Outfit Post - Absinthe

Up until a few years ago, I firmly believed that I could not wear the color green, as I was certain it washed me out and gave my skin a yellow cast.  Until I discovered this particularly vibrant shade (kelly green, maybe?) that brightens up my face and makes my eyes look peacock blue.  Now I'm totally in love with it ;-)

Do you have a particular shade that you like to wear?

Outfit Post - Butterfly Garden

I love the colors of this dress, and it has huuuge pockets, but it needed a little "something", which is why I was so delighted to discover this pretty collar at The Market Darling.  It's just what I needed!  The print is a pretty paisley made up of butterflies and polka dots, so I whipped up a pair of earrings to match as well.  You can purchase a pair in my shop here.

Home Ec Post - Chez Moi, Part Deux

As promised, here is the follow up to this post featuring a little peek into my home!

I love to repurpose items.  Curtain rods as jewelery displays, scarf holders and headband racks.  Fabric stretched into embroidery hoops to display earrings and brooches.  Cheese graters as earring displays.  Your only limit is your imagination!

Part of my hat collection..

..more hats..

...umm, yeah.  Hats.

Hat forms, so I can make my own hats!

Bird under glass

I stretched fabric across the back of this frame and added a ribbon so I can change out the pictures with the seasons.

My Phonograph <3

My typewriter (on which I plan to write the great american novel..)

My phone (and to be honest, the only reason I still have a landline ;)

Embroidery hoop + Fabric = A great way to display earrings..

..or brooches!

Curtain rod + Scrap of rug rolled into a tube makes a great headband display.

Curtain rods also work as scarf displays..or..

..with curtain hooks to display necklaces

Another easy earring display, frame with mosquito netting stretched across the back..

..or an old cheese grater!

That's it!  Thanks for taking a tour of my home with me :)  If you'd like to take a peek at some of my inspiration, you can go to my "for the home" pinterest board here.
