A little more lovely to share from around the house today.
Someone asked about the fuzzy jacket I wore in my video
the other day…it’s called the Oslo jacket by Laundry.
My sister has been purging her closets, and up for sale
is this custom-made large tote by Bent Tree Design
which was never used.
Lovin the quality of the bag and the fact it’s one of a kind.
Also making its debut in my video is
this new oil painting by artist Cindy Austin!
Sometimes Cindy offers up original art
for a song on her beautiful blog.
This is one of those pieces I love no matter
where I place it.
Burlap Luxe
I am so grateful Dore Calloway of Burlap Luxe alerted us
to this Smith & Hawken box on sale at Target!
I found one, followed her instructions for sanding,
and wound up with this attractive finish (below).
Merci, lovely Dore!
(Dore also has a most charming online shop!)

Inside the box is a rosary blessed by the Pope,
a gift my sister brought back from the Vatican.
Another item spied on Burlap Luxe was this gorgeous title:
by Josephine Ryan
(Ryland Peters & Small, 2013)
Familiar with British designer Josephine Ryan’s work?
I was not.
Just. So. Romantic.
Last but not least is a wee lil’ pig found
in an antique mall’s basement.
He said he’d huff and puff until
I brought him home to reside
on a driftwood sailboat.
Home he came.
One more lovely in case you missed the last post:
adorable mini business/calling cards for 10% off
when you use this code.
Today was the first day I went out without
wellies in what feels like a year.
I do believe it’s time to
get our spring break
ON.
Peace to you right where you are.

J'aime aussi, Michele. Am coveting the fuzzy coat and have fallen for the little piggy! Happy Saturday to you! XO
i love it when a trend brings back sweet memories of the 70s like these shaggy cropped coats!
GORGEOUS!!!!!!!! Your pictures are D R E A M Y!!! Love them:)
I had a coat similar to this. I guess someone threw it away! Sad.
Have a blessed Sunday, sweet Michele.

So many lovelies 🙂 I have a couple of Josephine Ryan's books, and even visited her former shop in London. That painting very charming!!! I love it propped just the way you show it. xoxo L
Ahhhhhhh! Michele, love it all… and i was wondering about the furry jacket too, it's wonderful. This room is the best…

Oh wow, my computer must have been whack yesterday, because i didn't really see all of this post, and some of the beautiful images… Josephine Ryan's work is insanely cool… wow! Love your business cards, and the little pig – also in love with those rough pottery plates of Dore's … and actually Dore too – she is so special. Thanks for the plug about my artwork too! I like "Night light" at your house…
