Peonies for Breakfast!

Evelette and I really thought our new bunch of Peonies looked good enough to eat this morning! However then we would have lost our gorgeous centerpiece. ; )

It's my first bunch of peonies of the season, with Oregon's mild spring they came a bit later this year, but they were definitely worth the wait.

I can see how some people make a living taking pictures of flowers. Gorgeous!

Pretty Pretty Flowers!

I am so excited for this Easter Weekend! We will be coloring eggs, helping out with the church Easter egg hunt and having a yummy Easter dinner at my sisters. I am especially excited for Evie this year because she will be able to participate a lot more and get as much Chocolate for Mama as possible!

I found these amazing flower images from photographer Julia Hoersch, and I knew I had to share them with you all.
Happy Easter my Luvs!

Heather

I love Heather! The plant that is!
Doesn't this arrangement make you want to smile?! I love how Heather blooms so much and how it will last forever in a vase. I thought it would be perfect to put in my new trophy vase from Goodwill.

Here's another Goodwill gem! More flowers please!

Here's how to do it

Many of you mentioned that you would like to know how I made those flowers that I used for the pillows. So I thought I would share the link.

There is a wonderful tutorial on how to make them here. The tutorial is actually for smaller flower pins but seeing that I look at everything and how it can be used for design I changed it up a bit. I made much bigger ones for the pillows. My sister and my Mom and I made some of the smaller ones for headbands and sweaters for the babes. Aren't they cute! Just don't look to close! ; )

Monday at My Home

Some minor changes this weekend.....
I rearranged some pillows.

Evelette and I had fun picking up some pine cones in our backyard and displaying them in a pretty Anthro bowl.

Bouquet of pretty flowers we got from Saturday Market.

I put up new curtains that my Mom and I made together! I love how they turned out, now I just need to find chairs to replace the burgundy ones! And then host a fabulous dinner party!!!! Yahoo!

Monday at My Home

I was going to say that this is a really random selection of pics from Monday at My Home but come to think about it, they always are! I have had a crazy busy weekend, so I just went around my house shooting some pics.
This is a bouquet from a beautiful wedding we went to this weekend. My husband was a groomsmen and he looked smashing. Evie was adorable in a black tutu and pink high tops, totally punk rock style. Why can't I ever remember my camera! Agh!!!

This is the cutest dish towel ever from Anthro that I got on sale for $5! I am kicking myself for not getting a couple more!

I have already shown you this beauty by our front door but I had to snatch another pic of it. ; )

We have his and hers pedestal sinks in our master bath and this one is mine. When we first moved in the walls were all peach! Ick! I am still totally in love with the brown we chose, it makes the white pop!



Happy Monday! Luvs!
