Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!
Blogging has always been a stress reliever for me along with an avenue to share my passions which are my home and my garden.....
I
feel it is a personal Journal that, hopefully, someday, my Twin
Granddaughters will be able to look back on to learn about who I
was....
I will be posting 3 times a week on MONDAYS, THURSDAYS and SATURDAYS....
As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....

A NOTE ABOUT COMMENTS
I
enjoy reading your comments and will return the favor by visiting and
commenting on your blog or reply to you directly here if you do not have
a blog but I do have my comment section set to Moderation due to
spammers and hackers so your comment will not appear immediately...
And since I have a very busy life, like most of us do, it may take me awhile to return your comments but I promise I will....

And now for a few Personal Notes...
Our heat wave, which is 3 days above 90 degrees for NEPA, is OVER!!!!
It is nice and cool today so I hope to get a bit of yard work done...
I would like it in the high 70's compared to those 85 degree temps. though...
The Killer here in NEPA is the humidity and dew points which have been in the tropical range....
I do not do well physically in this humidity and pretty much did not go out of the house unless I had to for the past few days...
I pray this was the last heat wave of the Summer but I doubt that....
Today, I am going to finish up my tour of the Dining Room that I decorated as a Tea Room for the Summer.....
I left off here in this corner with my Tea Table.....

Working my way around what I call my most Victorian looking room in my 1970's built townhouse.....

The wall that is behind the Dining Room table.....

On the left side of the large Home Interiors picture called "May I Play?"

Everything here , except for the Home Interiors pair of mirrored sconces, was thrifted....
I bought the pretty plates at a church flea market and the vintage Lefton cherub plaques ( 4 of them) at a yard sale.....

A large swag I made along with a big bow, a chord and a fringed lace scarf top off the top of the picture.....
Vintage tea cups and saucers on a Home Interiors shelf....
Same on the right side of the picture.....
My late husband Joe gifted me this picture frame many years ago......

Pictures of ancestors and "Instant Relatives" ( bought at flea markets) are displayed in the 3 frames....
On a shelf is a Home Interiors Victorian Lady figurine....
The white and gold cardinal was gifted to me by my late friend Anne Marie....


In the corner by the Kitchen.....

I decorate this vintage Funeral Basket, gifted to me by my friend Anne Marie, for the different Seasons and Holidays....
Pink flowers for Spring and Summer grace it now.....

Below it on the marble topped stand......
Another one of my books on Tea, tea pot ornaments and a vintage tea cup and saucer.....
There are lighted branches in the floral arrangement......

The Curio belonged to my late neighbor Elly....
On top of the Curio.....
All thrifted items.....



Inside the Curio.....


To the right of the Curio....

A rose floral swag.....

This heart pillow was gifted to me by a friend.....

I hung this stained glass window panel in the pass through from the Kitchen to the Dining Room, creating a window in a windowless Dining Room.....
It reminds me of the stained glass windows in Victorian homes....
There is a lamp on the counter bar on the other side in the Kitchen that makes it look like this.....


On top of the cabinet that my Dad made to match the Dining Room set that we inherited from Joe's maternal grandmother, Rose....

The cherub candle holders were bought in Salvation Army.....
A vintage trinket box....

Another Thomas Kinkade Pink Lady, titled "Style Spun from Grace"
From the Laced with Hope Collection....

I decided to decorate this Victorian style feather Tree with mini tea cups and tea pots.....
On the other side....
