Hi there … I’m so glad you stopped by!
My name is Pearl Sanborn and I am truly blessed beyond measure to be married to the man of my dreams, to have 4 amazing children – plus our 2 new children-in-loves, our first little grand-daughter, and by the fact that we all love doing life together… with God at the center of it all!
I love sharing information that’s creative, inspiring, and helpful! And, for the last 21 years or so, I’ve been sharing this information with people in many different ways – through websites, newsletters, magazines, books, interviews, newspaper articles, talk radio program, videos, etc.
I believe that we can each find joy in our daily lives {whatever they may look like right now}, and it is my desire to help you find joy in the little things.
So, anytime I find something creative, inspiring, and useful, I will pass it along for you to enjoy as well. Please feel free to contact me & let me know if you have questions, or if you’d like to see me cover a particular subject.
You can connect with me personally in many ways:

*Remember… love, joy, and happily ever afters doesn’t just happen in fairy tales, you truly can live the storybook life!
Creatively Yours,
Pearl Sanborn
One blog led to another, then another, then yours. I’ve just started ‘reading’ blogs and considering having one of my own (never thought I’d say that). But my point in writing was to ask a really ‘off the wall’ question about an image you posted on your ‘flickr’ page from your blog.
You shared a picture of some Christmas ornaments on a photo page. In the box of ornaments is one that has a lady holding a banner. My Mother had a Christmas ball just like that when I was a child and it was my favorite. I was the one that hung it on the tree every year. She used to tell me that it would be mine when I grew up. Well, the ball didn’t make it (broke years ago). I’ve never seen one like it, until I saw yours. I was hoping that if, by chance, the ornaments are in their original box, you could tell me the name or company that is on it. I’ve kept my eye open for years so any insight to the where-abouts would be most appreciated!! Thanks!

I found it for you! I’ve been looking around & finally -there it was – actually there are 2 in the box!

Let me know if you win!
Hello-I love your website and have been visiting for awhile! I was admiring the little victorian house for sale by owner pics and using them as inspiration for ours and now they only part of them are there! Please email me and let me know how I can see these again!
Thanks

if you are growing patio tomatoes in a container can you move them inside and have tomatoes from them in winter as well as summer?
Nice post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I’ve really loved surfing around your weblog posts. After all I will be subscribing in your feed and I’m hoping you write once more very soon!
I have been trying to find your Facebook web page so I could like it, as I have really enjoyed checking out your online site! Thanks again
Absolutely innovative. I love to reuse things and this is a great idea to try.
Thank you Keiko!
