I love this shop!

Soap gems, ottoman trays, and polka dot coasters..oh my!

If you don't already know, these are from Jamie Meares's shop, Furbish. She has a blog

 I Suwannee, as well. I've known about Furbish for a while, but never really took a close look at her merchandise until today. I was impressed, Furbish has so many great gift ideas and amazing accessories to add in a home. Check out those soap gems! Those would look so cute in an apothecary jar in the bathroom! If you're in the Raleigh, NC area, drop by her shop, I bet it's incredible.

Shine your light!

Just browsing around tonight and came across some amazing lamps from Burke Decor. I need a floor lamp for our living room. We bought an older home and the living room offers no overhead lighting. I haven't found the perfect floor lamp yet, but these lamps would make great statements on any table!

This little guy would look so cute in a kids room!

I would love to hear of any great sources for floor lamps..Im on the hunt!

Product Reference: To soothe your January blues

Why do we start a brand new year in such a cold dreary month?! Imagine if New Year's took place in the spring... the year ahead would just seem so much more exciting, wouldn't it? 

I've found some ways to add a little cheer in the mean time, while we wait on spring.

Fresh flowers and clean scented candles (no more seasonal pumpkin spice or sugar cookies!)

Will asked me the other day why I'm wearing so much gray and black.  I started noticing after that, that we dress so dark this time of year, so I started adding pops of color to my attire and it really does lift my spirit! Try it!

Oh...here's some more cheerful news....Polomaria (the handmade paper jewelry I posted about recently) is offering 10% off for you my sweet friends, until V-day!

May I recommend...

Some fabric? Fabric.com should seriously start paying me for all these references I keep giving them, but until I find somewhere better, I'll keep spreading the word. (By the way..if you know of any great fabric websites, let me know!)

Hope these fabrics inspire a new project!
