This past weekend we had a "very difficult for me" yard sale....Let me just say I'm a borderline hoarder, one may say...I hold emotional attachement to a lot of my "junk". There was quite a few things that I kept holding on to that where my kids. An old Victorian Doll House that I thought "one of these days" I'm going to do minitures and decorate tiny, mini rooms. Like I have time for a new hobby NOT! Then the small kitchen that my girls used to play house when they were about 4 years old. The adorable mini Target frig complete with wooden fruit, plasitc food and dishes and china for the wee set. The country farm table and chairs that goes to the kitchen for pretend tea parties or rolling out dough. "One of these days" I would be back teaching Kindergarten and I would need all of thisso I hung on to it. Dining room chairs, old lamps and some Christmas decor all went out early Sat morning....In the end if felt so good to purge out the garage and get it all organized and clean! Now I have lots of room to tackle the projects that I want to tackle in this little cottage of ours.

Hi! I get sentimental over my kids "things" too and it gets hard to sell them! About the Petunias, I can't say I've had a problem with mine smelling strongly but I would say that I don't think Petunias have a very nice scent! LOL Thanks for your sweet comment! I enjoyed checking out your blog!
