Big Bed and Honey Man's Chair

Shouts of TREASURE!!! rang out around the castle recently for at long last the new furniture arrived, a reading chair for Honey Man and a big bed for both.

The first treasure to be brought to the royal bed chambers was the reading chair, thoroughly inspected by Minnie.

Surely this is a reading throne fit for Queenie’s Honey Man.

Next the mighty delivery men carefully assembled the long awaited big bed.

Queenie’s king sized dream bed full of design details to please.

Though Queenie is timeless, alas her visage has come to the point where comfort has merit…

Much merit…

Is necessary indeed

After the mighty delivery men completed their task it was to Queenie to adorn the royal big bed.  I asked my trusty entourage, Delicious if they would help. Alas, they did run with excuses of their backyard kingdom to be kept. 

With scepter in one hand and new linens in the other the making of the bed was complete.  Surely this is a big bed fit for royalty.

Ahhhhhh… To rest to sleep

Have a great day.

Always, Queenie Believe

Journal, Handmade, One of a Kind

TREASURE!!!

“Treasure!” is the exclamation sung out by Queenie or Honey Man when a package arrives at the castle. A short time ago whilst wandering around Etsy I happened across a wonderful shop called Making My Rent where the awesome Amber sells the most wonderful handmade journals I’ve seen in a long time. All her journals are handmade, one of a kind, treasures, each with a story of their own and made with love. After an extended period of window shopping each journal I decided on this journal made from an up-cycled, lost and lonely, copy of Where the Wild Things Are.

The front cover pictures our intrepid hero in his Doctor Denton jammies and the back pictures some of the wonderful Wild Things.

The journal is assembled with coptic-stitching which allows the journal to lay flat when open.  An aspect Queenie especially likes for sketching and noting my many flights of fancy into suspended disbelief.

After reveling in the newly opened treasure I added a picture.

And as is the Queenie tradition, I dubbed my wonderful new journal

Have a great day.

Always, Queenie
