Oh I know it's Academy Award Night. < insert stifled yawn >
I offer you instead an extension of Downton Abbey. And, since my storyline could be considered a spoiler, please do NOT read if you have not had the chance to view Downton Abbey yet.
My daughter-in-law shares my enthusiasm for the show and, knowing how much I enjoy it, she gave me these magnets for my birthday. All I'm going to say is that I've enjoyed them, but they are not going to live on my refrigerator. On the other hand, Matthew and Mary are going to live on the metal tray above the refrigerator. Pretty good digs for magnet people. ☺
Yes, just like Mary, I cut that evil Pamuk out of the picture. Did you see that Thomas and O'Brien are one character?
Please join Mary @ Little Red House for more mosaics.
Are you a Downton Abbey fan as well?
Yes we are new Downton Abbey fans. We ended up watching all of season 1 and 2 last week....
ReplyDeleteFun mosaic!
-chuckle- No! I did NOT give you permission to change your Icon. I loved that pic of you! Don't care if it did have the Christmas Tree in the back. -pout-

But yes, your latest Icon, of you as a little girl, is pretty cute too. Certainly better than being-a-pine-cone, like to *threatened,* in my comments. LOL
ReplyDeleteNope, have not gotten into Downton Abbey. And I adore Maggie Smith! But nope, have not. Perhaps I am so ready-for-bed by 9PM, that I'd not go for a show, which made me stay alert, till 10PM? -grin-
I can keep reading, till 10pm, but tv ..... Oh what a wild life I lead, hu? ,-)

What shall we watch tonight? I'll be homesick for Downton Abbey.
ReplyDeleteFun cutouts!
I guess I must be living underneath a rock because I have no idea what that show is all about or what station it is on. Clueless!
ReplyDeleteI love Downton Abbey!
ReplyDeleteMy sister came over last night and we sat and watched the first two episodes of season one, as she hasn't seen any of it. It was fun to watch it again and see all the details I'd missed the first time. The magnets are adorable.
ReplyDeleteLove the magnets!
ReplyDeleteI have already been in Downton Abbey withdrawal until I found out the local PBS station is reshowing the Christmas episode tonight.
I don't usually buy a lot of DVDs but these two are definitely going to be a purchase.
I love Downton Abbey! I do not know what I will do now that its over. I did not understand what you meant about Thomas and Obrien being one character
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun mosaic! I've heard so many great things about this show but I haven't seen it yet! I was hoping I could check it out at the library! Hugs! ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteI think that you know I LOVE Downton Abbey!
ReplyDeleteI need it back!!!!
((HUgs))

I have never seen it but you didn't spoil it for me. I have learned tonight that I can watch it on PBS.com so I may just start doing that. Maybe I'll get caught up for next season. Interesting magnets. Hugs,

I have not seen this show, but I have heard a lot about it. Enough that now I do want to watch it but I have to play catch up somehow. Great mosaic. Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteI am not familiar with Downtown Abbey. But I remember these cut outs, when I was kid, playing with paper dolls!
ReplyDeleteReal cool mosaic! I like it! Cathy
ReplyDeleteYes, I am a Downton Abbey fan. Believe it or not, J enjoys it also.
ReplyDeleteWhen he was in hospital we made a date to watch an episode together...he in his hospital room and I in my hotel room.
Oh my goodness me. I would have never thought of magnets. Cool. I love that program. V
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, the things they come up with!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the show, of course. Why did
they have to put a dead person on the page of magnets though? That's really weird.
I'm getting ready to see what they've come up with for Masterpiece Theatre tonight. I hear new Piorot's are coming soon.
Can't wait!
The magnets are fun. I've just started watching Downton Abbey .. have lots to catch up with! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHA! I love the magnets! I've watched this season online. If anyone is interested in it, PBS.org is showing them through March 6th. Thanks for sharing, Vee! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen Downton Abbey yet, it does sound like a series I'd like. Your magnets are neat!
ReplyDeleteFun magnets, Vee! They make an interesting collage.
ReplyDeleteI did not have the chance to watch Downtown Abby as yet. Hopefully thye will go to DVD and I can catch up in time for season 3.
Very cute mosaic! I have seen the link to the paper dolls. Fun!
ReplyDeleteVery well done mosaic.
ReplyDeleteStill waiting for Season 1 coming via Netflix or our local library (long wait from either source)...but your magnets look like fun! (Did you love paper dolls when you were a girl? I did!)
ReplyDeleteYou bet we are, thanks to you!
ReplyDeleteWe girls are big fans of Downton! Cute magnets...Thomas and O'brien are bad news....
ReplyDeleteHurray for Matthew and Mary!
Deanna
What a fun mosaic. I just skimmed over a lot of it since I'm just beginning season two and have already heard enough spoilers.
ReplyDeleteBut what a fun magnet set!
I LOVE Downton Abbey - I am just starting on Season Two episodes that I downloaded onto my Kindle while in the U.S. last month. I brought back the DVD set for Season One and loved every bit of it. Also enjoyed the "extra's" included with the set - such fun to see the actors chatting with each other about their characters.
ReplyDeleteSadly I won't get to view the last 3 episodes til May, when once again I am home for a visit in the States.
Okay I'm drooling over your magnets! I absolutely LOVE Downton Abbey. The season is over too quick it seems. I loved the ending this season. I guess I'm old fashioned... I love to see a happy fairytale ending.
ReplyDeletebig hugs, Sherry
It seems that everyone is talking about Downton Abbey. I haven't seen it. I think I'll need to watch the DVD when they begin to offer the shows in that format.
ReplyDeleteLove your magnets and the way you've chosen to display them.
Fun magnet set! I have yet to watch but it's on my list to see, everyone has been raving about it.
ReplyDeleteI loved the Oscars, I thought last night was pretty good, not great but good.
Love Downton Abbey! To bad we have to wait so long to see more. PBS is airing season 2 on their site now, for a limited time.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
Happy birthday Vee! What a nice celebration you had and I love all of the goodies you got. You sure have a cute looking family. I had to come back to this post because I too love Downton Abbey? In fact it's my favorite program. I'm sad that the season is over. I have these cutouts to but not sure what I will do with them. I hope you have a good week!
ReplyDeleteThird series being shot now.
