Good late afternoon!  I am back. Missed being in blogland…..even for a few days:) Half of my trip (4 days was spent “college shopping”…it was fun, incredibly cold, and adventurous. It was fun being on the road with my son except for when we fought about me wanting to stop and buy an umbrella and be 5 min late (gasp) to a presentation or when we argued about where to stop and eat.<\/strike> Besides that it was just peachy!  We enjoyed the quality time together and seeing the energy of those college campuses just made me want to be 18 all over again. Youth really is wasted on the young:)<\/center>
 <\/center>
I was supposed to leave today for VA. but my sister is sick and frankly I am a little wiped out so at my husbands insistence, am staying home and just going to catch up on all kinds of things that need my attention! Nothing like having an unexpected chunk of time to get productive!! So here is what’s new and exciting….<\/center>
 <\/center>
 <\/span><\/i><\/center>
<\/center>
<\/center>
<\/center>
Got <\/span><\/i>my window treatments done in my kitchen! Love it, it really warms up the space so much and my beloved blue and white fits in beautifully. This is Brunschwig and Fils, Digbys Tent for anyone who wants to know. I think I will have place mats made with my leftover fabric….(taken with my iPhone, better pictures to follow soon)<\/center>
 <\/center>
Here is the fabric, it was love at first sight…<\/center>

The colors here are horrible…but you get the idea!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

 <\/center>
I <\/span><\/i>am always on the prowl for really high quality faux flowers. I love flowers and nothing can replace the real deal but since I like to have them all over, it is both practical and maintenance free to have the faux around along with the real. So I was super thrilled to find the best <\/u>cherry blossoms and fabulous orchid stems I have seen to date, I ordered a  bunch and will be adding them to my online shop under new arrivals. They are incredibly  real looking, beautiful stems, gorgeous blossoms come in 2 lengths, I opted for the “maximum wow factor” and went with the 54″, and the orchids are simply amazing, here they are…….<\/center>
 <\/center><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

Mixed two stems of faux orchids with my real orchids…can you tell which is which?<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
One of my big jars filled with the white blossoms in my hallway<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
 The pink version<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
 And on my living room chest……<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/center>
<\/center>
<\/center>
<\/center>
  Love them…waiting for my next batch to add a few more stems to each jar<\/center>
 <\/center>
<\/center>
<\/center>
Getting <\/span><\/i>in some really fabulous new goodies for my shop. I am so excited, haven’t been this thrilled about new goods in a long time! I had mentioned my new tabletop soon to be added, it will up and running in the next day or two along with a tabletop giveaway to celebrate its arrival. Have some stunning new silver additions to my growing family of beautiful silver.  Then got some amazingly beautiful new blue and whites. If you are looking for an incredible and affordable tureen look no more, these are the prettiest I have seen without exaggeration.  So take a look at some of the new goodies! As always if you have any questions<\/span>\/inquires click here<\/span><\/a> to email me. Most of these items are now up in  my online shop, click here <\/span><\/a>to visit me!<\/center>
