Hi friends,\u00a0 hope you are having a great and relaxing weekend. Here mine has been very nice so far and just what I needed:) Enjoyed dinner with friends, a few fun outings, celebrated a\u00a0 new baby in our family, went to the city a few days ago and got to meet the little cutie pie.<\/p>\n

Brought back so many good memories:)\u00a0 Now they are all grown up, which is always bittersweet. Today it’s all about down time (much needed) then an early dinner with friends, a nice way to end the weekend. Hope yours is going well too! Onward with my Seven on Sunday……<\/p>\n

1 CHARLOTTE TERRELL ART\u00a0 <\/strong>Well, all I can say is\u00a0 I really chose well when I decided on an artist to paint a painting for our foyer wall in our PB home. I was immediately drawn to Charlotte’s work, it really called my name. Just fell in love with her entire aesthetic.<\/p>\n

I have been a huge fan of her work since I discovered her and though I wanted to find an artist local to PB, I could”t get her paintings out of my mind. Plus shes from Tennessee, so she is<\/em> southern:) I think she captured the low country early morning sky and water just perfectly, it is everything I wanted and more. It is not totally done yet but here it is so far. Cannot wait to hang this up!<\/p>\n

Click here to visit her website and be prepared to fall in love:)<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Just as she got started-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I so appreciated how she kept me in the loop and welcomed my feedback, not all artists are so easy to work with:) I had in mind a scene from the low country in soft beautiful tones that would enhance the soft color palette we have in the home, to say she delivered is an understatement:)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I loved how she worked with me every step of the way, sharing progress pictures as the painting evolved, and\u00a0 a few days ago I mentioned maybe adding egrets which are such a integral part of nature in the low country and just like that, there are now three elegant egrets flying in the gorgeous sky!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is the painting almost done, not quite there but just about. Next time you see this magnificent piece of art it will be hanging in our PB home!<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 SAY HELLO TO OUR NEWEST MELAMINE! <\/strong>Was sooo excited to see our stunning new melamine samples come in this week. Yes, you better believe it was love at first sight!! I can’t stop looking at them, I can see a beautiful table set with these now:) \u00a0 There is also one more interchangeable pattern coming in a few weeks.<\/p>\n

These are going into production as we speak and with luck we will have these to us in late March\/early April just in time for spring and alfresco entertaining which cannot come soon enough!<\/p>\n

5. MANTLE REDO <\/strong>I wanted to add some springy cheer to my dining room mantle. Had my flowers from the NY flower market from last week that were for the most part still going pretty strong, so picked up some darker pink roses from a local market, added them to the existing flowers in our best selling Ralph vases (click here<\/strong><\/em><\/a>)\u00a0 and voila!<\/p>\n

I was able to instantly pull together this pretty vignette on my dining room mantle. Added two of the new small double happiness bud vases (my new favorite bud vases that just arrived, click here<\/strong><\/em><\/a>) the gorgeous large Staffordshire dogs (we are down to the last few pair, click here<\/strong><\/em><\/a>)\u00a0 and it was an instant winner.

6. INSPIRING STORY OF THE WEEK<\/strong>\u00a0 OK I am ready to vote for Ezra for president:) What an inspiration this kid is, next time I complain about something small or I hear one of my kids do the same, I will think about this incredible young man. His words and smile truly light up a room!

7. SUNDAY’S SURVEY<\/strong> Are you<\/em> a binge series watcher? Funny how even 8 years ago that was not even a “thing”. And honestly it wasn’t a thing really in my household either until maybe a year ago…I always heard about everyone binge watching this or that and felt like I was missing out:)<\/p>\n

Now it seems everyone is binge watching something, me included. Have you seen Bloodline on Netflix? We started watching it and haven’t stopped. Just started season 3, it is so compelling and addicting with so many twists and turns, it keeps you on the edge of your seat.<\/p>\n

I was the same way with The Crown and Suits I find the world of TV watching, frankly overwhelming. There are so many new things coming out constantly, no wonder the movie tehaters are suffering. I always wonder how people find out about new series, Bloodline I just happened to read about and we started to watch it. So……..are you a binge watcher?<\/p>\n
