... isn't quite so still all the time.
Almost any surface in our house would be more comfortable than the top of the little jelly cupboard that sits in the corner of our dining area, but it is one of Baby's favorite spots.
This was how the little pine cupboard looked back in the early 90's.
At that point, the little mirrored cabinet I bought as a finishing touch was resting upside down on top while the cupboard beneath waited for its makeover.

It's amazing how a few appliques, a glass knob, and some white paint can transform a piece.
Baby precariously perches on the outermost corner, always taking care not to disturb the aqua Franciscan platter and my thrift store St. Therese and St. Jude planters.
From this spot, she can easily keep an eye on the screen feeder
attached to the dining room window.

She's also able to watch over the kitchen, dining area, living room, and entryway of our little split level, as well as the family room behind if she looks over her shoulder.
And as we all know...
...those beautiful eyes don't want to miss a trick.
I think she just spotted a bird out on the screen feeder.
So while Baby watched over her world from the corner of the dining area...
...I headed to my office to play with PicMonkey!
Oh-my-gosh, I am just loving how my photos look after a bit of tweaking!
Have a great weekend, everyone. It may hit 80 degrees here in New England this weekend!
Such crazy weather!

Baby knows what she is doing, and she is definitely posing in regal style. She knows how to use her beauty.
ReplyDeleteShe certainly is a beautiful cat. And I think you are right...she loves it because from there the world is her oyster. Hugs, Deb=^..^=x6

What a beautiful girl. Adorable!
ReplyDeleteThe real reason Baby sits on that cupboard is that she knows it's a perfect foil for her colouring. It also has a mirror for her to check her looks. lol
ReplyDeleteThe cupboard is so sweet--love what you did to make it so pretty. I really love Baby--what a beautiful cat! I have a thing for black and white furbabies. Thanks for sharing--your photos are awesome! (I love PicMonkey too)
ReplyDeleteHi Donna,
ReplyDeleteYour BABY is magnificent, reminds me of our 'rag doll' cat, Vixie Lu Lu Belle, who lived with us for 14 years after my husband rescued her in a snowstorm... She was a grand lady and a best friend. The images of Baby brought a huge smile to my face today...
