Latest Obesession

Not that I need another "thing", but I have been noticeably enamored with vintage mercury glass ornaments. If you know me, you know I love vintage and and I LOVE color. And I love pretty and shiny, too... just for the record. *cough*

 

 

 

I've been on the hunt for them this year... I need them specifically for my little white tree I have in the front room. It's pretty much my favorite place in the house right now, so it's pretty important business. ;) I've been lucky; I found a box of small ones at the last Junk in the Trunk market I went to. I also found a couple of vendors at The Brass Armadillo who had some real cuties (and really delightful displays, too). I lucked out and found a couple of boxes at the local Goodwill today (This is when it's pretty awesome living near a lot, a lot, a lot of old folks).

 

It's feeling merry around here! How's the decorating coming along for you?

 

 

 



The Blues.

While unpacking the (new, spring...yay!) goodies I bought at Old Navy today, I realized not only did I buy three tops for myself (I was supposed to be picking up tees for the kiddos. Only. Oopsie!), but they were all shades of aqua.

Which reminded me of the thrifted coffee table I painted last week... (Pay no attention to the boy contained in a pile of stuffed animals on the couch. He interrupted my shopping and lunching plan by throwing up at school. He's perfectly fine now, of course.)

Which led me to my mantel stand-in (AKA the top of my entertainment center)...

and then to the spring-ish vignette I've been working on (Still a work in progress. Don't judge!).

Not to mention the four rooms in my house that are also various shades of happy blue. So I learned a little something about myself. I had no idea I was so obsessed!
What about you? What's the color you're drawn to lately?

UPDATE: Ok, yes. I see that my blog is also this color.
