If you were hoping for a big makeover this Monday, I am sorry to let you down. I get diyed out too! lol
I am just sharing a couple of new things that I have gotten for our home. I found them all at different times and places but I just haven't shown them off yet.
The first are these pillows that I found at Target this past weekend. They were on clearance for only $6.48 each! I love how they play off the stripes of the chairs.
The second is this bust that I found in an antique store. I spent $45 on her but I have never seen a bust so unique and truly stunning.
The third is a pair of pictures that I found at the Goodwill. I found them while digging through a huge stack trying to find the missing pieces to my recent art wall in the dining room. I saw one of them and then later saw the other, realizing that they went together, I was so excited! I wish I knew the history better of these but I know the boy is called "Little boy blue" and they were done by the famous English portrait artist Thomas Gainsborough.
I hope you like my new treasures!

love all the pops of yellow and the umbrella stand, so cute!!
I just purchased those pillows from Target. . . for double the price. I'm super jealous you found them so cheap! I'm using them on my back patio. . . hopefully I will post some pictures of that part of my house SOON!
those pillows are perfection for those chairs!
Love your new pillows. They look great against the striped chairs!

I LOVE the "Pinkie" and "Blueboy" paintings. My grandmother had them hanging over the bed I used to sleep in at her home. They are by different painters. This blog has a little of the history. (Some believe "Blueboy" is a young Napolean..."
