Love the header sister! Your blog is so inspiring to me. I am so happy we are doing this together. Your my best friend..I am so grateful for our relationship! love you sis..~lulu
Donna, I thank you for becoming a follower on Karen's Threads of Hope today. I am always excited to " meet " new friends there.. Please feel free to stop by , and leave comments on posts if you feel led to do that. I love reading those, just as much as knowing new friends feel comfortable in stopping by..Love the photo's you have shared here.. I love to tinker with redoing my home, but it means, just moving furniture, or making new pillow coverings - at least for now, thats what I can do financially.. But creativity begins in the heart, and thats where I know my joy begins when thinking about change... Thanks again, for stopping by. I look forward to going thru your blog more!! Hanging onto the Thread of Hope, karen
Hi Donetella, how nice that you found my little blog and gave me such a nice compliment on it. It is such a pleasure for me to "meet" new people through my blog. I was very interested in your profile and to learn that you were born in Italy but have lived almost your entire life in the states. My grandmother was born here in Germany but moved to the United States when she was 2. So when I came here to Germany to live, I felt as if I was coming back for her!! Lucky you to live in CA and to be able to visit such a delightful antiques mart! I wish so much that they had something like that here, but alas, none. :-( I am a new follower of yours and will definitely be back soon to see what else you have posted to share with one and all. warmly, Debby
Hi Donatella, thank you so much for following me. I just love your blog and I'll be following you too. Such nice inspirations here. Just loved it! XoXo, Li
sounds interesting. I live in the OC and I haven't been that way since the old "Renaissance" Fair back in the day. Perhaps I'll take a day trip. Count me in as a follower and come and visit me and say hello.
Donna, You are so awesome. It was wonderful to meet you as well and I look forward to spending more time getting to know you. Thank you for all the compliments and for helping Lu with my booth the other day. Love your blog!!! xoxo janette
Hi my name is Donatella, but my friends just call me Donna. I was born in Naples, Italy. My mom brought me here at the age of four, and I have lived in Southern California ever since. I met and married the perfect man. Married 15 years with one daughter, Jessie-lou. We love God, our country, life together and our home.
A one time hair-dresser, and former business owner turned antique & vintage buyer/ seller; hard-work is in the blood!
There's something special about the beauty of natural, simple living that's heartwarming and conmforting, and is often missed in our busy, modern lives. Old-fashioned style and country flair remind me of times that are peacful and easy; genuine. There's something so wonderful- about things that have generations of unique history.
