Fresh Picks: May 2011

Happy May! We can’t believe it is already May… not sure where April went it flew by so fast!

Our schedules are packed full this month with the new house we are rehabbing, revamping A Design Story, helping my sister-in-law and brother get settled into their home here {which means decorating too}, starting and finishing up some projects around our casa, planting a family garden at my brother’s house and a few design projects locally. BUSY, but exciting!

In order to get the month started out right, it’s time for the Monthly Favorites…

Here’s the Breakdown…

1. Nautical Pillow by Amazon

2. Eco Garden Cup by Patina

3. Pear Canister by Z Gallerie

4. Place Mat by Crate & Barrel

5. Flower Cook & Serve Containers by Patina

6. Bird Tea Light by Patina

7. Votive Candles by Calypso @ Target

  • ☀️ Sea + Sun + Smiles We drove across the state last week for a vacay with family! Had a great time and I was so in the moment, I only took a few photos! We had incredible weather and basically lived our best lives all day on the beach and in the pool together! . . I have had a few messages asking where I have been on insta…. The truth is, I have been soaking up time with my kids, working on a few home updates and spending as much time at the beach and in our pool
