Egg Dyeing: Martha Stewart Living

I spotted this over on Black Eiffel and had to post...of course Martha Stewart has Apps and she just came out with the Egg Dyeing 101 App.  I mean just look at the plaid egg - are you kidding.  I'm so in love!! Who knew egg dyeing could be so classy. It's only $ .99 and you can purchase it here and for those of you who don't have an iPhone (like me) you can see instructions from the app at Black Eiffel...enjoy!  Happy almost Easter!

Reagan Ranch

I'm sorry for all the short post this past week, I've been in Santa Barbara, Disneyland and LA for a long weekend.  I'm delayed now in LA and thought I would post a quick picture.  We had a lovely time touring the Reagan Ranch and learning about my favorite President.  We received the Royal Tour, it was pouring rain and every time Royalty came to the Ranch it rained.  I'll be up and running tomorrow...Happy Monday!!

Steven Moore Designs

Okay, Steven Moore is amazing!  I think that is all I need to say.  Steven Moore is a couture gown maker, floral and event designer, cake artist and wedding coordinator.  He is one of the most talented designers I've even seen, his work takes my breath away.  Here is just one of his weddings that caught my eye and had me talking about him all weekend.  His studio is in Bellingham but he works out of Seattle and will travel anywhere...Happy Monday!!

Ronald Reagan: Forever!

So in honor of my trip to the Reagan Ranch next week, I thought I would post on one of my favorite new things...a friend of mine sent me the new Ronald Reagan Forever stamps and I've been loving them.  They add an extra something special to every card I send out.  You can purchase them here at United States Postal Service.   Happy Weekend!!

Karen Appleton

I love paintings and artwork and like I've mentioned before I'm very french country, so paintings of roasters, anything floral, french, antique, anything from pigs to cottages is right up my alley but I loved these paintings that I stumbled on over on Simplesong by Karen Appleton.  What fun paintings for a powder room or even a walk in closet...perfection!!


Happy St. Patty's Day!

I think everyone needs to head to Trophy Cupcakes today and grab a few Guinness Stout Cupcakes with Irish cream Butter cream in honor of St Patrick's Day.  Their Red Velvet cupcakes will be "Green Velvet"...how perfect!  Don't forget to wear green!!

The Boat Street Cafe: Seattle Secret

I'm in love with The Boat Street Cafe and can't believe this weekend was the first time I got to experience this amazing little spot.  It's nestled  into a hidden courtyard right above Seattle's waterfront.  It has floor-to-ceiling French doors, twinkling lights, white washed walls, farmhouse chairs, charmed with simple french culinary treasures, with black slate tables, fresh flowers, bead board, chalkboards...I just adore this place and to top it all off, amazing service and food.   It would be a perfect brunch spot, dinner or after dinner coffee and a romantic little hideout.  I'm in love and can't wait to go back.  Happy Monday!

Glam Silly Bandz

Okay, I promise I'm not a huge fan of Silly Bandz but I do have little nieces and always around little kids and these are the newest fad even for the girls in my college small group.  I thought the Kardashian Glam pack of Silly Bandz was a fun idea for a gag gift, bachelorette party gift, fun little treats for a gift package....the pack includes a perfume bottle, kiss lips, a high heel shoe, Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe, sunglasses, a diamond ring, a purse and how could they not include DASH, Glam, and the letter K!!  Have a fabulous day!

Gingham Thank You Cards

I'm obsessed with gingham...these Thank You Cards are out of this world cute from Stripe & Field (and how adorable is that name).  Okay, okay so they are a little pricey at $28 dollars for 8 note cards with envelopes, but if you think about it...any thank you cards at the store are at least $3-$4 dollars.  Look at the colors...ahh, I must order some today.  So cute!  I'm going to be thanking people for the silliest things, just to send out a card.  Happy Wednesday!!






Shoes I'm Loving

Two posts in a row on shoes, I couldn't resist.  I adore these BCBG comfortable but flattering shoes and think they are perfect for the Spring and Summer.  You could throw these on with anything from jeans to a fabulous dress.  You can purchase them over at Piperlime for $118.00.  Happy Tuesday!

You all know that I'm just obsessed with bows so these little girl flats from J.Crew were a must post for me.  I adore these and they are only $68 dollars which I know isn't cheap but for J.Crew shoes that's actually  not bad.  They also come in a white - - perfect for weddings!!  Happy Monday!!
