Home Is Where The Heart Is....





Thank you so much for all your lovely comments regarding my return to Acting, I am lucky enough to have a really good Amateur Dramatic Society here so am looking forward to maybe treading those boards :)



I am so excited to have been invited by Little Gems World to share the hearts I have around my Home. Now many of you shall know that we are having our Home Sweet Home refurbished and it is taking longer than we thought so many of my pretty hearts are not hanging from pretty hooks or shelves but are tucked away in the depths of tissue and bubble wrap waiting to be unleashed on my home.



Reason I love my hearts so much. When Master Poppins was only a few months old and was having a routine examination, they discovered he had a Heart Condition, Pulmonary Stenosis and he had a cardiac catheterization. He is very well and happy and we give much thanks to his cardiologist who treated him and he is so happy with Master Poppins he doesn't need to see him for three years. So my love of hearts has great meaning for me as my son has a very special one :)



So it was with great joy that I began my search of my pretty Hearts, I am sure there shall be some you recognise too.







Gorgeous SC Cafe Swap, handmade hearts from Little Gems World.







A gorgeous handmade Angel Heart and sparkly heart from MelMel.







SC Cafe Swap, beautiful Keep Calm And Carry On Heart from Second Wind.







Hearts I have purchased very reasonably from fellow Bloggers, the pretty handmade button one is from Raspberry Grace. and the gorgeous Crochet one is from Serendipity Loves NewYork











A pretty cream rack for my Hearts.







Hearts in my home.



















Two very special ones.







More Hearts.



















Big Sister and Little Man have a love of Hearts too. Pretty Hearts with true words, click on the photograph if you want to see what they say, shinny Heart mirrors for Big Sister and Ikea lights for Little Man.























I love pretty postcards, special thoughts and words, special handmade cards and little trinkets to have on my lovely cream Wire Heart.











So thank you for accompanying me on my Heart journey, I so look forward to having them all in their special places, and I cordially invite you to share any of your great loves.



Thank you so much too to all of you who have handmade some gorgeous Hearts for me for Swaps etc, they mean the world to me, as when I look them I am reminded how very lucky and grateful we are to have such a special little man in our lives and it brings a smile to my face.



Talking of Hearts I need to be cracking on with my CK Esque swap for Lace Hearts :)

    I was told a long time ago that to have hearts in your home draws love into it....just a little tale but I love it..and I think your hearts have found a fab home, they are gorgeous.
    Hugs for hearts

    I loved this post (and Little Gem's) and feel it might be a subject that's catching!! As Lesley syays, it would be a good "tag".

    Look forward to hearing how the Amateur Dramatics go ...

    Well done Mary xxxxxxxxx
