Etsy Friday Favorite

I was drawn to Karen Fields Gallery on Etsy because of her original, contemporary artwork and colorful palette.  I love the bold flowers, landscape and abstract paintings.  She also has a great blog to check out.

Rustic Retreat in North Carolina

 

Cashiers, North Carolina was once a rain forest and is set in a valley in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains.  This home is cozy and airy and very inviting - rustic yet refined.  The natural colors and large porch are my favorite parts of this home.

dr. delphinium

Things have been very busy lately, as we are planning our first wedding.  The wedding will be in May and I m loving all phases of the planning.  Had a meeting yesterday with a florist.  As I was waiting on my contact to see me, I couldn't resist taking a few pictures.

dr. delphinium designs and events has been in Dallas, TX for over 20 years and offers the most beautiful florals and events I've seen.  It was voted D Magazine "Best Florist in Dallas" for 2010.  I am looking forward to seeing what they come up with for our daughter's wedding. :}

Love .... Weirs Fall Harvest

We are lucky enough to live close to Weirs Furniture and I was in the store a couple of days ago and just had to share pretty, Fall entry.

I plan on using a few of these ideas at home.  Such a warm and welcome feel.

Casual, Fall weekend wear

I just got the Lands End Canvas catalog and found a lot of great, casual looks for fall and very reasonably priced.  Don't you love the look of layering and scarves?

All of the pieces can be found online at Lands End Canvas, or by shopping their catalog.
