Hello Monday ... Hello Gratitude

Hello Monday!
Hello gratitude!

And boy do I appreciate things settling down here

so I can spend more time focusing on the good in my life

and

all the simple joys along the way!

  

I had a delightful visit to one of my favorite home and garden stores

Roger's Gardens.

I came away with the cutest coffee cup and saucer!

I enjoy using it every morning now 

during my coffee, candles and gratitude

before the sun comes up 

morning ritual!

And talk about simple pleasures

how cute are these reading  glasses by 

Caddis

I will tell you more about them and the fabulous company that makes them in another post!

I am so excited to know

Soft Surroundings

now carries my favorite skincare line

Erno Lazlo!

I have been a loyal Lazlo user since I found it in Neiman Marcus 

when I was 18!

Now that' true  brand loyalty!

Speaking of Soft Surroundings

I went to one of their store openings on Friday.

I'll share more about that tomorrow!

Since I replenished my skincare

I decided to fluff up my cabinet.

I lined the whole inside with some hand made paper I got at 

Roger's Garden's.

I cut it to measure and tacked in on with a glue stick.

It was a quick under an hour project

that makes me happy every time I open my cabinet!

The last couple of months I have been working on updating 

some interior pieces

as well as my outside rooms.

I am loving so many 

Opal House Collection 

at Target.

Like this bamboo chair I added to my

guest room/ closet for my brights.

I got a couple  of new pillows from the same collection.

I also took down a wall sized map

that was left over from the kid years.

Now I have a new wall to hang my accessories!

Not only do I love seeing them

it makes it so much easier to style outfits

when pieces are out in the open.

When my kids started moving out

I literally grieved for each one as the left

and 

for quite some time.

I am now securely on the other side of that hill

and 

definitely appreciate all of the up sides of having 

children grown and flown.

Like finally having great closet spaces

and rooms for my clothe collections.

I really believe you have to intentional with your 

daily Gratitude

and 

focus on all the good.

My black and whites are all kept nice and tidy in the grey room.

I also have a rack in there where I can pull outfits together 

for the week.

I am ever so grateful

that it really feels 

like we are once again 

getting our life in order.

I think a little fluffing the nest

can really freshen up your spaces

and

add in daily joy and beauty.

I am also getting so excited for 

the upcoming wedding in July!

When my youngest son Hunter will marry the love of his life.

Lots of beautiful memories to be made!

As always my friends

I wish you love and joy

as you style your life
