valentine’s day cards that rock

Love these homemade cards I found at Etsy by Uluckygirl. There are other cute choices at her shop too! They aren’t pink or red, but that can sometimes be overrated on Valentine’s day. I haven’t found the perfect card yet for my Valentine, but I’m certainly on the hunt! Have a great weekend!

HAPPY FRIDAY!!

things i saw, things i love

Starting today, I’ve decided that every Friday I’m going to write a post about things I’ve seen in the blogging world and have loved the moment I saw them. I got this idea from my new fave blog You Are My Fave. It’s such a great idea, and a great way to shout it out about things I’ve seen and things I love. I click through blogs so quickly and see so many things I want to share. This will be my way of showing you some lovely finds I’ve made during the week and hopefully introduce you to some new blogs you don’t know about yet!

Here goes my very first post of things I saw, things I love…

home office organization seen over at design*sponge

simple and delicious “the easiest chocolate chip cookies on earth” (and a refreshing looking glass of milk) from the lovely blog desserts for breakfast

Thank you, thank you honey and jam for leading to me to this adorable little necklace by Lisa Leonard. Precious!

Somewhere over the rainbow print via hooray design. What a neat bit of inspiration.

Pillows a plenty, pillows galore. I love pillows and Bright Bazaar gave me a glimpse into West Elm’s spring collection. Loving all the prints and textiles.

Cute as a button cake pops made by Melanie over at The Sweet Life. I want to try some of these!!

And my most most most faaavorite is this. Yes, that. Right up above these words you are reading. Eggs benedict? Is that you? I think it is and I LOVE you!!! Meet mowielicious, a food photography blog that will knock your socks off.

Well, that’s my week in favorites. I’ll be back next week with some new finds and new loves!

iomoi

Do you know about iomoi? Oh my heavens, do I love iomoi. I am actually quite surprised I haven’t told you about it yet. It’s just one of my favorites. This is such a wonderful place for all things monogrammed. Terrific for gifts for loved ones, and even yourself on occasion! I love their address labels most– have bought them for friends, and even have a pattern of my own.

“iomoi is the go-to destination for your lifestyle: for you and for your gifting needs. A luxury, lifestyle brand, iomoi is defined by a timeless aesthetic with a modern twist and a wink.”

Here are some other really nice gift ideas (for a friend, or for yourself!):

super fun coasters

golf balls!

adorable matchboxes

custom stationary

pretty, pretty scarves

canvas pillows

and my personal favorite, personalized address labels

…I mean really, the possibilities are endless. And adorable!!
