Think Pink...

My favorite pinks

Blush

Rosey

I love all the varying shades
it is so romantic and sweet and yes...
even sexy!


Have a great day...

Cheers!

IF ONLY...

I had a lovely dream...

I saw myself walking through this gate and into this room...

And then into my kitchen...hmmm

what's that ringing? 

What, my alarm clock...No!

time to get up

If only...

Enjoy the day...

these images will inspire me

to make mine productive

Cheers!

Guggy Girl...

It's a wet gray day in San Antonio..

NOT our usual TYPICAL sunny DAY

okay...so it's still winter

It always puts me in a mood  and

as much as I love my boys...my hubby, Wayne and son, Jacob

I tend to miss my daughter, BriAnna the most

Darn...I thought I had this "empty-nester"...

 missing my kids, wanting to bug my kids, feeling left out of their daily routines

"thing" sorted!

Pacific University RHA Prez


so...I'm sharing with whoever happens to read this
On days like today
I immerse myself in housecleaning
I AM A LAZY homemaker, so this is a BIG deal
and will even tackle the garage in search of goodies
I may find a few things and list on my Etsy site
make a bit of cash
that always cheers me up!


Have a great weekend!

Cheers!

Giselle Santa Monica...

Holiday Photos by Venece

Lori Innes

 I get excited when my found objects

catch the eye of an established shop owner

such as Lori Innes, jewelry designer and 

the owner of Giselle Santa Monica

1306 Montana Ave 

Santa Monica, CA 

90403

Photos: Giselle Santa Monica Facebook page

custom, new and vintage jewelry, clothing, art, and accessories


It makes the hunt for vintage pretties
more rewarding for me
knowing the objects Lori selects
will be offered
at a highly regarded boutique
and by a well-liked and respected lady...

Friendships...

I got a little surprise in the post today...

I wasn't expecting it 

which made it extra special!

awwwwww...

A darling handmade card...

My dear friend, Diana

favored me with one of her creations

A long distance hug which made my day...

Happy Valentines Day!

xoxo

Are ya'll ready?

Hey...hey... all you love birds

tomorrow is V-day

I know...I know...

prices are ridiculous on flowers

and chocolates!

But because...

we dread "that disappointed look"

 on the face of our special someone

do try to plan a little something wonderful

(but don't exceed your budget just to impress!)

gift idea: vintage tin filled with sweets & gift coupon 

be creative in your gift selection

(keep it simple and sweet)

 Enjoy the day...

remember that just being together

is the best gift of all!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY

xoxo

Waiting for Spring...

I just returned from a trip to California and Las Vegas

wonderful weather with sunny skies and warmth

well...

mostly warm and sunny

(I had to borrow warm clothing from my sisters)

I wasn't prepared to return home 

to freezing temperatures...

I am so ready for Spring!

Year of the Rabbit...

Happy New Year...Chinese New Year!

We are now in Las Vegas...

staying at the Bellagio

 and this is one of the displays 

in the atrium

simply incredible!

2011 is the year of the Rabbit!

I'll have more pix of the incredible displays

as well as a new shop  my friend, Diana 

took me to in the SF Bay Area which is special 

and I have photos to share with you!
