Friendship....

When I was little I loved friendship necklaces...

I think my first one came from 

one of those quarter machines..

a big red heart.. 

zig zagged down the middle... 

and *gasp*

I shared it with a boy....

I just saw these friendship rings.. 

from June designs.. 

and what a perfect throw back 

to the oldschool friendship necklace..

I just might have to get a set..

Warm and Cozy...

So basically it's not hard to find things I love.. 

I love a lot.. 

and recently I have been finding my self

in great desire of

cozy's for your cup of coffee.. 

because what in the world 

screams winter better than

a coffee cozy!

Here are a few fav's:

Grey cozy

from Natalya's Studio.. 

A silly mustache one from

Ruby Red Scissors.. 

A very Merry Christmas one

from Nimbu'Ru...

And a mustard one with sweet heart buttons

from The Sunshine Stitch... 

What's keeping your hands toasty this winter?

I Can't Decide...

Which color... 

I love them all!

From Margarita779's etsy shop... 

Chic Candy Necklace....

I love this shop..
Andie's Specialty Sweets.. 

once a week..
at least.. 

I stop by and visit the beautiful candy and chocolate

creations... 

I need a reason for sugar buttons.. 

and these chocolate mushrooms.. 

are just amazing.. 

but my favoritest of all.. 

are the candy necklaces.. 

what little girls' dreams are made of.. 

and maybe grown up girls' too!

Fall.... I miss you..

I know fall is coming shortly... 

for some reason.. 

this year.. 

I can't wait for it.. 

I am longing for leaves, and wind, and costumes.. 

I was getting all nostalgic when target put out their school supplies

a few weeks ago... 

I had to stop myself from buying pencils and notebooks.. 

since I really didn't need more.. 

It could be that this baby is coming in October.. 

maybe :)

Meanwhile, 

I search the internet for costumes.. 

and little jackets.. 

and crave pumpkin pie!

From Littlegoodall.. 

on Etsy.. 

Lights...

I hope everyone had a fun Memorial Weekend...

we had fun and disarray.. 

we ordered new furniture and had it delivered...

So all our stuff is everywhere it's not supposed to be now.. 

I do love the new furniture.. 

but it makes everything else you own look old ;)

It's a dark cherry wood.. 

and now I'm looking for some lamps to brighten

the room up a bit.. 

here are a few of my favs.. 

Eva Colored Glass from Pottery Barn.. $99

Lexington Crystal Table Lamp.. from Crate and Barrel

$229 (slightly out of budget!)

Uttermost Tall Meena $191 from amazon

$250 from Macy's

I think the Pottery Barn ones are my fav.. 

but I'm still looking.. 

I would also love them to be like $50 each.. 

We all can dream..

Happy Tuesday!

It's beautiful.. 

I might be swooning.. 

Banners....

I have fallen in love with

diaper bag anymore...

I am excited to get something smaller.. 

and something new for me!

I have been looking around

and I found this shop on Etsy..

but they are so cute... 

now to make up my mind.. 

here are a few of my favs..

Cyber Monday...

Happy Shopping everyone..

Mustaches and Monocles...

This last weekend the Fam and I

went to a little winter craft fair.. 

It was a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.. 

they had 'snow' made to make a field 

for snowball fights and snow sledding possible

in 70 degree weather.. 

no less.. 

The delight of my afternoon was 

the print I bought for the start 

of the re-decoration of my son's room.. 

It's going to be a slow process for sure.. 

but this little guy was so cute.. 

I just couldn't help sharing.. 

I love him!

The print is from Sey Studios.. 

the website.. 

the store.. 

Happy Wednesday!

Not So Guilty Pleasure...

I am in love with online magazines.. 

especially free online magazines.. 

(as seen here)

My new found love.. 

object of my adoration.. 

is Gifted.. 

by creature comforts.. 

a million ideas on just that.. 

gifting.. 

wrapping ideas.. 

favorite gifts from favorite bloggers.. 

and wonderful ideas of what 

to give this holiday season.. 

(family, if you are reading you 

might just get something you see in here, 

so shhhh.. don't tell)

If you like pretty things.. 

diy things.. 

giving gifts..

and things that are free

I suggest you sit back and enjoy!

Happy Halloween...

Happy Friday

Happy Halloween.. 

In honor of Holidays and Fall.. 

here are a few of my hearts desires.. 

(plus, I just have been window shopping 

like a crazy person and I am pretending that

I might be buying all these things.. When my sis

and I were little we would watch the home shopping 

network and we would each have a thousand

bucks and see what we would buy.. 

it was actually quite fun.. 

but I believe that it might have fueled

my adult window shopping habit!)

Today my shopping addiction is brought to you

 by the letter R for ruche.. 

if only because I could not leave their site 

for awhile.. 

I love this scarf.. 

and wish I had it like yesterday.. 

love these earrings.. 

and these too.. 

love these shoes.. 

but they are officially sold out.. 

lame

and last but not least.. 

I adore this purse to pieces.. 

i love the color.. 

New Shop Items..

In case you are feeling up for 

a shopping spree

I have listed new items in my little shop.

Getting excited for Halloween

so Enjoy!

A bit of window shopping...

So.. 

I'm not quite fond of window shopping.. 

when I'm actually at the store.. 

without money.. 

but when I am online..

it's a whole different ball-game.. 

So today I did a little window shopping 

from the comfy seat of my desk.. 

I adore this purse.. so cute.. 

from peacelovenpoladots.. 

I love this jewelry rack.. love..

from bluebirdheaven.. 

I heart these little slippers for my babe.. 

he probably wouldn't keep them on though.. 

from 4pippi

I might just love this pillow to death.. 

Mr. Lobber Lobber the Crab.. 

from lemonlemonpie.. 

This pillow is just so cheery.. 

it would bring a smile on the lowest of days.. 

from dedeetsyshop.. 

Have fun shopping.. 

or peering through windows..
