I’m Mrs. Shecky, the creator and author behind this blog. Its a simple blog coming from my comfortable chair at home in Sheckyville. Inspired by gardening, cooking, crafting and then photo blogging about it.
Tales From My Lens is my photo blog and I welcome you there too.

Old Hands Studio
Old Hands Studios is where I create and have loads of fun crafting. The ladies above are my Great, Great Great, and Great Great Great Grandmothers who are my inspiration. Because of them, their writing and crafts were instilled in me with ephemera saved throughout the years. My Etsy account is linked and hope you wander in to take a look. 
Thanks for stopping in.
