Baby, It's Cold Outside!

Brrr...cold snap last night!

I smiled when I watched the morning news program
 broadcast from New York yesterday
 and spied snowflakes in the background.

It's not snowing here...

but it's definitely time to break out the winter jacket.

In keeping with that theme,
all seemingly unrelated items,
Winter White and a glint of sparkle.

Etsy Favs Today!

I was checking in on my Etsy shop this morning

and the following items appeared in my

"new items to my favorite shops" feed.

Somehow together they created a dreamy mood.

Don't you agree?

So if you have not discovered these artisans for yourself...

here are some new shops to check out!

Yellow + Pollen = Spring!

My Treasured Images

It's official, spring is here!
There is a golden yellow, filmy dust on everything outside.
I even saw some people walking around
with face masks this morning!
This hails my favorite time of year
and because everything outside is yellow,
I thought everything on this page this morning should be
well...
yellow!

The Love Shop

Limezinnias Design

Lisa Congdon

Las Palmas...Palm Tree Art!

Maybe it's the season?

Maybe I'm homesick?

Maybe it's the weather?

30 degrees outside this morning!

Close your eyes, can you hear the way the fronds rustle in the breeze?

Smell the warm air?

Feel the warmth of the sun?

Hydrangea Happy

Orchid Love

Hydrangea, A Southern Love!

I was at Boxwood Gardens & Gifts in Atlanta the other day.

If you have not been, put it on your short list of boutiques to visit when you are in town.

They have flowers, furnishings, antiques, style trends & fashion.

I did not take pictures, but click on the link above to visit their store online.

Be sure to look at "Fashion", they had vintage couture button bracelets 

that featured Chanel, Givenchy & Hermes.

Very chic!

A visitor can wander several times around the store from one bountiful room to the next,

outside to the garden,

  and still not see all the merchandise.

So you may be asking yourself, why a post about Hydrangea?

Boxwood Gardens & Gifts was filled to capacity with Hydrengea in different colors

 and species, some rare.

I was thinking about them this morning when I was looking at Etsy.

Here is a collection of Hydrangea Art works from Etsy.

Different colors, styles, species...rare.

Which one do you like?

I like them all of them!
