It is a chilly, rainy Random Saturday over here.
So I am on the sofa with my coffee and laptop getting a little work done
before getting a little of the other work on my list done.
Which brings me to my first random thought.
Gold rimmed Wine Stems
Can you fall in love with a gold rimmed wine glass?
I am thinking that the answer is yes.
I am working on photographing a table setting for Spring and some of these
gorgeous wine glasses arrived the other day.
I unwrapped the first one -and yes, it was instant love.
I feel about a dozen different table setting ideas with these coming already.
Rain, Rain
It is raining here. As in- it is RAINING.
We need it of course, but I am wondering why it is that you always forget about that
1 thing that you should have remembered to put away or cover up AFTER
it has been thundering, lightening and pouring all.night.long.
Incidentally, I think with the sound of the rain landing on the roof last night,
I slept better than I have in a loooong time. Insanity.
It really truly convinces me further that I need to live close enough to the beach
to hear the waves all night long.
Am I right? 😉
Camellia Blooms
I clipped a few branches off our camellia tree yesterday to bring indoors to enjoy. I snapped a quick photo for instagram- but you can bet I had to do a fun styling in the living room with them. I will share more this next week.
Marble, oh Marble
I continue to get so many questions about the marble counters and how to choose the right counters, the right marble, etc.
I worked with Arizona Tile on finding the right counter material for me
and they put together a great post about choosing the right countertops
and even included little old me in the post.
(not compensated to share- but it is good info)
A Fresh Look in the bedroom
Feeling like a fresh look for your bedroom? I shared a few ideas for bedding over at the HomeGoods blog this week- including some very bright and colorful ideas.
I will leave you with a little sneak peek of a project we have been working on…
mainly because I know you guys love those little teases so much 😉
It is a makeover…
and a little leopard might be involved.
And gold.
And white.
Oh…and a chandelier.
Stay tuned for the where we started with this one…
( I’ll give you a hint- it wasn’t pretty.)
And the how it is looking now- a lot prettier 🙂
coming in the next week or so.
Happy Random Saturday everyone!

Pretty flowers and gorgeous bedding. I sleep better when I can hear the rain, too. It is wonderful.
