healing stones

Inspired by the color and the healing power of crystals and stones, I have decided to gather my stones and learn more about them over here.  After last week, and the recent tragedy in Boston, I find myself and my faith needs some healing.

I am adding another stone, white selenite.

Do you have a collection that has a special meaning?

Is there a rock that you cling to when you might need a little comfort or healing?

clear blue

Inspired by a recent clear blue sky, I decided to add some blue to my life.

I took this image on a walk last Saturday.Clear blue-skies before the leaves start to show their green.

Take time to look up and see the sky above you.
Inspired to look up?

whale watching

 Inspiration came to me in the form and color of a whale.

 I ordered a whale gray sofa for our kitchen lounge area.

 The walls in the space are white.

 The table is white.

 I plan to arrange a gallery wall of artwork.

I love this space how minimal it is and how boys love to build forts as they pretend to be on whale watch.  Love the magic carpets and all that light for watching whales and star gazing too.


Have a great weekend.

dreaming in anjou

 Found this sweet glossy earthenware anjou cookie jar here.

Hence my craving and dreaming in anjou colored began.

 Care to join me here, just look at this lovely anjou yellow tufted Cecil Beaton illustration?

I found the perfect shade of anjou dress to wear to the party.  I think I need to find some silk taffeta and dust off the sewing machine.

What a sweet party party favor or invite to a party of Joy.

Could be for any sort of celebration, right?

Who needs an occasion?

Love the idea of giving a "process color" mug to my guests.

Something about anjou that radiates sunshine.

Rise and shine and bring your own sunshine to the party!
