Hello dear readers! I had a great weekend, hope you did too! Started off with quality girl time with my sister-in-law. Of course we went to TJ Maxx - after eating sushi. Ahh, it's good to be queen. At TJ Maxx, I bought the cutest little yellow, lacquered box. I love lacquered boxes, but they are usually too expensive for me. This one was $29 marked down to $4! It had a little damage that I was able to fix. I love giving new life to an orphaned, unloved piece!
Behold the perfect little yellow box on my bookcase. When a new piece comes in, it's time to rearrange - as you already know. I spent my Saturday morning with music blaring, a cup of my favorite Colombian coffee and I did my favorite thing. Rearranged vases and art. I am really digging yellow. Yellow is going to be big, big, big this Spring! You heard it here first. I really love it with pink. But remember, a little yellow goes a long way.
Hey, BTW, color psychology works. I've been feeling quite lethargic since Christmas. I wanted some energy and wanted to lighten up my apartment - you know to make it happy. What could do the trick easily, quickly and cheaply? Why yellow, of course! It worked! I was productive and happy today. Saturday evening I spent with my favorite cousin and her sweet dogs. I've been thinking seriously about getting a puppy, but poop and pee kinda freak me out (may get a cat instead). I am in love with my cousin's dog. She's the sweetest dog in the world. Saturday night I felt thoroughly loved, so grateful and slept really well. .
Like my sister-in-law, my cousin is generous and gives me the most beautiful gifts. This is a door hanger she bought me. In my favorite color - hot pink - of course. Here it is with one of my purses (also a fab gift from my sister-in-law) and some of my scarves. I love it! What a great way to satisfy my addiction to textiles! So romantic too.
Some of my vases with a cute yellow bowl. I added a bracelet to my tall vase. Love the repetition of shapes.
And look what I found! Pink dish soap! Got it at Family Dollar. Because everything should be beautiful. Even the most mundane object. I almost hate to use it!
Hope you had a great weekend! Stay tuned for some exciting posts this week. More about my apartment, my art and fun fashion stuff too! xxoo
