let's escape...

 

Let's just run away to somewhere where the warm breeze blows and we can spend the day with our toes in the sand... who's with me?

Faded Hydrangea...

 

Hydrangea is my all time favorite.  I love all of the varieties and I love them when they are fading with the summer sun.  When that soft green sneaks into the petals to mix with the pink reminding me to appreciate the unparallelled beauty in nature...

Happy Monday!

Weekend Wishes.. a little late!

 

Oh My Goodness... it is the weekend..  I dream of being here...

As it seems fall is coming and we cannot avoid it too much longer let's get prepared...

Someone please drop this by whenever you have a chance..

We could follow it up with something like this my friends!

I fell for this amazing artwork- add a little something new to your walls.

We all need some of these to get by.. Hunter is my favorite!

Planning a fall wedding?  Some beautiful inspiration..

Also if you have a minute stop by the shop and see what's new for you for fall.

Casual Lux..

 

As the days grow warmer and longer and we start to dip our toes into summer I long for clean casual luxuries..  Fresh greenery, fresh from the farmers market fruits and berries, time worn linens and a mix of old and new.  It gives me a feeling of freedom and getting lost in the days where our schedule is less restricting and scheduled.

Looking forward to beach days, pool days, lazy reading days and little spritzings of work in between the fun with family and friends.

Happy Summer!

Grey and red...

First of all - dying over this wall of beautiful grey weathered wood.  Second - love the contrast of the little weeds below and her touch of red and white... just about perfect.

Wishing you a wonderful Friday my friends..

I would love to know if you are going to see Gatsby today or if you went last night??  I am so sad I won't be able to see it until I return!!!

Take me away... to France

 

Let's face it some days your inbox can be more foe than friend...   That has been my last couple of days, one icky email after another (with a few exceptions).  Well this morning when this little beauty landed in my in box I felt someone had thought of me and sent me this special getaway even if just for a few moments..  The really cool part is that you can actually go to this beautiful place and stay as long as you might like to.  This is a beautiful Villa from Haven in Paris and although it is out of my budget for travel this year it would be the perfect setting to make some beautiful memories with family and friends.

One gorgeous space after another to would invite you to relax and dream of a wonderful life in the French countryside.  Take a few minutes to go there... if even only in your dreams.. see isn't that better?  I feel better already!  (okay now back to work)
