reasons for flowers

from real simple in May 2010.

just might be a reason to have flowers around all the time.

let it snow

like magic

tea towels

everywhere i turn i see adorable tea towels.

the part i don't get is how they are so pricey for 1 towel. ( in my house that would last about 1/2 a day) when i look at the prices, i think they could fly for a set of 3 or 4, but break my bank a bit for just one (because i would need 3 or 4!!)

i'm loving this one.

excuse to cook more

these are too darning to put away in a drawer.

the side of my bed

we're looking for a little something next to our bed. this just might do the trick.

art

i've always wanted fruit art for my kitchen. found here.

but as is the norm for me. i always think this is a project i should conquer and do myself!

is there a pattern here?

i'll take that towel right on top, thank you.

yep. same designer as the rug i was drooling over... but since i was dreaming up color skemes for the bath, and the blueish match the shower curtain we already have and love, how can i not love these?

OOO la la

i never thought myself to be a rug girl, but i'm a this kind of rug girl!
you'll see one of these in my house when i have $1500 to spare, and the husband reminded me, that i could promise him the dog wouldn't lay on it!

ruffly pillows

some day our couch with get some love and attention. i'm hoping it will be pretty and cozy.photo found here. directions here.
