September 2007
Welcome to La Rea Rose, a studio blog about home and garden decorating, tole painting. decorative design, romantic treasures, vintage finds, friendships and all things cherished! As a new season is upon us I felt inspired to finally start my blog. This will be a work in progress as I share with you a bit of my world that revolves around the creating I love so much. I will be sharing a few pictures of my designs in all things roses, my specialty and favorites. Later, I will share other projects around decorative painting and a few stories here and there too. But first, I took a picture today of my first mum of the season in it's yellow and rust splendor. It's so pretty. I love this time of year with the cooler days, decorating the house for a cozy and warm feel that only comes with the colors of Fall and the falling leaves.

This was a nice post for your first one, and you've come a long way since, with your blog evolving.
Five years is a long time and I'm glad you continue to share your life and craft with us.

Your first post was lovely, Celestina! I changed the name of my blog too. I wonder how many of us have done that. Here's to many more years of blogging, meeting new friends, and blessing us all with your talents and friendship.
Blessings,
Sandi
I had forgotten about the name change! Congrats on 5 years!!
Dear Celestina,
I enjoyed seeing your very first post and picture. What a great idea that your bloggy friend suggested. I only hope that my blog is as cherished as yours is in five years. I bet you have come a long way, but the one thing that I'm sure has remained the same for you as it has for me is this: Our bloggy friends mean the world to us, don't they? Thank you for sharing this. I'm so blessed that I fell upon your blog, and I want you to know how special your friendship is to me. Oh, and that was a very good first post.

Fun to read your first post. So much better than mine. My cousin and I were going to blog together but when she decided not to I changed the name.
Hi dear Celeste........
It seems that time doesn't exist and your pretty mums are still alive! Your first post could fit in this time. I always enjoy visiting you. It always gives me the feeling of being in a safe haven. Happy creating and enjoy the beautiful colours of fall dear!
Blessings and hugs,

FIVE years, thats a long time, congratulations on such a wonderful milestone.
Hi Celestina, Congratulations on your five years. Did it really seem that long or like most of us the time just seems to fly? The fall of the year is my favorite time. Normally we are headed to Branson right now, but it will have to wait until the next year. Have a great weekend. Hugs from Your Missouri Friend.
Hello Celeste... hard to believe it has been that long... I think I found you in my first year of blogging, which is going on five years ago now as well... and I am soo happy to say I am the proud owner of so many of your beautiful creations, and also that we are friends... your first post was just as beautiful as the ones you do now, as it came right from your heart... happy blog anniversary!... much love, xoxo Julie Marie
Congrats on your 5 years of blogging!
Congrats on your 5 yrs of blogging! I too have met so many sweet friends and thanful that I met you!! I bet you are as swamped as I am right now with all of the holiday painting. I have been listing items in my shoppe on Etsy. I posted a picture of Simoni in her new dress just now. First time I got a chance to take a break today.
Hope you are enjoying lovely autumn weather!
