Ready for Easter...

Bucket (this is actually wine spittoon)

Tea Pot
So here is a fun decor, grab some things you have at home (silver bucket:antique find, tea pot:Lenox) and just input the seasonal item. So for easter, found these adorable stick egg tree's at target for .99, yes .99! Talk about some cheap decor.

Have I mentioned how much I love tea pots, tea cups, anything tea! And they can serve as adorable decor. More on that later, as that should be a post in itself.

Orchids...

Home Decor

Home Decor

So now for some home decor...Love orchids, but people often say how demanding they are. Well yes, there are easier plants to care for but, I have a successful tip for these: Ice! Yes, ice. Feed them a few cubes of ice every other day. Orchids cannot have too much water, and not too little, so a few melted ice cubes are just right. I created this decor myself  (pot: potterybarn, put 2 orchids). For this size I usually put 4-6 ice cubes.





STYLE

And, on another note: Today is International Women's Day! March 8th! So in honor of that DVF is having a sale, check out the email I got. So Happy Shopping and of course Happy International Women's Day!

Fun Read...



Obviously love Kate Spade, so had to get the book that just came out (Kate Spade Things We Love). Not only a great read, but serves as some adorable decor. As mentioned before the right books are great to decorate the home! So aside form the coffee table, or trays, they also look great on some indoor garden stools. These ceramic elephants are my favorite! I got them at a small home boutique in Miami about 2 years ago, unfortunately the store closed shortly after. I have not seen them since, other than in home decor magazines.

Mexico Home Finds...



Book Shelves - another post on that one later, for now: the silver mirror behind the tray was a Mexico find.


Serving Piece - thought this would be great with some cheese or dips and crackers



My favorite find: chevron pots. So they had these super huge, unfortunately they were not willing to ship, so had to take what fit in my luggage



Pewter Tray: Always useful!

A little late but here they are.... hoping to have them decorating the home before posting but haven't had a chance to buy some plants for the pots...

Store Opening...



So today a Jcrew opened 2 minutes from my house. Of course planned a dinner date with a friend to go check it out. I could not be more excited, the other one in Miami is in a busy mall, and not by my house so I often resorted to ordering online. Although open 24/7, going to the store is often times better. The best part its across from Anthropologie, my 2 fav stores right next to each other, this should make for some quick trips to the mall!
