little treasures and flowers



                                                               hello there!

  found this cute little wooden caddy yesterday at Typo... perfect for flowers and pretty glasses..

 
 

 
will be doing some sewing this weekend; a couple of pillow slips and a ruffled table runner!



 
I also got these soft hand towels with the tassels from Paris.  Just in a grocery store.. no where special!

 
Have lots of pink roses from a bridal bouquet I made at college the other day...  I always keep them for home after I have played with them for a bit!
 
 
I also got a couple of cute little glazed dishes for candles and my favourite vanilla bean candle.. smell good enough to eat!
 

 
Have to find somewhere to hang this picture...  cant decided on where to leave it.

 
Had a few hydrangeas left from last week; they lived a lot longer than I  expected!

 
 
 
The floral pillow above was also a flea market find in France... love the muted colours!
 
I have a busy weekend lined up; hope you all have a great weekend too!

    You are going to have so much fun decorating and filling that little caddy...I can just see it at Christmas filled with evergreen and ornaments (I've always wanted one!!). I love your vignettes, so pretty! I wish I could sew!

    Have a wonderful holiday!

    XO,

    My sis advised me about your website and how nice it is.
    She’s right, I'm really impressed with the writing and slick design. It appears to me you’re just scratching the floor by way of what you'll be able to accomplish, but you’re off to a great
    begin!

    Hi Laura,
    Love the towels, and to have made a French market purchase in France does not surprise me. I so wish our markets buyers made more european selections stocking the shelves here.
    The pink of your roses set the tone for all thing Romantic cottage chic and how beautiful it is here.

    Thank you laura for taking the tim e to visit me, it joys my heart when I see you have stopped by and best leaving a comment.

    See you soon my sweet friend and looking forward to what next you will inspire us.

    beautiful week ahead and all the inspiration June holds for you.

    xx
    bisous
