Hi everyone, hope everyone enjoy there Mothers Day Weekend!! I spent Mothers Day at my favorite beach in Jupiter,Fl where i grew up, It was nice to be able to share that with my children.

Beautiful new bedding for the guest bed, I love having options.. the very first thing i do when i buy new linens are wash them, then over dry them using several dryer sheets, to make really soft ..
a beautiful new scarf from a dear sweet friend Tracie, i love this scarf and knew exactly where it was going to go.
my daughter bought me new feathered earrings for mothers day , and my husband bought me the pillow and the new linens..
in these photos you can kinda get an idea of the layout of the whole bonus room.
in this picture the Rug is an old Prayer Rug, it is badly torn, and faded..Perfect for me!!

the two smaller white sofas are the kids and my husbands, they spend most of the nights up here.
here are some photos of some sleeping boxers i bought from Forever 21...very shabby chic , very comfortable, i live in boxers and white tee shirts at home..
Hope everyone has a Great Week !!!

How wonderful that you were able to share your childhood memories with your dear children, there is nothing so special. My children still love to hear the stories of "when I was little".
Today again your posting is just lovely - it is like browsing my favourite magazine with all my favourite things. I just love the way you couple everything with another of my favourites - flowers. Pure joy to look at.

I love the boxers too! Chubby or not they would look cute on most any of us blogger girls!! Your room looks perfect for lounging. Happy Mothers Day.

French Countryside Farm said...

Your photographs are Magazine worthy.

Just by looking at your home, I can see that you are a romantic at heart. Your home projects a sense of calmness. It's so BEAUTIFUL.
I visit your blog to relax my eyes.

I have a similiar persian rug that I purchased years ago. I have always wondered what purpose this rug served since it's relatively small. Now I know.

Thank-you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Very pretty. I have to remember your washing instructions for softness.

How nice that you can bring your kids to where you grew up, the beach is a beautiful place to share memories!

Some of the stuff you have done on here are ideas still in my closet! They look awesome!

I love fabric, and I search high and low for any piece of clothing with a great print on it.

The sleeping shorts are to die for!

Love it all,

Love those mushy ruffly bed linens...YUM! I've been enjoying your blog for a while now. I love that you are so true to your style. I tend to be a bit more eclectic and all over the board, but I guess that's my style, right? LOL!

How often do you hear I just love your boxers, but it is true, they are just so pretty, I would wear them as shorts too. I am just loving your flowers, do you have large gardens? If so I would love to see more, we live on 6 1/2 acres of farmland turned grass and I am looking for ideas on how to turn my football field into a garden oasis.

Laura said...

Wow! So many stunning photographs. So many beautiful and exquisite pieces - I love them all. Your blog is truly inspirational. Thank you.

Can you tell me - Do you use flash when taking photographs indoors? Thanks
