Montauk Nest Chair : West Elm

Pigeon Toe : Bubble Terrarium

last christmas, my childhood friend Audrian, made terrariums for all of the women in her family. i went shopping with her to find the most lovely glass containers.. and since then.. i have noticed them everywhere ive been! 


i just saw these over at Pigeon Toe.. they are so beautiful and are definitely on my wishlist!!
i want to hang them everywhere! in a sunroom, a kitchen window, a porch.. ahhh! i love them!
(& even better.. theyre made of recycled glass!)

daisies are the friendliest flower :)

happy daisy day!

snowy day = newfound favorites!

late thursday night, we were hit with a huge SNOW!.. which led to 3 wonderful days of being snowed in! :) so..... with LOTS of free snow time.... i have lots & lots to share with you :) a few weeks ago on my trip to chicago, i found these fantastic Manhattan Chair Bookends & fell completely in love..! along the way to sharing them with you... i found a few other happinesses that made my life smile :)  enjoy!!
