Isn't it amazing how awful sin and greed cause us to be to each other? I wonder what our economy would be like if greed and dishonesty weren't so common. We even had a volunteer treasurer at our church who stole from us.
I collect flower frogs, vases, books on gardening and flower arranging, and vintage kitchen towels. Your collections are pretty!
" 'Yes, I am coming soon' Amen. Come, Lord Jesus." Rev. 22:20 NIV
It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope— the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ" Titus 2:13 NIV)

Welcome to Oak Rise Cottage, the Home of an Incurable Collector!
In this blog I will be sharing my ventures into the worlds of a collector with multiple enthusiasms. At Oak Rise Cottage there are collections such as items with pineapple motif, blue and white dishes and fabrics, tablesetting components, books in both regular and miniature editions, fruit motif items, Christmas holiday accessories, and so on...The pineapple evokes a hostess' love of sharing house and home with family and friends. Guests to Oak Rise Cottage share the collector's bounty -- based on my view that the house should express the personality and interests of the owner.
