February's Tag Sale Delights!

Me (Robin) finding time to relax during the
Feb. Tag Sale rush!
French Paper and Pearl Birthday Crown!

Wonderful paper goods from The Robin's Nest!
As the dust, or should I say snow, starts to settle on the Chartreuse and co February tag sale and had a chance to look through the many pictures and post a few that either excited me or made me giggle! Of course I am speaking of the first picture of myself, a.k.a. the "cheesecake" photo! Donna, one of the fabulous vendors at Chartreuse was kind enough to take a few pics of me "draped across" a stunning cream upholstered chaise. Hey, what can I say? I LOVE my new paper crowns, fairy wands and of course the amazing cupcake toppers! Just had to contain myself and not lick the icing off of the Starbucks cupcakes I used as display. After all, who can resist a double "mocha chocolatino latte extravaganza" cupcake....wasn't that the flavor? yuuuummmmmy!

This month's sale did not disappoint those who braved the elements, cold/wind/snow/slush/mud (need I say more?) and traveled to Buckeystown, MD to spend a few hours with the Chartreuse and co gang! There definitely was a lot of color and a bit of spring in the air. Everywhere you looked color delighted your eyes. It's time to think gardens, flowers and outdoors. Not to mention the fabulous lighting available to brighten the rooms still dark waiting for the longer days of spring and summer. All girls are waking up from our winter hibernation and our brains are exploding with new vintage goodies to help you usher in the warmth of the new season.

Side note.....Lately, I've been playing with the program Photoshop. After a few painful tutoring sessions with my 22 yr. son, I think I've got the hang of adding backgrounds and frames to my pictures. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this post's photos. I'm tryin' to zip things up a bit. We'll see how it goes....
