Finally...Instagram...

Finally, I have Instagram and thought I would share some pictures I have been taking today.  I have been really terrible about posting, but, I am working full time now and just don't have the time I used to.  I am 'out of the groove' so to speak.

I hope everyone is enjoying spring here in this part of the world, though I know, Down Under its fall.

Have a great weekend!

Lots of flowers on my walks and interesting architecture -

also my Dad's cute cat named 'Little' -

I know I'm late to the Instagram game, but, I'm loving it!

WOW! This is new...INC bedding collection

I found some GREAT bedding at Macy's and didn't realize that the clothing design company 'INC' has created a new home bedding collection.  This collection called 'Bloom' is particularly sophisticated- I couldn't find other pictures except these two.  What do you think? Will you buy these for a client or your own home?

I love the mix of white with the colors and the black
and white - very elegant

A night view still looks great and the furry pillow adds
texture -

These look fresh and modern to me, and gives a
designer lots of options to mix colors.


Have a great day!

Dear Design Diary...bedroom love...

I have to admit I LOVE lounging around on Sunday mornings and if it goes into the afternoon, oh well right?  Love having my coffee while I blog and surf the net.  Now its time to actually get some things done ,so before I shower and go off shopping and hit the beach for a much needed long walk, here is a beautiful bedroom I wouldn't mind hanging out in.  LOVE the pinks and florals - do you? And please feel free to check out all my Pinterest boards here.

What are you doing today??

A close up of...

Scooter the cat! When I got roses last Saturday, Scooter wanted to get close to the flowers in my little photo studio and as you can see, posing ensued! I just started snapping since he hardly sits still when I want a photo! I was thrilled with the results. Thank you for visiting and welcome new followers this week!! I so appreciate your support -

I know I'm biased, but what a cute subject!!

Power of Pink

With the colder weather I thought a pretty picture of a flower I took in the summer might be more interesting to look at!

I will think about a fall photo soon, but not yet.

Creampetal China

I love, love this china and can't seem to eat a meal without using one of these beautiful dishes that are so special. I found them in an antique store a year ago and they are still my favorite. Lovely pink and grey flowers with lots of green.

What a beautiful flower...I went into a store and admired them on display, so the woman working there gave me two to bring home. They stayed in full bloom for 2 weeks...
