THIS little metal, vintage kitchen stool was in such bad shape when I found it in a thrift shop about 10 years ago...
I sanded, primed and painted it BLACK....
*
*
then, while looking through a decorating magazine one day,
I saw one in an adorable kitchen, just like MY stool except that it had
her husband's race car NUMBER painted on it....so cute...
OK...MR. SWEET NOTHINGS had a high school football NUMBER...
hmmmm...so he kindly (and PROUDLY, I might add) painted
HIS number on my stool...making it much more personal...
and I do love it. It sets close to my pantry and comes in handy
for reaching that highest shelf....!!
YAY...GO, NUMBER 57 !!!!

XO bj
p.s. CAN anyone tell me why my blog background dress takes so long to come up?
AND, how can I fix it ? Too many photos ? Do I need to create another blog
and put all my archives on it? Would that help the slowness of downloading
my main page of my original blog?
*confused state of mind, here!!
:O(
OOOOOOO, and HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY TO
BO over at BLINKS AND WINKS FROM BROWN EYES..
and many, MANY more!!

Hi Dear BJness! Oh, I love that little stool and Mr. SweetNothing's football # even makes it cuter!!
I love all of your beautiful pillows. I've been coveting for some time that adorable rabbit pillow.
I don't know what would make your blog dress load so slowly! :(
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
BJ, I was just coming to find you!! Seems like you've been quiet lately. Now you have some gorgeous pillows!! Nothing average there like you said last week!! You always do the cutest posts with the movies and the hunks.
That little stool is so cute. I disagree about you not having any fancy pillows. You have some beautiful pillows, and I have loved that bunny pillow since I first saw it on their blog. I often listen to Celtic Woman. Love that music. laurie
Hello, Happy Blue Monday! Thank you so much for stopping by! How pretty!
Bless you, Shirl
Shirls Rose Cottage

Allison

GM BJ, You have a great post today. And I love your blog dress, I want to chang mine, but then my stuff won't fit right on it, so I give up. I love your pillows too, they look pretty fancy to me. And how cute is that stool, I love how you find so many things and make them so pretty.
Today Norm is getting some surgery done on his hand, so i'll be gone most of the day. I just can't seem to get caught up with my visits. :)
You have a wondeful day.
Love Ya,
Chris
How pretty your blog looks, BJ! And I love the little stool, and Mr. SN's number on it makes it even more special.
Your pillows are so pretty and perfect for your beautiful cottage.
Oh, I almost forgot! I love the movie Pillow Talk, too! They don't make them like that anymore, do they!
Happy St. Patrick's Day, dear BJ. I love your #57 stool, and how perfect.
Your pillows are so pretty and fun. Red and yellow does make such a great combination.
I think your home has some beautiful things! I love your black stool and your pillows are gorgeous! Haven't seen you around much lately though, hope things are well with you and your family!
Well hello to the rockin-est grandmother that I have ever seen! What a delight you are, BJ! I hope to be a grandma someday too, and honey you have set the bar pretty high. I can't wait to have the time to read it all. Thank you for sharing your happiness with us! Cheers, Andrea
BJ, you are the SWEETEST bloggy friend...thanks for the shout out on our 40th...I love seeing pictures of your home...your pillows are wonderful & look pretty darn fancy to me! I didn't notice your blog taking too long to download...but, anyhow...even if it does...it's worth waiting for! Luv ya, ;-) Bo
Top o’ the mornin’ to ya! Thank you for the music.
I love the story of Mr. SN's chair and #57.
Your pillows are much nicer than mine. Mine are so plain that they won't let me snap a picture!
Hi, BJ! I love all of your pillows (I think you knew I would!), and I love that cute metal stool with your husband's football letter. Very clever and fun! I can remember a stool similar to that one in my aunt's kitchen. :-)
I forgot to put up my favorite Irishman for you, but I did on my sidebar. He's my favorite soap star man of all time! Don't know if you've ever watched soaps, but he was on three of them! Come take a look!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
XO,
Sheila :-)
Bj- You are the greatest!! So many fabulous pillows- love all the fabrics and trims...and our little bunny pillow making an appearance too!! You always have the best posts!
blessings,
kari & kijsa
What a great idea for your kitchen stool. I love it.
I love all of your beautiful pillows.
Oooh I love that movie, BJ! It's been eons since I have seen it...LOL! The stool came out really pretty and so handy. Love all your pillows especially the bunny one. How cute is that!...Christine
Yummy!
You are making me want to eat some cherry pie!
~Beautiful pillows.
I adore the toile. :)
Totally in love with the rabbit pillow!!!
Smile...with the love of Mr. Sweet Nothings ol' football number on your stool...the love we feel you share of him ...it is not a wonder there is all that "Pillow talk" wink ,wink...going on! Join me today if you have time from fluffing all those lovely pillows to have a cup of irish coffee!
Mornin' BJ...
Was so happy to find your note at my place this morning...thank you, my friend! Ohhhh...I see that you have one of the sister's bunny pillows, how very sweet of your friend to get that for you!!!
I just love all of your pillows, but must admit that the black & white toile pillows mixed in with that pretty red pillow were my favorites!!!
You did a fabulous job refurbishing that vintage metal stool and the fact that your honey painted his football number on it...just precious!!!
Well my friend, I'm not exactly sure why your page loads slowly but I this might be one reason...the more you limit the number of daily posts per page...the faster it loads! Simply because it doesn't have to load as many photos, etc. You can change this by going first to "customize"...then to the Settings tab...and next to formatting...at the top of this page it asks how many posts you want to show! If you limit your posts to 3,4,or 5...your page will download faster. Just a suggestion, it's the only thing I can think of....hope that helps!!!
Have a terrific Tuesday, my friend!
Chari
Morning BJ, There's alot going on in this post and I'm sure to forget something...but first, the stool with the Mister's football number on it is toooooo darn adorable! That is the neatest idea!
Next, Those pillows are too FANCY! Fancy Nancy said so! LOL ;) I love them all! But that bunny pillow is my favorite!
Thanks for sharing all the movie info too!
Hope you have a wonderful day!
Fancy Nancy
Love all your pillows, BJ! I love red and yellow together, too. They are all marvelous and just make you want to lean ack and saty awhile. Of course, I'd rest the bunny one on my lap so as to not crumple it :-)
Oh, I did forget something! Love your new blog dress...it will be perfect for the next Flaunt party! HeeHee! :)
Wow!! I did not see one thing that I didn't say "wow" to. Love your taste/style in decor and I'm on a mission to paint my honeys # on something.:-)
Blessings
Roxanne
I love your pillows especially the polka dotty one and the toile. I went out and added a Celtic Woman song to my blog, thank you they have a lovely sound.

*** Hello, old (OOPS! Make that "...longtime..."! Smiles!) RMS pal!!! Just enjoyed all of your MOST DELIGHTFUL BLOG sooo much!!! What a HAPPY PLACE to visit! The stool idea is sooooo cute (& I L-O-V-E the sentimentality!), and you have got some DARLING DISHES!!! But, that BUNNY PILLOW??? Well, DUH! Is that to-die-for or WHAT??? Me thinketh you are blessed with niceness & kindness from OTHERS, because you give so much of YOURSELF, BJ!!! Thank you for a lovely time! Warmly, Linda
I don't have any trouble loading up your blog - thought I would let you know. Love your bed pillows. Thanks for the inspiration - I'm trying to dress up my bed a bit! Sally
Gorgeous pillows! The Celtic music is divine and so festive for St. Patrick's Day. ThanX for commenting on my tiny entry in the parade.
Your yellow and red pillows are so pretty. And the rabbit pillow - perfect for spring and Easter!
Lorrie
Hi BJ, hope you're having a wonderful day, just popped in for a long-overdue visit. I gave Mr. Bloom that extra hug - he nearly did swoon!
Hugs, Lucy x
LOVE your kitchen stool and your pillows!! :-) HAve a great St.PAtricks day!!!
Monica
Such a cute chair, I LOVE that. AND, I think your pillows are gorgeous! We must have the same favorite colors!
hi! just got your comment....what if you got one of those window box things that is on legs? it is a stand type thing...that way you won't have to drill into the bricks on your house...if I think of anything else...I will absolutely be back!
BJ...love all your pillows but your fav, is mine, too! The little bunny pillow is absolutely adorable! :-)
Hi BJ, forgot to say...your blog came up quickly for me. Sometimes if my computer starts to drag, I try rebooting and if that doesn't solve it, I go to "Tools" and choose "internet options" and then delete temporary files. That clears out a lot of stuff (the cache) and sometimes helps. Best of luck...hope it speeds up for ya.
Susan
Hey you!!! Happy St. Pats day...hope you are well, we talked to johns family on the weekend(in Ireland) and they said there is a sign up at the pier in Belfast where the Titanic was build..it reads"IT WAS FINE WHEN IT LEFT HERE"....leave it to the Irish!!!!
Hey BJ; I just love all of your pillows, they are just so pretty. But my favorite is the bunny one, oh to sweet....... And putting your hubby's football # on your stool is just so sweet... love it...
Hugs;
Alaura
We had tickets to see the Celtic Woman on Mar 1st....an hour from our home. The day we had 8 inches of snow. We couldn't go :-(. The concert was not cancelled....they would not refund our money.....but if Celtic Woman comes back to the same arena they will consider giving us replacement tickets. I hope they come back...We would love to see them.
Oh my! After every section, I would say "oh I love that"...oh Look at this! I love it all!
Do you have the html for your blog at the top? I have the same problem and made sure it was my first "widget".
JudyBug
Oh I am so jealous you have a Kari & Kijsa original..... such pretty thing you have .....
Lovely post ... just full of beauty...

Hi BJ!
Thanks for your sweet comments! I'm still trying to get used to making my new hairdo look like my hairgirl did it!
LOVE the Celtic Women! They're awesome. Oh and Pillow Talk, I love those old Doris Day movies. I just watched a biography on her and she didn't have a bed of roses in life! What a woman to rise above all of it and survive!!
Loved your post darlin'!
Hugs, Sherry
GM BJ, Thanks for coming by...now did you make your Corn beef last night ?? Oh girl my turned out so good..of course I ate like a pig and then complained all night that my tummy hurt ha ha!!May you have a great day.hugs and smiles Gloria
Good morning BJ! Happy St. Patricks day after:>) I love your pillow parade! Youngest daughter is standing behind me and as I scrolled down looking at them she commented, "all of these pillows look like something you would choose!" And she is right! Have a great day dear. It was sunny ans 68 degrees here yesterday (54 today, but I'm not complaining!) spring is here!
Hope you had a lucky St. Patrick's Day.
I love Pillow Talk too and I think your pillows are just lovely. :)

Di
Good morning, BJ! I am a big fan of Celtic Woman. I have a couple of their selections in my play list. All of your pillows are so lovely, especially the hadmade bunny by Kari & Kijsa, what a wonderful gift:-)
Rhonda
BTW I'm going to e-mail you about the question you asked.
I love the story behind the number on the stool. And I love that rabbit pillow.
Have a good day.
Betty
Love the bunny pillow!! ...and I wish I could listen to the Celtic songs, but there is no volume on my work computer.. :0(
BJ - I could never thank you enough for all of your kind comments and concern about my husband. I am almost caught up-to-date with his story. Then I will only post about his situation once or twice a week with updates..
I just love all of your pillows. Beautiful fabric makes the pillow! Your stool in the kitchen is wonderful as well! Thanks for introducing Celtic Women. Really lovely music and I'd never heard of them before.
As to your blog problems, I think blogger is having a hard time. I had the worst problem Monday. I couldn't navigate anywhere and couldn't upload without trying over and over again. Even then I couldn't get everything to work.
Have a great day!
Robin@Miscellaneous Thoughts
Hello! I posted a comment yesterday here and it didn't get through. Let me try again. :-)
I love your pillows, I like the ones with toile fabric. Real pretty-love the kitchen stool too.
LOVE the music of Celtic Woman, BJ! What a great time for a reminder. I remember your friend sending you the rabbit pillow from K&K...such a cool gift!
Awwwwww isn't that sweet that you painted your hubby's football number on that stool. What a great idea. So sweet.
Your pillows are so nice too. I like yellow and red togther too. I get such a beautiful picture when i even think of the 2 of them.
hope you had a great St. Patrick's Day too!
Judi
I forgot to say I love the Celtic Women to. I have a Christmas CD as well as one I can listen to at any time and I always try to catch them on TV during Christmas.
