A Few Random Bits + A (Really Fantastic) Giveaway

First up the giveaway, because it's just so good I can't wait until the end of the post to share.

Remember yesterday when I told you how cool Michelle is? Well double that, as she has offered to give the incredibly lovely Virginia Johnson scarf above to one of my readers... you know because it's spring, and it's a holiday weekend, and some of you might even have the day off today, so clearly a giveaway is in order.

Just leave a comment on this post by end of day Thursday, April 8th for a chance to win, and I'll announce a winner next Friday...

Man, I want that scarf for myself...I'm just sayin ;-)

Next up, my mild obsession with this table setting from V.O.D.’s party for Erin Wasson's jewelry line Low Luv...

In particular, I'm obsessed with how they mixed succulents with ranunculus and anemones (which I’m not sure I would’ve thought to do)...oh and those orange trays too, and the vases, and that zebra, and well...pretty much the whole thing makes me crazy. So pretty. Love it all.


Last up, this picture of the girlies... They seem so grown-up and serious, I can't help but smile every time I see it. But it also makes me a smidge wistful. Man babyhood is fleeting, no?

Hope you all have a splendid holiday weekend! Don't eat too many chocolate bunnies...or wait, go ahead and eat them, life is short after all (see I told you I was feeling wistful!)

Barchbo said...

Do you love that the girls look so much alike? My sister and I were often mistaken for twins so I suppose I think that is just part of the sister experience - everyone's knows who your sister is just by looking! If I had to girls, I would want them to look alike (and of course be darling like yours!)

PS: Beautiful scarf - thanks for intro'ing me to a new designer!
