A Few Favorite Things

Hello friends.  I hope your weekend is going well.  We all know how busy weekends can get.  Often times full of activities, chores and unwanted errands which frequently leave no time for ourselves.  

It is so important to set-aside a few minutes of a day to decompress, to take a deep breath and enjoy the very things that are meaningful to us.  We work so hard to achieve our individuals goals that we often forget to take in all the beauty that surrounds us.  

A simple smile, a pretty flower or a beautiful sunny day.  And when I find that house chores will consume most of my day, I try to squeeze in a few minutes to relax, listen to some music and stage a little area in my home with things that make my day a bit brighter.  Things that touch my heart, besides my adorable pooch Max who never fails to put a smile on my face.

So today, I am sharing a few photos of a sweet vignette I put together this morning.  Some recycled stock flowers from last week that are still just as vibrant and beautiful, a few vintage linens in shades of purple and lavender and my favorite lady who I lovingly named Esther after my mother-in-law who gave it to me a few years ago.

House chores got done today.  A bit slowly I must admit, but nevertheless complete.  Lunch and dinner were made and most importantly, surrounded by all the lovely things that make our house a home.

Now tomorrow will be a day to enjoy a stroll by the beach.  Perfect ending to the weekend.  

Thank you for stopping by.  May you all have a great Sunday.

Hugs,

Janet
