This weekend I was enjoying the sunshine by planting up my urns with Wilmas and Primula's grown by www.eighteenacresltd.blogspot.com

Fresh Rosemary

I'm getting 4" rosemary plants in this week. They look beautiful in a kitchen and there is nothing like cooking with fresh rosemary. They are also hearty for outdoor planters and you can plant them now.

Price: $1.80

Email me with your order: ritchies_ab@yahoo.ca

Fresh Cut Pillows

I was feeling inspired last night and apparently energetic so I whipped up these throw cushions.

Loving the punch of colour for spring!

(I will probably move these into our bedroom)

Inspiration

I'm loving all of the things that www.bellemaison23.com picked out at the 2011 Las Vegas TradeShow. The mix of old, new, rustic, sparkle and bright pops of turquoise. I'm feeling inspired for my spring decor.

Another Year Older

Celebrating my wonderful 27 years of life this weekend with my amazing family and friends!

My verse for myself this year is

"Be joyful always"

1 Thessalonians 5:16

My hubby took me down town to a special place that gives out special blue boxes tied with beautiful satin ribbon and we picked out a piece inscribed with

"JOY"

because I'm sure I will forget

My Friday Treat

Loving this gold leaf headband. I'm dreaming of wearing it with a white linen sun dress on the beach, barefoot and loose curly hair... summer can't come fast enough.
