Baby Nurseries

Since my sister is pregnant

and I've been planning her shower,

I've had babies on my mind...

If I could redo Goosie Girl's nursery

from when she was a baby,

these are a few that I might choose...

This definitely caught my fancy...

Love the colors and especially those poms...

Is this flower chandelier fabulous or what?!

I love how this crib is in front of the window

and has that sweet garland above it...

This rug makes it...

This looks like something out of a fairy tale...

This changing table area is gorgeous...

You know those are just framed pieces of fabric...

And of course, I adore this one

with that black/white chevron rug...

Ice Cream Cone Holders

I've really got summer on my mind...

In fact we have 20 school days left...

But who's counting?!

I'm loving this do-it-yourself

ice cream cone holder from 100 Layer Cake...

Perfect for a summer soiree...

Or an end of the year party...

 Looks rather easy to construct...
And your cones have a nice home to wait in...
No breaking...
Easy to grab...
A perfect addition to an ice cream table...

Get the full how-to here...

Monday Sparkle

Well, how was your Mother's Day?

Mine was extremely relaxing

which was exactly what I wanted...

Goosie Girl & The Hub 

even did the grocery shopping for me...

And now Monday already...

I needed a bit of sparkle to get me going today...

Why yes...I would love a cup of coffee...

Now, I must get dressed...

I can't forget those sweet treats I'm taking...

Even Olivia sparkles...

Where is my purse?

My mantra to get me through today...

Evening wear...

The perfect shoe...

Cocktails anyone?

Dinner is served...

Perhaps some dessert?

Time for bed...

And a little Fairy Dust sprinkled for sweet dreams...

Sweetopia's Cookies

I am such a fan of Sweetopia's...

She is an AMAZING cookie decorater...

I ordered her favorite tool...

the KopyKake...
And I followed her tutorial that she gave...

Here are her perfect cookies...

and here are mine...

Same general design 
but I changed it up a bit...
What do you think?


P.S. - Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Peach Love

The color Peach 

has been catching my eye lately...

And it is just stunning...

How perfect would this be

to wear on a weekend

relaxing & perhaps antiquing?

And then a bit more formal for the evening...

Maybe you need to bring some of the outdoors in...

With a sweet treat...

and a stripey straw...

Perhaps you'd like to invite

a friend or two over...

And your mantra for the day...
