Wahoo!
It has the neatest looking prim finish!
Glad our customer really liked it!
She was so excited to be getting her first "prim" piece!
We are so grateful she came to us!

I've been trying to do a bit of Spring cleaning and re-arranging....I say...Trrrryyyiiinnggg! heh heh....
Did manage to clean and mop the tongue and grooved pine floor in our kitchen....whew!...let's just say it was loooooong overdue...also,vacuumed and shampooed the braided jute rug under our table and the other three in the kitchen...
Oh,they look so much better!
Tough,tough rugs!
I've had them for nearly 4-5 years now and they have held up so well!

Movin' on...brought in a red-checkered sofa and that in turn caused us to have to move the entire room around! LOL! Anyone else ever do that?
So,we moved the Lazy Boy recliner out.... :) Do you see me smiling???
But,I have to admit I felt kind of bad about it because it's DH's chair...he's not supposed to sit in recliner's because of what they do to his back...so I actually did him a favor...right? ;)
Anyhow back to the re-arranging...took a long black peg shelf down from over the mustard sectional and put the black screen-door cabinet(that Mr. Backwoods' made)in it's place....well sort of...I actually had the crazy idea to hit me...to put the shelf up under the wall cabinet as one piece!! It actually looks pretty doggone cool!!!
I don't have it fully decorated like I want it to look, but I'm gettin' there!
Just thought I'd post a few progress pics...oh, for those of you that have been wondering...nope, I have dropped the ball on the bedroom stenciling and have not finished it yet...I WILL however get it done soon!!! Yes! I will!!!



Just to jump in here between photos....the corner has bugged the absolute poo outa me for a loooong time...could not get that corner to look right to suit me!!
Then we had the idea to move the beloved pie safe in that corner! Then, Voila!
It all came together! I'm so thankful to have been blessed with that pie safe....
My uncle(my dad's identical twin)passed away in October and about a month later some things were being gone through, when my kind cousin gifted it to me! I am so incredibly thankful to him for what he did!

Still have several things I'm working on in here....but I can honestly say...
I am grateful for my home and I LOVE how my Living Room looks now!
I have often wondered why when we get together with our friends(that have bigger houses)nearly always end up getting together out our's???
Then,I had a couple of customers to tell me it's because it is very "warm","welcoming" and "inviting" in here....
That sure made me feel nice!
It's just "HOME" to us....and for that....we feel so blessed!
Hope you liked!
