Friday Favs: Feeling Salty
Friday Favs: Feeling Salty
Feeling a little salty but not necessarily for the reasons you may think. Last week my husband started feeling poorly and on Friday tested positive for Covid. He’s find and recovering well but I succumbed to the virus earlier this week. It’s been a week of disappointments as we had to skip a weekend out of town that we had been looking forward to since September. My husband’s dream has been to see George Strait in concert before he retires so we were thrilled that Charlotte was one of his stops a very limited 2024 tour. Unfortunately he wasn’t well enough to go but we were blessed enough to sell the tickets and get a full refund.
I had to cancel some important meetings and put off some fun social events as well. And needless to say between caring for him and then getting sick, I haven’t had much time to create. But I have had quite.a bit of screen time so I did pull together some favs to kick off the summer. Leaning into blue and a coral-red to try to chase away my blues!
Cheers to the weekend, summer and hopefully good health! Thanks for taking a look around and drop a comment below and let me know what you think. Hopefully I will be feeling better next week as I have some new projects on the horizon.
Friday Favs: Got the Blues for You!
TGIF! We are back after a week off for rest, Easter celebrations and time with family. Here are some things that caught my eye this week.
Love these salad plates and hoping to complete this collection soon! Plus this tiger cowrie seashell napkin holder is perfect for summer entertaining.
Marie & Oakley necklaces perfect for spring and summer whether you are sporting a white tee and jeans or a lovely summer dress. Just added this necklace to the collection.
This pale blue ceramic vase would be great as a kitchen utensil holder.
I have a major crush on Tom Ford and anything he designs. Loves this robin egg blue bag! It also comes in a chalky white.
Compared to the Tom Ford bag, this white bag by Ganni is a steal!
On the hunt for the perfect frame for this oyster watercolor painting of mine.
I have been eyeing this Marin dinnerware from Crate & Barrel for a while and think it would be a perfect complement to our salad plates.
How cute is this Blue Onyx Pinch Bowl from Terrain?
Speaking of crushes, I’m swooning over anything from Serena & Lily and fell in love with this wallpaper.
This Bumblebee Spoon Rest from Anthropologie is too cute!

Friday Favs: Something Blue
We got the blues for you! Everything that caught my eye this week had a common theme, BLUE. I am always drawn to the colors of the sea but this week cobalt caught my eye. Hope you find something you like!
“To See Takes Time”, a book honoring Georgia O’Keefe, is one of my favorite gifts from my husband. This artist would paint her subjects over and over and I have been leaning into that process with my photography, art and jewelry.
This Blue Floral Iron Triple Taper Holder by Terrain would be so lovely for Easter or anytime of the year.
I think this Blue Blooms Iron Wreath from Terrain would be great both in your home or on your front door.
These Floral Blues Linen Napkins by Terrain, again, are perfect for Spring or Summer. Can you tell I’m becoming a huge fan of Terrain?
I took this photograph of a Butterfly in the gravel driveway of my husband’s childhood home. I could not believe how long it posed for me and a huge reminder that even with a broken wing she is still beautiful and can fly. If you would like a print, send me a message.
I pinned this How to Make an Ombré Shell Wreath DIY a ways back and still have not gotten around to making one. Now that I have some free time on my hands, I think I will add this project to my list.
As always, I am including a shameless plug for Marie & Oakley. These necklaces in Apatite, Pearl and Aquamarine are perfect solo or stacked with a white tee and your favorite jeans for spring.
I love this unique table setting and would welcome any of these items to my tablescaping collection.
How cute is this Clare V. Blue & White Gingham Tote?
