Garage Sale Heaven!
On Wednesday, my Mom and I drove to Beaumont to preview and help out at the Wesley United Methodist Church annual garage sale. My aunt and her daughter, my cousin, are volunteers in charge of this amazing garage sale, and they work on it off and on all year, sorting and hand pricing every single ite…

Hey May!
Goodness gracious - the entire month of April zoomed past me without me putting so much as a sentence here on the old blog - what a slacker! Well, I just had to flip the calendar so to speak and greet you and the month of May and let you know I'm still here...
Thanks for still being my friend despite…
Way Back When-sday - Easter Memories!
I decided to bring back a blog feature that used to be so much fun - Way Back When-sday! That's where I take a particular year or even an era or a day from my past and post about it on Wednesday along with photos and images from that time. Since today is my Birthday, I thought it would be the perfec…

(Sweet Easter Inspiration Kit - $12.00 - Just Bee 'n Me Boutique on Etsy)
I guess I'll never cease to be amazed at the way time slips through my fingers. What is now almost the end of February 2013 feels more to me like January 2011 or something...but it's not. It is "now"; a new day in a rapidly agi…

A Christmas "Crafternoon" with Family!
We finally did it - the girls in my family that live here in the Houston area have been talking about doing a crafting afternoon (or "crafternoon" as we call it) at my house for a long time now, and this past Sunday afternoon we did just that! I gathered a lot of my fabric and trim stash as well as…
Where's Becky Been?
I looked at my last blog post and saw that it was just over a month old - my goodness gracious, what a blog slacker!
But folks, I have to say it - I just don't feel like blogging about all the things going on in my life these days...and there is a lot going on. (mostly all good too, but some quite sa…
What to Wear?
Struggling with what to wear today? Can't find anything in your closet that you like? We might want to try these clothes on today - they always fit perfectly and never go out of style!

We opened our Just Bee 'n Me Boutique Etsy shop right on schedule on Friday, August 31st - yay!

Our Cottage Coffee Bar
9/28/13 Edited to add: I saw that Donna of Funky Junk Interiors was hosting a link party featuring Creative DIY Coffee Stations, so I immediately knew I wanted to feature our fun coffee station that we put together from vintage finds and junk - so, even though this post originally posted about a y…
