Favorite Things...a weekend at the "beach cottage"
A few of my favorite things this weekend...
We finally had a weekend at our "beach cottage" rental
without any big plans for a change.
So I finally started my Spring cleaning
& "found" my beautiful Kitchen Aid mixer & vintage blender.
I can't wait to get these up to The Farmhouse in our
remodeled kitchen (see the vision here).
I also had a chance to go to two local flea markets
this weekend...more like community garage sales. I found
a couple cool items:
{please excuse the ugly dark grout in our rental kitchen}
a Fire King bowl that I've always coveted,
but is generally out of my price range
some local Meyer lemons ~ yum!
a cute fish bowl
with a world of opportunities to fill it up
a bunch of really cool frogs for $0.10 each ~ best bargain ever!
and a couple heart cookie cutters
to add to my small collection
I also finished my first {make-believe}
product packaging design
~ Tin Roof Farmhouse ~
Vintage Market
Soy Votives
maybe someday it will be a reality!
What were your favorite things this weekend?

Five Faves for Friday...Beach House Accents
With summer just around the corner I've been dreaming of
the beach & the sunshine.
The last week has been amazingly hot & I've been
inspired to update our "beach cottage" with more beach accents.
Here are my favorite quick fixes to create a beachy home...
{shells}
shells in bowls, jars or on shelves
{rope}
rope, twine all weathered & worn
{maps}
dreams of road trips & traveling to exotic locations
{driftwood}
washed, weathered & sun drenched
{aqua}
the perfect accent color for a beach style home
