Eye Candy from Flickr & more!

I can't tell you how many times I go to Flickr and look at all the photos that I've marked as my favorites. It's the place I go for inspiration!

Look at all this beautiful inspiration! Can you tell I love soft colors? Each one of these photos is breathtaking to me and when I put them all together in these mosaics....it's just pure BLISS!

I can't get enough of pink old English roses!

I think going through the photos on Flickr and finding my favorites has really opened my eyes to what I like! I think I like pink more than I ever realized!

You must go visit Jermaine at French Kissed. She has set the most amazing table (sneak peek below) and she has dedicated it to me! It is so stunning!!! Her blog is just filled with eye candy!!!

Want some more eye candy? I love this new song from Michael Buble!

My New Toile Pillows

I was at Marshalls a couple weeks ago and spotted these toile pillows! Love them!!! I wanted darker blue pillows for Fall and Winter and these are perfect! (I just changed my slipcovers on my sofa which is why they looked so wrinkled in these photos. It takes a day or so for the wrinkles to relax)

Beau likes them too because they are filled with feathers and nice & soft...

I also changed out my pastel colored plates that I had over my mirror with blue and white but just for the holiday season. In Jan. I'm going back to the softer colors which I like better.

The pillows were only $19.99 for two so I bought another set so I can have an extra set of covers. With a dog and teenagers hanging out on the couch I've learned that with multiple washings they start to look a little tired after awhile so now I'll have a back up pair of covers. I'm going to make covers for this other set of pillows for Lauren's bed but for now I have them in my wicker cart...

This cart is on the landing of my staircase...

Kelly at Rose Vine Cottage Two bought the same pillows in red! We both have the same Ikea sofa too! Click here to go see hers!

Show and Tell Friday

Welcome to Show and Tell Friday! This week I'm going to share some beautiful gifts I got from my blogging friends.

These beautiful cards above are from M ~Tales from OC Cottage. They are from photos she took! I think I'm going to frame the one with the stacked teacups! She also sent me some more glittered starfish! I love these! That German Glass Glitter really sparkles! Did you see the great magazine she found? She wrote about it on her blog! It looks beautiful!
Next up is an adorable Halloween necklace from my friend Joy~Cupid's charm! I enjoyed wearing this for a couple weeks before Halloween and now I have to wait until next year! Joy has such beautiful jewelry and I have quite a collection of it now!
This pretty Cookie Lee bracelet was a birthday present from Stephanie. She knows how much I love shells! I love this!!

Thank you all for the beautiful gifts!
